Tips & Strategies

  • For addition/subtraction, always find the common denominator first
  • To compare fractions, cross-multiply: a/b vs c/d compares a×d with b×c
  • For multiplication, multiply straight across (numerator × numerator, denominator × denominator)
  • Always simplify your answer by finding the greatest common divisor
  • Start with Easy mode to build confidence before advancing
  • Focus on accuracy first-speed will improve naturally with practice

Frequently Asked Questions

The Fraction Game is an educational math game that helps you practice fraction operations including addition, subtraction, multiplication, and comparison. It's designed for students learning fractions and anyone wanting to sharpen their math skills.
Select a difficulty level (Easy, Medium, or Hard), then click 'Start Game'. You'll be presented with fraction problems to solve. Choose the correct answer from the options before the timer runs out. Earn bonus points for speed and correct answer streaks!
Easy mode uses same denominators with addition and comparison. Medium mode introduces different denominators and subtraction. Hard mode includes all operations including multiplication, with more challenging numbers and less time.
To add fractions with different denominators, first find the least common denominator (LCD). Convert each fraction to an equivalent fraction with the LCD, then add the numerators. For example: 1/2 + 1/3 = 3/6 + 2/6 = 5/6.
To compare fractions, convert them to have the same denominator, then compare numerators. Alternatively, convert to decimals. For example, 3/4 vs 2/3: 3/4 = 0.75 and 2/3 ≈ 0.67, so 3/4 > 2/3.
Simplifying a fraction means reducing it to its lowest terms by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor (GCD). For example, 6/8 simplifies to 3/4 because both are divisible by 2.
To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together for the new numerator, and multiply the denominators together for the new denominator. Then simplify if possible. For example: 2/3 × 3/4 = 6/12 = 1/2.
