Lesson Overview
About this worksheet
Dividing by a fraction means multiplying by its reciprocal – the keep, change, flip method. This worksheet builds that skill from straightforward computation to measurement and sharing word problems, with every answer simplified.
The reference box and Section A are on page 1. The reference box shows keep-change-flip with two worked examples. Section A has six division problems mixing fractions and whole numbers. Section B on page 2 has four word problems about a recipe, a board, a jug of juice, and mowing lawns.
Page 3 is a complete answer key that shows each quotient and the setup for every word problem. The worksheet pairs well with the Multiplying Fractions by Whole Numbers and Simplifying Fractions worksheets.
