Fascinating Fact:

One third of 60 minutes is 20 minutes, the perfect amount of time for a power nap or a short TV show.

In 11 Plus Maths, fractions help pupils understand equal parts, sharing, and proportions. They are a key part of learning to compare, simplify, and convert numbers.

Key Terms

  • Fraction: A way to show a part of a whole, such as one third written as ?.
  • Denominator: The bottom number in a fraction that shows how many equal parts make up the whole.
  • Numerator: The top number in a fraction that tells how many parts are taken or used.

Maths Quiz - Fractions 3 (Very Easy) (Answers)
1. In an election, 30,000 people voted. If one-quarter of them voted for the Blue Party, how many did not vote for the Blue Party?
[x] 22,500
[ ] 20,000
[ ] 7,500
[ ] 10,000
1?4 of 30,000 voted for the Blue Party. So, 30,000 ÷ 4 = 7,500. That means 30,000 - 7,500 voted for other parties. 30,000 - 7,500 = 22,500
2. What does 15⁄11 − 7⁄11 equal?
[ ] 2⁄3
[x] 8⁄11
[ ] 3⁄4
[ ] 4⁄11
If the denominators (bottom numbers) are the same, you can subtract by simply subtracting their numerators (top numbers). 15?11 ? 7?11 = 8?11
3. If 12⁄16 of the class like football. What fraction of the class do not like football?
[ ] 1⁄3
[ ] 8⁄16
[x] 1⁄4
[ ] 4⁄12
If 12?16 of the class like football, then 4?16 of the class do not like football because 12 + 4 = 16: this can be simplified to 1?4 by dividing by 4
4. What does 9⁄21 + 5⁄21 equal?
[ ] 3⁄4
[ ] 1⁄3
[ ] 1⁄2
[x] 2⁄3
If the denominators (bottom numbers) are the same, you can add by simply adding their numerators (top numbers). 9?21 + 5?21 = 14?21 BUT this can be reduced to 2?3 if you divide the denominator and the numerator by the SAME number, in this case 7
5. What is the value of this fraction: 6⁄28
[x] Six twenty-eighths
[ ] Sixth twenty-eighths
[ ] Six twenty-eights
[ ] Six twenty-eights
Numbers followed by th, st or rd (as in, fourth, first or third) are known as ordinal numbers. The denominators (bottom numbers) in fractions are almost always ordinal numbers
6. Which one of the following fractions is NOT the same as 1⁄5
[ ] 2⁄10
[x] 6⁄40
[ ] 4⁄20
[ ] 8⁄40
6?40 could be simplified to 3?20 which is smaller than 4?20 which is the same as 1?5
7. If you eat 2⁄9 of a pizza, how much pizza will be left?
[ ] 1⁄3
[ ] 1⁄4
[x] 7⁄9
[ ] 7⁄18
There are nine ninths in 1. If you have eaten 2?9, there can only be 7?9 left because 2 + 7 = 9: if the denominators are the same, you can add/subtract the fractions by simply adding/subtracting their numerators
8. Which one of the fractions below is the biggest?
[ ] 2⁄12
[ ] 3⁄18
[ ] 4⁄24
[x] 7⁄28
All the other fractions can be reduced to 1?6 which is smaller than 7?28 or 1?4
9. Which one of the fractions below is the smallest?
[x] 9⁄36
[ ] 6⁄18
[ ] 10⁄30
[ ] 2⁄6
The three wrong answers can be reduced to 1?3 which is greater than 9?36 or 1?4
10. Which one of the following fractions is the same as nine-twelfths (9⁄12)?
[ ] 2⁄3
[ ] 5⁄6
[x] 3⁄4
[ ] 1⁄2
If you divide the denominator and the numerator by the SAME number, you can reduce the fraction to its simplest form. In this case, you divide the denominator AND the numerator by 3
