Cluster:
Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication and division to multiply and divide fractions.

Standard:
Apply and extend previous understandings of division to divide unit fractions by whole numbers and whole numbers by unit fractions. Solve real-world problems involving division of unit fractions by non-zero whole numbers and division of whole numbers by unit fractions, e.g., by using visual fraction models and equations to represent the problem. For example, how much chocolate will each person get if 3 people share 1/2 lb of chocolate equally? How many 1/3-cup servings are in 2 cups of raisins?

Cluster:
Write and interpret numerical expressions.

Standard:
Use parentheses, brackets, or braces in numerical expressions, and evaluate expressions with these symbols.

Cluster:
Write and interpret numerical expressions.

Standard:
Write simple expressions that record calculations with numbers, and interpret numerical expressions without evaluating them. For example, express the calculation “add 8 and 7, then multiply by 2” as 2 × (8 + 7). Recognize that 3 × (18932 + 921) is three times as large as 18932 + 921, without having to calculate the indicated sum or product.

Cluster:
Write and interpret numerical expressions.

Standard:
Express a whole number in the range 2–50 as a product of its prime factors. For example, find the prime factors of 24 and express 24 as 2 × 2 × 2 × 3. CA

Cluster:
Analyze patterns and relationships.

Standard:
Generate two numerical patterns using two given rules. Identify apparent relationships between corresponding terms. Form ordered pairs consisting of corresponding terms from the two patterns, and graph the ordered pairs on a coordinate plane. For example, given the rule “Add 3” and the starting number 0, and given the rule “Add 6” and the starting number 0, generate terms in the resulting sequences, and observe that the terms in one sequence are twice the corresponding terms in the other sequence. Explain informally why this is so.

Cluster:
Apply and extend previous understandings of arithmetic to algebraic expressions.

Standard:
Write and evaluate numerical expressions involving whole-number exponents.

Cluster:
Apply and extend previous understandings of arithmetic to algebraic expressions.

Standard:
Write, read, and evaluate expressions in which letters stand for numbers. Write expressions that record operations with numbers and with letters standing for numbers. For example, express the calculation “Subtract y from 5” as 5 – y.

Cluster:
Apply and extend previous understandings of arithmetic to algebraic expressions.

Standard:
Write, read, and evaluate expressions in which letters stand for numbers. Identify parts of an expression using mathematical terms (sum, term, product, factor, quotient, coefficient); view one or more parts of an expression as a single entity. For example, describe the expression 2 (8 + 7) as a product of two factors; view (8 + 7) as both a single entity and a sum of two terms.

Cluster:
Apply and extend previous understandings of arithmetic to algebraic expressions.

Standard:
Write, read, and evaluate expressions in which letters stand for numbers. Evaluate expressions at specific values of their variables. Include expressions that arise from formulas used in real-world problems. Perform arithmetic operations, including those involving whole-number exponents, in the conventional order when there are no parentheses to specify a particular order (Order of Operations). For example, use the formulas V = s3 and A = 6 s2 to find the volume and surface area of a cube with sides of length s = 1/2.

Cluster:
Apply and extend previous understandings of arithmetic to algebraic expressions.

Standard:
Apply the properties of operations to generate equivalent expressions. For example, apply the distributive property to the expression 3 (2 + x) to produce the equivalent expression 6 + 3x; apply the distributive property to the expression 24x + 18y to produce the equivalent expression 6 (4x + 3y); apply properties of operations to y + y + y to produce the equivalent expression 3y.
