Grade 4 Comparing and Ordering Fractions Practice Test

Build Grade 4 Math skills with five 10-question practice tests on comparing fractions, ordering fractions, equivalent fractions, benchmarks, and number lines.

Comparing and Ordering Fractions Practice Tests

These Grade 4 Math practice tests help students compare and order fractions. Students use common denominators, common numerators, equivalent fractions, benchmarks such as one half and one whole, and number lines.

Skills covered

  • Comparing fractions with the same denominator
  • Comparing fractions with the same numerator
  • Using equivalent fractions to compare unlike denominators
  • Using 0, one half, and 1 as benchmark fractions
  • Ordering fractions from least to greatest or greatest to least
  • Locating and interpreting fractions on number lines

How to use these practice tests

When denominators match, compare numerators. When numerators match, the fraction with the smaller denominator has larger pieces. For unlike denominators, use equivalent fractions or compare each fraction with a benchmark. A number line can also show which fraction is farther to the right.
