Sample problems

  1. 1/8 ÷ 2 = 1/16
  2. 5 ÷ 1/2 = 10
  3. 7 ÷ 1/6 = 42
  4. 5 ÷ 1/7 = 35
  5. 1/4 ÷ 3 = 1/12
  6. 1/3 ÷ 3 = 1/9
  7. 3 ÷ 1/2 = 6
  8. 7 ÷ 1/4 = 28

These eight are one sample at medium difficulty — the generator makes a different set every time.

A worked example

1/8 ÷ 2 = 1/16

  1. Splitting 1/8 into 2 equal pieces makes each piece 2 times smaller
  2. 8 × 2 = 16, so each piece is 1/16

Every problem on the answer key can show its steps like this — turn on “Show steps” before downloading.

About these worksheets

Fractions and decimals are where a small slip in one step changes the whole answer, so the worked steps matter. Every sheet is generated fresh, so you can print a new one on the same skill as often as you need — different numbers, same difficulty.

Pick how many problems you want and whether they should be easy, medium or hard, then download a PDF with a matching answer key. The key can show the worked steps for every problem, which is what a parent needs to see where a wrong answer went wrong.
