I made this to revise the topic of algebraic fractions for my middle set Y10 class. It covers a mixture of short sections on expanding brackets, factorising into single and double brackets, simplifying algebraic fractions and adding and subtracting algebraic fractions. Useful for a mixed ability class, as pupils can start where they feel they are comfortable and work from there. Sorry, no answers provided yet.

This is a great way to be prepared for the start of the school year. There are a ton of great resources including review, new material, and loads of quizzes, practice tests, and study guides.
