7th Grade Decimals Independent Work Packet

It is always a good strategy to review essential skills with your students, and this is right up there with the most essential!

This fun real-life fractions exercise deals with a situation adults (especially those of us with OCD) have all faced - how to hang pictures on a wall with equal spaces between each picture. Students will face this real-life situation where they will use addition of fractions, subtraction of fractions, multiplication of fractions and division of fractions to hang these pictures equal distances apart. The exercise gives practice with proper fractions, mixed numbers, improper fractions, converting between mixed and improper fractions, obtaining the LCD, simplifying fractions etc.

• Fractions are important for all students
• Fractions are tough for many students
• Fractions are often not very exciting to most students
• Fractions are too often removed from "the real world".
