This Grade 7 mathematics worksheet gives students focused practice adding and subtracting fractions and mixed numbers. It contains eight multiple-choice questions: four ask students to find a sum or difference involving fractions, and four extend the same work to mixed-number results. Students calculate each operation and identify the correct numerical answer among distractors that vary in value or representation. Use it for independent practice, a short formative check, homework, or review after instruction on fraction operations. The set helps teachers see whether students can distinguish addition from subtraction, combine the fractional and whole-number parts of mixed numbers, and select an accurate result from multiple choices. This is a free printable worksheet for Grade 7 learners and includes a complete answer key for efficient checking.

This Grade 7 worksheet covers finding sums and differences of fractions and mixed numbers through eight multiple-choice questions. The first four items focus on fraction results, while the final four require students to select correct mixed-number sums or differences, strengthening calculation accuracy and answer recognition.
Model how to identify whether each item asks for a sum or a difference, then demonstrate how to calculate the fractional part before checking the complete answer. Have students explain why they selected an option, especially on the mixed-number items, and use their reasoning to address errors before assigning the remaining questions independently.
Watch for students choosing an answer that matches only part of the calculation, such as the fractional portion of a mixed-number result while overlooking the whole-number portion. Students may also confuse addition and subtraction or select a distractor with a similar numerator, denominator, or mixed-number form instead of checking the complete result.
The worksheet is available as a printable PDF and as a digital quiz on Wayground, and it includes a complete answer key for all eight multiple-choice questions. You can grade printable submissions by scanning student work with the Wayground for Teachers app, or review responses from the digital quiz.
In the worksheet’s Advanced Settings, adjust font spacing or choose a larger font size to make the eight multiple-choice items and mixed-number answer choices easier to read. You can also enable a dyslexia-friendly font or translate the worksheet into another language when those file-level changes support access to the fraction calculations.
