Standard Identifier: 5.NF.5.b

Grade: 5
Domain: Number and Operations—Fractions

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

Standard:
Interpret multiplication as scaling (resizing), by: Explaining why multiplying a given number by a fraction greater than 1 results in a product greater than the given number (recognizing multiplication by whole numbers greater than 1 as a familiar case); explaining why multiplying a given number by a fraction less than 1 results in a product smaller than the given number; and relating the principle of fraction equivalence a/b = (n × a)/(n × b) to the effect of multiplying a/b by 1.

Standard Identifier: 5.NF.6

Grade: 5
Domain: Number and Operations—Fractions

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

Standard:
Solve real-world problems involving multiplication of fractions and mixed numbers, e.g., by using visual fraction models or equations to represent the problem.

Standard Identifier: 5.NF.7.a

Grade: 5
Domain: Number and Operations—Fractions

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. Interpret division of a unit fraction by a non-zero whole number, and compute such quotients. For example, create a story context for (1/3) ÷ 4, and use a visual fraction model to show the quotient. Use the relationship between multiplication and division to explain that (1/3) ÷ 4 = 1/12 because (1/12) × 4 = 1/3.

Footnote:
Students able to multiply fractions in general can develop strategies to divide fractions in general, by reasoning about the relationship between multiplication and division. But division of a fraction by a fraction is not a requirement at this grade.

Standard Identifier: 5.NF.7.b

Grade: 5
Domain: Number and Operations—Fractions

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. Interpret division of a whole number by a unit fraction, and compute such quotients. For example, create a story context for 4 ÷ (1/5), and use a visual fraction model to show the quotient. Use the relationship between multiplication and division to explain that 4 ÷ (1/5) = 20 because 20 × (1/5) = 4.

Standard Identifier: 5.NF.7.c

Grade: 5
Domain: Number and Operations—Fractions

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?

Standard Identifier: N-RN.1

Grade Range: 7–12
Domain: The Real Number System
Discipline: Algebra I
Conceptual Category: Number and Quantity

Cluster:
Extend the properties of exponents to rational exponents.

Standard:
Explain how the definition of the meaning of rational exponents follows from extending the properties of integer exponents to those values, allowing for a notation for radicals in terms of rational exponents. For example, we define 5^1/3 to be the cube root of 5 because we want (5^1/3)^3 = 5(^1/3)^3 to hold, so (5^1/3)^3 must equal 5.

Standard Identifier: N-RN.2

Grade Range: 7–12
Domain: The Real Number System
Discipline: Algebra I
Conceptual Category: Number and Quantity

Cluster:
Extend the properties of exponents to rational exponents.

Standard:
Rewrite expressions involving radicals and rational exponents using the properties of exponents.

Standard Identifier: N-RN.3

Grade Range: 7–12
Domain: The Real Number System
Discipline: Algebra I
Conceptual Category: Number and Quantity

Cluster:
Use properties of rational and irrational numbers.

Standard:
Explain why the sum or product of two rational numbers is rational; that the sum of a rational number and an irrational number is irrational; and that the product of a nonzero rational number and an irrational number is irrational.

Standard Identifier: G-GMD.1

Grade Range: 8–12
Domain: Geometric Measurement and Dimension
Discipline: Geometry

Cluster:
Explain volume formulas and use them to solve problems.

Standard:
Give an informal argument for the formulas for the circumference of a circle, area of a circle, volume of a cylinder, pyramid, and cone. Use dissection arguments, Cavalieri’s principle, and informal limit arguments.

Discipline: Math II
Conceptual Category: Geometry

Cluster:
