This Grade 3 worksheet focuses on equivalent fractions on a number line using different partition lines. Students match 1/2 with 2/4, 3/6, and 4/8, recognize that equivalent fractions share the same point, and practice the idea that partitions with more equal parts use smaller unit fractions. Fill-in items and a matching task reinforce common Grade 3 equivalences. Aligned with CCSS 3.NF.3, this sheet prepares students for simplifying fractions and comparing fractions with unlike denominators in future work.

Fractions on a Number Line
Part A: Fill in the Blank
Write the missing word or number on each line.
1. Grade 3: on one line split into halves and another split into fourths, 1/2 equals 2/4.
2. Grade 3: on a line of sixths, the point matching 1/2 on halves is 3/6.
3. Grade 3: 2/4 and 4/8 share the same point on a number line from 0 to 1.
4. Grade 3: the fraction equal to 1/4 on a line split into eighths is 2/8.
5. Grade 3: 3/6 is equivalent to 1/2 when simplified on a halves number line.
6. Grade 3: 4/8 and 1/2 are called equivalent fractions because they share a point.
7. Grade 3: on a line of fourths, the point 2/4 is halfway between 0 and 1.
8. Grade 3: 1/2 on halves lines up with 4/8 on an eighths line.
9. Grade 3: the unit fraction used on an eighths line is 1/8.
Part B: Matching
