Fraction representations and number line Worksheet | Year 5 Maths (ACMNA102) - Free Printable

Let’s go step by step to fill in the “Drawing” and “Number Line” columns for each fraction.

We’ll do one row at a time.

---

Row 1: Fraction = 2/10

- Drawing: Draw a rectangle or circle divided into 10 equal parts. Shade 2 of them.
- Number Line: The number line is marked from 0 to 1, with 10 equal spaces (since denominator is 10). Count 2 marks from 0 — that’s where 2/10 goes. Put a dot or X there.

Note: 2/10 can be simplified to 1/5, but since the problem gives it as 2/10, we’ll use 10 parts on the number line.

---

Row 2: Fraction = 1/5

- Drawing: Draw a shape divided into 5 equal parts. Shade 1 part.
- Number Line: This number line has 5 equal spaces between 0 and 1. So each mark is 1/5. Put your mark at the first tick after 0.

Wait — look again! In the image, the number line for 1/5 only shows 5 segments? Actually, looking at the original worksheet layout, each number line seems to have different numbers of ticks depending on the denominator.

But let’s check carefully:

Actually, in the provided table, each number line appears to be drawn with enough ticks to match the denominator of the fraction in that row.

So for 1/5 → number line should be split into 5 equal parts → mark at 1st tick.

For 4/7 → split into 7 parts → mark at 4th tick.

And so on.

Let me verify each:

---

Row 3: 4/7

- Drawing: Shape divided into 7 equal parts, shade 4.
- Number Line: Split 0 to 1 into 7 equal parts. Mark the 4th tick.

---

Row 4: 3/4

- Drawing: Shape divided into 4 equal parts, shade 3.
- Number Line: Split into 4 parts. Mark the 3rd tick.

---

Row 5: 6/8

- Drawing: Shape divided into 8 equal parts, shade 6.
- Number Line: Split into 8 parts. Mark the 6th tick.

Also note: 6/8 simplifies to 3/4, which is same as previous row — but again, since the problem says 6/8, we use 8 parts.

---

Now, here’s how to draw them simply:

✔ For drawings: Use rectangles or circles. Divide evenly. Shade correct number.

✔ For number lines: Each segment between 0 and 1 is divided into [denominator] equal parts. Count [numerator] steps from 0.

You don’t need to simplify unless asked — just follow the fraction given.

Final Answer:

Here’s what to put in each box:

Fraction | Drawing | Number Line

→ 2/10
Drawing: Rectangle split into 10 equal vertical strips; shade first 2.
Number Line: On the line with 10 ticks between 0 and 1, put a dot at the 2nd tick.

→ 1/5
Drawing: Circle split into 5 equal pie slices; shade 1 slice.
Number Line: On the line with 5 ticks between 0 and 1, put a dot at the 1st tick.

→ 4/7
Drawing: Rectangle split into 7 equal horizontal bars; shade top 4.
Number Line: On the line with 7 ticks between 0 and 1, put a dot at the 4th tick.

→ 3/4
Drawing: Square split into 4 equal smaller squares; shade 3 of them.
Number Line: On the line with 4 ticks between 0 and 1, put a dot at the 3rd tick.

→ 6/8
Drawing: Circle split into 8 equal wedges; shade any 6.
Number Line: On the line with 8 ticks between 0 and 1, put a dot at the 6th tick.

💡 Tip: You can also write the fraction label next to the dot on the number line if allowed.

All done! Just make sure your divisions are even and you count correctly from zero.
