Comparing Fractions
Part A: Fill in the Blank
Write the missing word or number on each line.
1. In Grade 3, 1/3 is less than 1/2 because thirds are smaller than halves.
2. Grade 3 fact: 2/4 is equal to 1/2 because two fourths equals one half.
3. In Grade 3, 3/4 is greater than 1/2 because three fourths is more than half.
4. Grade 3 learners say 4/8 is equal to 2/4 because both equal one half.
5. In Grade 3, 5/10 is equal to 1/2 since 5 is exactly half of 10.
6. Grade 3 rule: 1/6 is less than 1/3 because sixths are smaller pieces than thirds.
7. In Grade 3, 6/8 is greater than 1/2 since 6 is more than half of 8.
8. Grade 3 practice: 1/4 is less than 1/2 because fourths are smaller halves.
9. In Grade 3, 3/6 is equal to 1/2 because three sixths is exactly half.
Part B: Matching
Match each item on the left to the correct answer on the right.
1. Match each item to its correct answer.
Grade 3: 1/3 vs 1/2
→ smaller than one half
smaller than one half
Grade 3: 2/4 vs 1/2
→ equal to one half
equal to one half
Grade 3: 3/4 vs 1/2
→ greater than one half
greater than one half
Grade 3: 1/6 vs 1/3
→ smaller than one third
smaller than one third
