Mathematics
This Grade 7 mathematics worksheet gives students practice finding unit rates when quantities are expressed as fractions. Across 10 real-world word problems, students determine rates for scanning products, swimming, plant growth, travel, cleaning supplies, recipes, and household consumption. Nine items are multiple choice, and one is multiple select. Students must divide a fractional amount by a fractional or whole-number time, interpret the resulting units, and distinguish between a quantity per unit and its reciprocal. The problems include rates such as meters per minute, jugs per week, classrooms per minute, and minutes per classroom, helping students connect fraction division to practical situations. This free printable worksheet includes a complete answer key and is designed for Grade 7 math practice, independent work, review, or formative assessment.

This Grade 7 worksheet helps students find and interpret unit rates by dividing fractional quantities by fractional or whole-number amounts of time. Its 10 real-world problems use nine multiple-choice questions and one multiple-select question, requiring students to identify rates such as 125 meters per minute, 1/6 gallons per day, or 15 minutes per classroom and match each answer to the correct units.
Begin by modeling one problem, such as finding products per second when a clerk scans one product every 1/2 second, and emphasize that the answer must be expressed as products per second. Then have students solve related problems involving fractional times and quantities, such as swimming, bamboo growth, or milk consumption. Ask students to explain whether their result describes a quantity per unit or the reciprocal units, especially before they complete the multiple-select janitor problem.
Students may choose the reciprocal rate, such as seconds per product instead of products per second, or report a correct number with the wrong units. They may also divide in the wrong order when finding rates such as 2/3 of a jug in 4 weeks or 1/3 of a classroom in 5 minutes. On the multiple-select item, check that students recognize both requested forms—1/15 of a classroom per minute and 15 minutes per classroom—rather than selecting only one.
The worksheet is available on Wayground as a printable PDF and as a digital quiz, and it includes a complete answer key for the 10 unit-rate questions. You can grade printable submissions by scanning student work with the Wayground for Teachers app, or review responses through the digital quiz.
Use the worksheet’s Advanced Settings to adjust font spacing or increase the font size so the fractional values, units, and answer choices are easier to read. You can also apply a dyslexia-friendly font or translate the unit-rate word problems into another language while preserving the worksheet’s multiple-choice and multiple-select format.
