Looking for ways to help your children correctly subtract fractions whose denominators are multiples of the same number? This Year 5 Subtract Fractions Discussion Problem is perfect for you. Our questions are designed to get children talking about their answers and their methods of working out, helping to develop their reasoning and problem-solving skills. An answer sheet including an example answer for each question has been provided with this resource. We suggest letting your children mark their own work, or that of a partner, to promote more discussion and self-correction.

Be sure to use our other resources for this lesson too, to make sure children have a strong foundation of knowledge to build upon.
