Mathematics
Grade:
5
Domain:
Measurement and Data
Cluster:
Geometric measurement: understand concepts of volume and relate volume to multiplication and to addition.
Standard:
Relate volume to the operations of multiplication and addition and solve real-world and mathematical problems involving volume. Find the volume of a right rectangular prism with whole-number side lengths by packing it with unit cubes, and show that the volume is the same as would be found by multiplying the edge lengths, equivalently by multiplying the height by the area of the base. Represent threefold whole-number products as volumes, e.g., to represent the associative property of multiplication.
