Multiplying fractions word problem activities combine two of the biggest challenges students face in math: fractions, and word problems.

Students first learn about fractions as parts of a whole. But they also need to understand how to complete math operations when fractions are involved.

These word problems present real-world scenarios where students will need to multiply fractions to find their answer.

In this lesson, students will use the Polya process and create visual models to solve challenging word problems. And, they’ll engage in collaborative inquiry to deepen their conceptual understanding of multiplying fractions. (Common Core Standard 5.NF.B.4)
