Missing Operations With Signed Decimals
Written by Adi Ackerman, Head Teacher
"Missing Operations With Signed Decimals" is written for 7th Grade (Ages 12-13), and it covers Common Core 7.NS.A.3. A 6th grader who is already steady on rational numbers can use it too, and an older student can use it as a short review.


7th grade math worksheet: write plus, minus, times or divide to make signed decimal equations true, such as 5.8 and negative 2.7. Answer key included. Part of our mixed rational number operations collection. Aligned to Common Core standards.
How do I use this worksheet?
Use the decimals and fractions sheets first, then add grouping. The missing operations sheets work well as a short warm up, and the own numbers task works well as a take-home page.
What students will practice
- Students will test the four operations to find the one that makes an equation true.
- Students will calculate with positive and negative decimals.
- Students will check each answer by working the equation again.

What does this worksheet teach?
⌄
Write plus, minus, times or divide to make signed decimal equations true, such as 5.8 and negative 2.7. The directions on the page read: Write +, −, × or ÷ in each circle to make the equation true. An answer key is included.
Can I use this mixed rational number operations worksheet for homeschool or classroom?
⌄
Yes, both. We made it for 7th grade rational numbers, and it works the same at home or at school. At home, a student can work through it alone and then go over it with you, which shows quickly what is solid and what needs another look. In class it works as independent practice, homework or a warm-up, and you can print one copy or a full set.
What is the order of operations with signed numbers?
⌄
Work inside parentheses first, then multiply and divide, then add and subtract. The same order holds for negatives, fractions and decimals. Rational Number Operations With Grouping practices all of it.
Do all the sheets have answer keys?
⌄
6 of the 7 do. Numerical Expressions From My Own Numbers has students use eight numbers from their own week, so there is no single answer to print.
What are the missing operations sheets?
⌄
Students write plus, minus, times or divide in each circle to make an equation true, such as 5.8 and negative 2.7 to make 8.5. There is one sheet with signed decimals and one with signed fractions.
