Instructions
One of the first skills a student should learn with fractions is how to reduce fractions. There are several series of worksheets on this site dealing with reducing fractions that gradually introduce more complex fractions. This set of worksheets requires reducing fractions to simplest form, but the starting fractions are always proper. The series of worksheets here have increasingly larger denominators that make finding common factors more challenging as the students abilities increase.

Reducing fractions is another skill involved in just about any of the fraction operations. The fraction worksheets on this page introduce reducing gradually by providing problems with increasingly more difficult denominators, and only gradually introducing mixed numbers and improper fractions.
The last set of worksheets deals with commonly encountered fractions, including percentage values. These are values that students should be able to ‘site reduce’ when they encounter them. Mastering these reducing problems will make many other fraction problems go much faster.
