Please remember if you don’t have a printer you can copy into your maths book or onto paper. Try and complete as best as you can. 

When you have finished use the answer sheet to mark your work. 

Things to remember 

• Remember the denominator (the bottom number) tells you how many equal parts you divide the whole into.  So if you are finding 2/3 the 3 will tell you how many rows you need in an array or that you will need 3 sections in a bar model.
• Perimeter means the distance all the way around the shape.
• Don’t forget to exchange a ten for 10 ones or 100 for 10 tens to help you divide numbers equally.
