Dividing Fractions Assessment - 2 Versions - Video Support

This comprehensive assessment evaluates students’ understanding of dividing fractions through a carefully sequenced mix of numeric problems, visual models, equations, and real-world applications. Students demonstrate procedural fluency by dividing fractions and mixed numbers, while also showing conceptual understanding through area models, comparison questions, and contextual reasoning.

The assessment includes two parallel versions designed for flexible classroom use. One version can be used as guided practice or a study tool, while the second serves as a secure in-class assessment. Problems move beyond routine computation by asking students to interpret division situations, solve for unknown values, analyze visual representations, and apply fraction division to geometry and real-world contexts such as measurement, rates, sharing, and area.

Because the tasks require students to justify results across multiple representations, this resource measures both how students divide fractions and why their solutions make sense. It works especially well as a culminating assessment after instruction on fraction division, helping teachers identify strengths in reasoning as well as procedural gaps.
