Cluster:
Understand the place value system.

Standard:
Explain patterns in the number of zeros of the product when multiplying a number by powers of 10, and explain patterns in the placement of the decimal point when a decimal is multiplied or divided by a power of 10. Use whole-number exponents to denote powers of 10.

Cluster:
Understand the place value system.

Standard:
Read, write, and compare decimals to thousandths. Read and write decimals to thousandths using base-ten numerals, number names, and expanded form, e.g., 347.392 = 3 × 100 + 4 × 10 + 7 × 1 + 3 × (1/10) + 9 × (1/100) + 2 × (1/1000).

Cluster:
Understand the place value system.

Standard:
Read, write, and compare decimals to thousandths. Compare two decimals to thousandths based on meanings of the digits in each place, using >, =, and < symbols to record the results of comparisons.

Cluster:
Understand the place value system.

Standard:
Use place value understanding to round decimals to any place.

Cluster:
Perform operations with multi-digit whole numbers and with decimals to hundredths.

Standard:
Fluently multiply multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm.

Cluster:
Perform operations with multi-digit whole numbers and with decimals to hundredths.

Standard:
Find whole-number quotients of whole numbers with up to four-digit dividends and two-digit divisors, using strategies based on place value, the properties of operations, and/or the relationship between multiplication and division. Illustrate and explain the calculation by using equations, rectangular arrays, and/or area models.

Cluster:
Perform operations with multi-digit whole numbers and with decimals to hundredths.

Standard:
Add, subtract, multiply, and divide decimals to hundredths, using concrete models or drawings and strategies based on place value, properties of operations, and/or the relationship between addition and subtraction; relate the strategy to a written method and explain the reasoning used.

Cluster:
Define, evaluate, and compare functions.

Standard:
Understand that a function is a rule that assigns to each input exactly one output. The graph of a function is the set of ordered pairs consisting of an input and the corresponding output.

Footnote:
Function notation is not required in grade 8.

Cluster:
Define, evaluate, and compare functions.

Standard:
Compare properties of two functions each represented in a different way (algebraically, graphically, numerically in tables, or by verbal descriptions). For example, given a linear function represented by a table of values and a linear function represented by an algebraic expression, determine which function has the greater rate of change.

Cluster:
Define, evaluate, and compare functions.

Standard:
Interpret the equation y = mx + b as defining a linear function, whose graph is a straight line; give examples of functions that are not linear. For example, the function A = s^2 giving the area of a square as a function of its side length is not linear because its graph contains the points (1,1), (2,4) and (3,9), which are not on a straight line.
