Identify unit fractions
A unit fraction is the name given to a fraction where the numerator (the number on top) is 1.
So ½ is a unit fraction as is ⅐ and ⅛ but ⅖ is not because it's numerator is not 1, it is 2.
One reason unit fractions are interesting is because they are the reverse of the "integers" (that is, the whole numbers). When integers are written as fractions they are always the integer value over 1. So 2 is written 2/1 and 3 is written 3/1.
Another interesting fact is that if you multiply ½ by 2/1 you get 1, and this is always true when you multiply an integer as fraction by it's inverse unit fraction. If you think about it, it is quite intuitive: half of 2 is 1 and one third of three is 1, and a quarter of 4, etc., they are always 1.
Actually, you can expand that rule to say that any fraction multiplied by itself reversed will equal 1.
This topic asks you to identify unit fractions, but also fractions that can be simplified to unit fractions. To simplify a fraction, you divide both it's numerator and it's denominator by the same number. For instance, 3/9 (three ninths) can be simplified by dividing both numerator and denominator by 3 to give 1/3 (one third). Three ninths and one third are called equivalent fraction because of this, and if you think of three ninths of a number compared to one third of a number, you will see that the answer is the same.
With our Duck shoot math game you will be practicing the topic "Identify unit fractions" from 3rd grade / Fractions / Name fractions. The math in this game consists of 14 questions that ask you to identify unit fractions and fractions that simplify to unit fractions.
DUCK SHOOT is a fun game to learn math where you attempt to knock over all the fairground ducks in each level. In the first level there are only 6 ducks but by level 10 there are 24 fast moving "quackers quacking"...
After each level, win an additional 20 points by correctly answering a math question from your selected topic. There is no timer in this game: take as long as you like to answer the math questions correctly for a best score to get you on the DUCK SHOOT leaderboard.
Notes
- This is a fun game of knocking over as many tin ducks as you can
- Also suitable for tablets and mobiles (it's actually more fun than with a mouse)
- Answer math questions correctly for a higher score
- No timer element, you can relax and concentrate on getting your math right!

'Identify unit fractions' for 3rd grade
DUCK SHOOT is a fairground themed game of knocking ducks off the rails to win points.
- In each level of DUCK SHOOT, knock over as many ducks as you can.
- Drag the orange ball back and away from the ducks then let go.
- This will release a flying ball that will shoot towards the ducks (hopefully).
- Any duck the flying ball hits will fall off the rail.
- You get 5 points for each duck you hit.
- You lose 5 points for each duck that escapes.
- When all the ducks have been knocked off or have exited the screen, you get a math question from your selected topic.
- Answering the question correctly adds 20 points to your score.
- A wrong answer takes 10 points away from your score.
- In each level there are more ducks.
- Your final score is a combination of the number of ducks you hit minus the number that escaped, plus the points you get from the math questions.
- There is a high score leaderboard for each topic.
