Grade 3 Equivalent Fractions Practice Test

Build Grade 3 math skills with five 10-question practice tests on equivalent fractions, visual models, equal amounts, scale factors, and missing fraction parts.

Equivalent Fractions Practice Tests

These Grade 3 Math practice tests help students recognize fractions that name the same amount. Students use fraction models, number lines, equal parts, and scale factors to connect fractions such as \(\frac{1}{2}\) and \(\frac{2}{4}\).

Skills covered

  • Recognizing equivalent fractions in visual models
  • Using equal parts and number-line locations
  • Multiplying or dividing the numerator and denominator by the same number
  • Finding missing numerators and denominators
  • Connecting equivalent fractions to everyday measurements
  • Explaining why equivalent fractions represent the same amount

How to use these practice tests

Complete one 10-question test at a time. Compare how many equal parts are counted and how many equal parts make the whole. If both numbers are multiplied or divided by the same factor, the fraction can keep the same value.

1. QuestionMultiple choice

A strip shows 12\frac{1}{2} shaded. Which fraction names the same shaded amount when the strip is split into 6 equal parts?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: A

The correct answer is 36\frac{3}{6}.

  1. Read the fraction model: Identify the numerator and denominator in each fraction.
  2. Use the same-size parts: Half of 6 equal parts is 3 parts, so the same shaded amount is 36\frac{3}{6}.
  3. Check the choice: The correct choice is 36\frac{3}{6}.

Half of 6 equal parts is 3 parts, so the same shaded amount is 36\frac{3}{6}.

2. QuestionMultiple choice

A model shows 23\frac{2}{3} shaded. Which fraction is equivalent when each third is split into 3 smaller parts?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: B

The correct answer is 69\frac{6}{9}.

  1. Read the fraction model: Identify the numerator and denominator in each fraction.
  2. Use the same-size parts: Splitting each of the 3 parts into 3 gives 9 total parts, and 2 thirds becomes 6 ninths: 69\frac{6}{9}.
  3. Check the choice: The correct choice is 69\frac{6}{9}.

Splitting each of the 3 parts into 3 gives 9 total parts, and 2 thirds becomes 6 ninths: 69\frac{6}{9}.

3. QuestionMultiple choice

Which fraction represents the same amount as 35\frac{3}{5}?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: C

The correct answer is 915\frac{9}{15}.

  1. Read the fraction model: Identify the numerator and denominator in each fraction.
  2. Use the same-size parts: Multiplying both numbers in 35\frac{3}{5} by 3 gives 915\frac{9}{15}.
  3. Check the choice: The correct choice is 915\frac{9}{15}.

Multiplying both numbers in 35\frac{3}{5} by 3 gives 915\frac{9}{15}.

4. QuestionMultiple choice

Which fraction is equivalent to 47\frac{4}{7}?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: D

The correct answer is 814\frac{8}{14}.

  1. Read the fraction model: Identify the numerator and denominator in each fraction.
  2. Use the same-size parts: Each seventh is split into 2 parts, so 4 sevenths becomes 8 fourteenths: 814\frac{8}{14}.
  3. Check the choice: The correct choice is 814\frac{8}{14}.

Each seventh is split into 2 parts, so 4 sevenths becomes 8 fourteenths: 814\frac{8}{14}.

5. QuestionMultiple choice

If both parts of 24\frac{2}{4} are multiplied by 3, what equivalent fraction results?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: A

The correct answer is 612\frac{6}{12}.

  1. Read the fraction model: Identify the numerator and denominator in each fraction.
  2. Use the same-size parts: Multiplying 2 and 4 by 3 gives 612\frac{6}{12}.
  3. Check the choice: The correct choice is 612\frac{6}{12}.

Multiplying 2 and 4 by 3 gives 612\frac{6}{12}.

6. QuestionMultiple choice

Which fraction has the same value as 16\frac{1}{6}?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: B

The correct answer is 212\frac{2}{12}.

  1. Read the fraction model: Identify the numerator and denominator in each fraction.
  2. Use the same-size parts: Doubling the numerator and denominator of 16\frac{1}{6} gives 212\frac{2}{12}.
  3. Check the choice: The correct choice is 212\frac{2}{12}.

Doubling the numerator and denominator of 16\frac{1}{6} gives 212\frac{2}{12}.
