Add and Subtract Fractions and Mixed Numbers with Like Denominators Worksheet – Grade 4

Add and subtract fractions whose bottom numbers are the same, like 3/8 + 2/8 and 7/10 − 3/10. The easy sheet uses fractions on their own; the hard sheet uses mixed numbers, like 2 1/4 + 1 2/4 and 3 1/4 − 1 3/4, where some questions need a whole to be made or broken. Nothing has to be simplified: the answer keeps the same bottom number, so 2/8 + 2/8 is 4/8. Every answer is a positive fraction or mixed number.

What kids practice

  • Add and subtract fractions with the same bottom number by working with the top numbers only
  • Add and subtract mixed numbers with the same bottom number
  • Make a new whole when the fraction parts add up to more than one, and break a whole when there is not enough to take away
  • See a fraction as a number of equal parts, so 5/8 is five one-eighths
