Worksheet: Calculations with 3 Fractions

Three fractions of the same denominator stand in the expression. Adding 3 Terms (Same Denominator) adds all three, while Mixed Addition and Subtraction (Basics) and Mixed Addition and Subtraction (With Borrowing) mix adding and subtracting. An improper fraction in the answer is turned into a mixed number. In the boxed items a numerator inside the expression becomes the box.

Three may stand there, but the arithmetic is two goes taken from the left. Put the subtraction off in Mixed Addition and Subtraction (Basics) or Mixed Addition and Subtraction (With Borrowing), gathering the right-hand two first, and the answer falls below the true figure. Having the child write out the figure from the left-hand two alone makes the slip in order visible.

The work has reached the point of telling adding from subtracting inside one expression. Investigating Patterns of Change moves from arithmetic itself to writing the relation between two quantities laid out in a table as an expression.
