Comparing Basic Fractions

Students compare twenty pairs of fractions and write the greater than, less than or equal sign between them. The pairs on this page share a denominator, so the work comes down to comparing numerators, for example four fifths against two fifths. It is a good first sheet for a comparing-fractions unit, with an answer key included.
