About this worksheet
Dividing 4 by 1/2 asks how many halves fit into 4 wholes: 8. Dividing 1/2 by 4 asks how big each piece is when one half is shared among 4: 1/8. These are the two kinds of division with a unit fraction that fifth graders learn, and this sheet has twenty of them, ten of each kind in a mixed order.
A child writes the answer on the line after the equals sign. Each version has different numbers, and the answer key shows every quotient.
