THE LARGER FRACTION

fractions · multiplying fractions and comparing products

To multiply 2 fractions

THE LARGER FRACTION is a Grade 5 card game for multiplying proper fractions and comparing products. Players draw four cards, arrange them into two proper fractions, multiply, and then reveal their products. The player with the larger correct product wins the round, so students must both calculate accurately and reason about fraction magnitude.

Use it for partner or small-group review when students are practicing fraction multiplication and simplification. Since players build the fractions from random cards, each round produces a new comparison. Create a free Find a Math Game account to generate teacher-ready lesson support for THE LARGER FRACTION.
