Grade 5 Fraction of Numbers Worksheets | Free Printables - Free Printable

Let’s solve each problem step by step. Remember: “of” means multiply!

---

1. ½ of 12
→ Multiply: ½ × 12 = 12 ÷ 2 = 6

2. ⅙ of 54
→ Multiply: ⅙ × 54 = 54 ÷ 6 = 9

3. ⅛ of 96
→ Multiply: ⅛ × 96 = 96 ÷ 8 = 12

4. ⅖ of 25
→ First, divide 25 by 5 → 25 ÷ 5 = 5
→ Then multiply by 2 → 5 × 2 = 10

5. ⁴⁄ of 40
→ First, divide 40 by 5 → 40 ÷ 5 = 8
→ Then multiply by 4 → 8 × 4 = 32

6. ³⁄₇ of 63
→ First, divide 63 by 7 → 63 ÷ 7 = 9
→ Then multiply by 3 → 9 × 3 = 27

7. ²⁄₅ of 36
→ First, divide 36 by 5 → 36 ÷ 5 = 7.2
→ Then multiply by 2 → 7.2 × 2 = 14.4
*(But since this is likely for elementary level, let’s check if it should be a fraction or decimal — but 36 isn’t divisible by 5 evenly, so we’ll keep as decimal or mixed number? Wait — maybe they expect exact value. Let’s do it as fraction: 2/5 × 36 = 72/5 = 14 2/5 or 14.4 — both are correct. We’ll use 14.4 unless told otherwise. But looking at other problems, some may not be whole numbers. Let’s double-check all.)*

Wait — actually, in many school worksheets, they design problems to have whole number answers. Did I make a mistake?

Check #7 again: 2/5 of 36 → 36 × 2 = 72; 72 ÷ 5 = 14.4 → Not a whole number. Hmm. Maybe it’s okay? Let’s continue and see others.

8. ²⁄₃ of 21
→ 21 ÷ 3 = 7; 7 × 2 = 14

9. ¹⁄₁₀ of 100
→ 100 ÷ 10 = 10

10. ⁵⁄₇ of 77
→ 77 ÷ 7 = 11; 11 × 5 = 55

Now back to #7: 2/5 of 36. Since 36 ÷ 5 = 7.2, and 7.2 × 2 = 14.4 — that’s correct. But perhaps the worksheet expects fractional form? Or maybe I misread? No, it says 2/5 of 36. So answer is 14.4 or 72/5 or 14 2/5. Since other answers are whole numbers, maybe there’s a typo? But no — let’s assume it’s intentional. In real math, it’s fine.

Actually, wait — let me recalculate all to be sure:

1. 1/2 * 12 = 6 ✔
2. 1/6 * 54 = 9 ✔
3. 1/8 * 96 = 12 ✔
4. 2/5 * 25 = (2*25)/5 = 50/5 = 10 ✔
5. 4/5 * 40 = (4*40)/5 = 160/5 = 32 ✔
6. 3/7 * 63 = (3*63)/7 = 189/7 = 27 ✔
7. 2/5 * 36 = 72/5 = 14.4 → or 14 2/5 — we can write as 14.4 or leave as fraction? Since others are integers, maybe write as mixed number? But instructions don’t specify. Let’s go with decimal for now — but actually, in fractions of numbers, sometimes they accept fractions. However, looking at the format, blanks are probably expecting numbers. Let’s check #7 again — 36 divided by 5 is 7.2, times 2 is 14.4. That’s correct.

But wait — maybe I made an error in assumption. Let me verify with another method:

For any fraction a/b of c: (a × c) ÷ b

So #7: (2 × 36) ÷ 5 = 72 ÷ 5 = 14.4 — yes.

Similarly, #4: (2×25)÷5=50÷5=10 — good.

#5: (4×40)÷5=160÷5=32 — good.

So #7 is indeed 14.4. But perhaps in the context of the worksheet, they want it as a mixed number? 14 2/5. Or maybe just 14.4. Since the student might be learning decimals too, either is fine. But to match the style of other answers (all whole numbers except possibly this one), let’s see if 36 was meant to be 35? No, it says 36. So we’ll go with 14.4.

Alternatively, maybe the worksheet allows fractions. Let’s write it as 72/5? But that’s improper. Better as 14 2/5.

But looking at the original image description — it doesn't specify format. Since most are whole numbers, and this is the only non-integer, perhaps I should present it as a mixed number for clarity.

In many elementary contexts, they teach to write as mixed number when possible.

So 72 ÷ 5 = 14 remainder 2 → 14 2/5.

I think that’s better for a student.

Similarly, if there were others, but there aren’t.

So for #7: 14 2/5 or 14.4 — I’ll choose 14.4 for simplicity, but let’s confirm with standard practice.

Actually, re-examining: in the problem set, #4 is 2/5 of 25 = 10 (whole), #5 is 4/5 of 40 = 32 (whole), #7 is 2/5 of 36 — which is not whole. So it’s intentional. We’ll put 14.4.

But to be precise, let's calculate all numerically:

Final list:

1. 6
2. 9
3. 12
4. 10
5. 32
6. 27
7. 14.4
8. 14
9. 10
10. 55

Wait — #7: 2/5 of 36. Is there a chance it's 2/5 of 35? No, image says 36. So we proceed.

Perhaps the worksheet has a typo, but based on given, we solve as is.

Another thought: maybe "of" implies integer result, but mathematically, it doesn't have to be. So 14.4 is correct.

To avoid confusion, I'll write it as a decimal.

But let's double-check calculation once more:

36 × 2 = 72
72 ÷ 5 = 14.4 — yes.

Okay, final answers:

1. 6
2. 9
3. 12
4. 10
5. 32
6. 27
7. 14.4
8. 14
9. 10
10. 55

But wait — in some curricula, they might expect fraction form. Since the problems involve fractions, perhaps write #7 as \frac{72}{5} or 14\frac{2}{5}. Given that the input uses fractions like 2/5, outputting a mixed number might be consistent.

Let me see the other problems — all results are integers except this one. To be safe, I'll provide the exact value as a mixed number, as it's more precise and matches the fraction theme.

So #7: 14 2/5

Similarly, if needed, but others are integers.

Decision: For consistency with fraction representation, write #7 as 14 2/5.

But in the blank, how to write? Probably as a number. Since the instruction is to solve, and no format specified, I'll use decimal for simplicity in final answer, but note that 14.4 is equivalent.

However, upon second thought, in the context of "fractions of numbers", and since the multiplier is a fraction, the answer can be a decimal or fraction. But to match the style, and because 14.4 is exact, it's fine.

I recall that in many such worksheets, if the division isn't even, they still expect the decimal or fraction. Here, since 72/5 is 14.4, and it's terminating, decimal is acceptable.

So I'll go with 14.4.

But let's list all:

After careful calculation:

1. 6
2. 9
3. 12
4. 10
5. 32
6. 27
7. 14.4
8. 14
9. 10
10. 55

Yes.

Final Answer:
1. 6
2. 9
3. 12
4. 10
5. 32
6. 27
7. 14.4
8. 14
9. 10
10. 55
