NC NA Non-calculator and Number and Algebra strand. This number assesses students' ability to add and subtract very simple fractions. Students need two add two fractions (possibly mixed numbers) involving quarters and/or halves, then subtract their answer from a whole number. The answer must be entered in simplest form and will always be less than one.

Convert between improper fractions and mixed numerals

Several problems involving dividing fractions, with increasingly difficult examples, including mixed numbers and complex fractions. 

This question tests the student's ability to identify equivalent fractions through spotting a fraction which is not equivalent amongst a list of otherwise equivalent fractions. It also tests the students ability to convert mixed numbers into their equivalent improper fractions. It then does the reverse and tests their ability to convert an improper fraction into an equivalent mixed number.

Fractions already have a common denominator. Addition and subtraction 50:50 split, when subtracting, the answer is negative half the time. Students shouldn't have to worry about reducing fractions by design.

Fractions don't have a common denominator. Need to find one. Addition and subtraction 50:50 split.

Students seem to not realise that $\frac{a}{b}\times c=c\times\frac{a}{b}=\frac{a\times c}{b}=\frac{c\times a}{b}=a\times c \div b=a\div b\times c=c\div b \times a \ne c \div (b\times a)\ldots $ etc. This question is my attempt to help rectify this.

Divisor is double digit. There is a remainder which we express as a fraction. 

Divisor is single digit. There is a remainder which we express as a fraction. 

A random proper fraction $a/b$ with denominator in the range 2 to 30 is picked, and the student must write $\frac{a}{b} \pi$.

The point of this question is to demonstrate that the correct answer is shown as a multiple of $\pi$ rather than a decimal.

Choice of 2 formulae. The first is a fraction of the form y=(r+x)(1-rx). The second is of the form y=sqrt[(1-x)/(1+x) ]. Rearrange to make x the subject.

Rearrange a complex formula involving squares, square roots, fractions and additions. This is a fixed question with no randomisation.

HELM Book 1.4.3 Exercises: addition and subtraction of algebraic fractions

There are two parts: 

(3x)/4-x/5+x/3 and (3x/4)-(x/5+x/3).

The numbers are randomised to small, coprime, positive integers.

This is a fixed, unmarked, question:

Show that (x1)/((1/x3)-(1/x2))) = (x1x2x3)/(x2-x3)

Given 2 or 3 fractions such as A/(2x+5), add them.

There are 5 possible versions.

Add (a/b).x +/- (c/d) where a,b,c,d are randomised positive integers, and x is a randomised letter.

Simplify (qx+a)/(rx+b) +/- (sx+c)/(rx+b)^2

x is a randomised variable. a,b,c,d,q,r are randomised integers.

Simplify (qx+a)/(rx+b) +/- (sx+c)/(tx+d)

x is a randomised variable. a,b,c,d,q,r,s,t are randomised integers. a,b,c,d run from -5 to 5, including 0. q,r,s,t run from -3 to 3, and can be 0 if the constant term is nonzero, but are mostly 1.

Simplify ax/b +/- cx/d, where x is a randomised variable, and a,b,c,d are randomised integers.
