About this worksheet

Multiply and divide fractions and decimals, including negatives. Every version has 10 questions, and the answer key prints on the second page.

What your child will learn

  • I can multiply and divide fractions and decimals, including negative ones, and say which side of 0 the answer is on.
  • I can read a fraction with a fraction on top and a fraction on the bottom (a complex fraction) as a division and find its value.
  • I can spot a pair of numbers that multiply to a whole number and use it as a shortcut, and I can work back from a product to a missing factor.

Standard: 7.NS.A.2c, 7.NS.A.3 (complex fractions)

Common mistakes

Your child got the right size but the wrong sign on the answer.
