This Grade 3 challenge worksheet extends number lines past 1 using CCSS 3.NF.2. Students plot fractions greater than 1 like 5/4 and 7/3, compare points on different-denominator lines, and identify missing fractions between given neighbors. Multiple-choice and fill-in questions help Grade 3 learners see that 4/4 equals 1, 6/3 equals 2, and 3/4 is greater than 3/6 on the number line.
