By Class 7, fractions are no longer just “part of a whole” — your child now adds fractions with different denominators, multiplies and divides them, and meets negative fractions (rational numbers) for the first time. That jump is where many children who were fine in Class 6 start to feel unsure. What helps most is short, regular practice with instant feedback, so a small mistake gets caught before it becomes a habit.

This free printable worksheet has 12 questions from Bmathpro’s own question bank of 10,500+ validated maths questions — the same bank our enrolled students practise from. The questions start easy and get gradually harder, and every answer comes with a one-line explanation, so you can check your child’s method, not just the final answer.

Set aside 15–20 minutes, keep the answers hidden until the end, and let your child attempt every question — a wrong attempt tells you more than a skipped one.

What this worksheet covers

• Adding and subtracting fractions with different denominators
• Comparing and ordering fractions (including negative fractions)
• Multiplying fractions and finding the reciprocal
• Dividing fractions (multiply by the reciprocal)
• Word problems with fractions in everyday situations

Maps to the CBSE Class 7 Fractions and Decimals / Rational Numbers chapters (NCERT) and equivalent ICSE/State-board units.

1. C. 3/5 — same denominator: the larger numerator wins.
2. 3/5 — same denominator: add the numerators.
3. B. 12 — the LCM of 3 and 4 is 12.
4. 1/2 — (2 × 3)/(3 × 4) = 6/12 = 1/2.
5. 5/6 — common denominator 6: 3/6 + 2/6 = 5/6.
6. 7/12 — common denominator 12: 9/12 − 2/12 = 7/12.
7. C. < — cross-multiply: 8 < 9, so 2/3 < 3/4.
8. B. 7/3 — flip the fraction to get the reciprocal.
9. C. 11/15 litre — 5/15 + 6/15 = 11/15.
10. B. 4/15 — 1 − 5/15 − 6/15 = 4/15.
11. 6 — 9/10 ÷ 3/20 = 9/10 × 20/3 = 6 bows.
12. D. 1 — using sixths: 5/6 + 4/6 − 3/6 = 6/6 = 1.

How to use this worksheet at home

• Keep it short and calm. 15–20 minutes beats an hour of pressure.
• Watch the “divide by a fraction” step. Check your child multiplies by the reciprocal — the classic Class 7 slip.
• Praise the method, not the marks. (We deliberately don’t put marks on our worksheets.)

FAQs

Is this worksheet free to print?
Yes — free to use and print at home, no sign-up needed.

Which syllabus does it follow?
Standard Class 7 fractions and rational-numbers work — CBSE (NCERT), ICSE and State boards.

My child was fine with fractions last year but is struggling now. Is that normal?
Very normal — Class 7 adds different denominators, division and negative fractions at once. A dip is common and closes with guided practice. A free demo class can pinpoint the gap.

Where can my child get more practice like this?
Enrolled students get Math Gym, our paid practice app with 10,500+ questions — see our courses page.
