Fractions Worksheets for Class 3 — Free Printable PDF
A fraction shows a part of a whole. When we cut a chapati into 2 equal parts, each part is 1/2 (one-half). Class 3 fractions worksheets help children read, write and compare simple fractions like halves, thirds and quarters — and start adding fractions with the same denominator. All PDFs are CBSE/NCERT aligned with answer keys.
The rule, simply
- The top number is the numerator — how many parts we have.
- The bottom number is the denominator — how many equal parts the whole is cut into.
- 1/2 = one-half, 1/3 = one-third, 1/4 = one-quarter.
- To add fractions with the same denominator, add the numerators and keep the denominator: 1/4 + 2/4 = 3/4.
- To compare fractions with the same denominator, the one with the bigger numerator is larger.
Example questions
- Write the fraction of the shaded part: 3 out of 4 equal parts are shaded.Answer: 3/4
- Add: 2/5 + 1/5Answer: 3/5
- Which is greater: 3/7 or 5/7?Answer: 5/7
- A pizza is cut into 8 equal slices. Rohan eats 3 slices. What fraction did he eat?Answer: 3/8
- Subtract: 5/6 − 2/6Answer: 3/6 (or 1/2)
