Numbers and Operations

M(N&O) 6-1 Demonstrates conceptual understanding of rational numbers with respect to ratios (comparison of two whole numbers by division a/b, a : b, and a ÷ b , where b ? 0); and rates (e.g., a out of b, 25%) using models, explanations, or other representations.

M(N&O) 6-2 Demonstrates understanding of the relative magnitude of numbers by ordering or comparing numbers with whole number bases and whole number exponents, integers, or rational numbers within and across number formats (fractions, decimals, or whole number percents from 1- 100) using number lines or equality and inequality symbols.

M(N&O) 6-3 Demonstrates conceptual understanding of mathematical operations by describing or illustrating the meaning of a power by representing the relationship between the base (whole number) and the exponent (whole number); and the effect on the magnitude of a whole number when multiplying or dividing it by a whole number, decimal, or fraction.

M(N&O) 6-4 Accurately solves problems involving single or multiple operations on fractions (proper, improper, and mixed), or decimals; and addition or subtraction of integers; percent of a whole; or problems involving greatest common factor or least common multiple.
