Grade 3 Comparing Fractions easy sheet 4 introduces benchmark reasoning with one half as the key comparison point. Grade 3 learners decide whether fractions like 2/5, 3/8, and 5/6 sit above or below one half. This Grade 3 worksheet uses sentence correction, fill-in blanks, and true-or-false items to build strong benchmark fraction intuition for confident number sense. This sheet works for homework, warm-ups, or classroom practice stations.

Comparing Fractions
Part A: Fix the Sentence
Each sentence has an error. Rewrite it correctly on the line.
1. Fix the sentence:
In Grade 3, 2/5 are less than 1/2 because two fifths is smaller than half.
Rewrite: In Grade 3, 2/5 is less than 1/2 because two fifths is smaller than half.
2. Fix the sentence:
Grade 3 teachers says 5/6 is greater than 1/2 because almost whole.
Rewrite: Grade 3 teachers say 5/6 is greater than 1/2 because almost whole.
3. Fix the sentence:
In Grade 3, 3/8 compare to half using a benchmark and are less than 1/2.
Rewrite: In Grade 3, 3/8 compares to half using a benchmark and is less than 1/2.
Part B: Fill in the Blank
Write the missing word or number on each line.
1. In Grade 3, 2/5 is less than 1/2 because 2 is less than half of 5.
2. Grade 3 benchmark: 5/6 is greater than 1/2 since 5 is more than half of 6.
3. In Grade 3, 3/8 is less than 1/2 because 3 is less than half of 8, which is 4.
4. Grade 3 learners see that 4/8 is equal to 1/2 since 4 is exactly half of 8.
Part C: True or False?
Read each statement. Circle True or False.
1. In Grade 3, 2/5 is less than 1/2 because 2 is below half of 5.
True False
2. Grade 3 fact: 5/6 is less than 1/2 because fractions with big denominators are small.
True False
3. In Grade 3, 4/8 is equal to 1/2 because 4 is exactly half of the denominator 8.
True False
