    6.1.1. Read, write, represent and compare positive rational numbers expressed as fractions, decimals, percents and ratios; write positive integers as products of factors; use these representations in real-world and mathematical situations.6.1.1.1. Locate positive rational numbers on a number line and plot pairs of positive rational numbers on a coordinate grid.6.1.1.2. Compare positive rational numbers represented in various forms. Use the symbols < , = and >.

    6.1.1.2.1. For example: 12

    > 0.36.

    6.1.1.3. Understand that percent represents parts out of 100 and ratios to 100.6.1.1.3.1. For example: 75% corresponds to the ratio 75 to 100, which is equivalent to the ratio 3 to 4.

    6.1.1.4. Determine equivalences among fractions, decimals and percents; select among these representations to solve problems.6.1.1.4.1. For example: If a woman making $25 an hour gets a 10% raise, she will make an additional $2.50 an hour, because $2.50 is 1

    10or 10% of $25.

    6.1.1.5. Factor whole numbers; express a whole number as a product of prime factors with exponents.6.1.1.5.1. For example: 324 2 3

    6.1.1.6. Determine greatest common factors and least common multiples. Use common factors and common multiples to calculate with fractions and find equivalent f ractions.6.1.1.6.1. For example: Factor the numerator and denominator of a fraction to determine an equivalent fraction.

    6.1.2. Understand the concept of ratio and its relationship to fractions and to the multiplication and division of whole numbers. Use ratios to solve real- world and mathematical problems.6.1.2.1. Identify and use ratios to compare quantities; understand that comparing quantities using ratios is not the same as comparing quantities using subtraction.

    6.1.2.1.1. For example: In a classroom with 15 boys and 10 girls, compare the numbers by subtracting (there are 5 more boys than girls) or by dividing (there a re 1.5 times as many boys as girls). The comparison using division may be expressed as a ratio of boys to girls (3 to 2 or 36.1.2.2. Apply the relationship between ratios, equivalent fractions and percents to solve problems in various contexts, including those involving mixtures and concentrations.

    6.1.2.2.1. For example: If 5 cups of trail mix contains 2 cups of raisins, the ratio of raisins to trail mix is 2 to 5. This ratio corresponds to t he fact that the raisins are 25

    of the total, or 40% of t he total. And if one trail mix consists of 2 parts peanuts to 3 parts raisins, and another consi

    peanuts to 8 parts raisins, then the first mixture has a higher concentration of peanuts.6.1.2.3. Determine the rate for ratios of quantities with different units.

    6.1.2.3.1. For example: 60 miles for every 3 hours is equivalent to 20 miles for every one hour (20 mph).6.1.2.4. Use reasoning about multiplication and division to solve ratio and rate problems.

    6.1.2.4.1. For example: If 5 items cost $3.75, and all items are the same price, then 1 item costs 75 cents, so 12 items cost $9 .00.6.1.3.

    3 5 6means 5 4 2

    6 5 3.

    6.1.3.5.1. For example: The sum 13

    0.25 can be estimated to be between 12

    and 1, and this estimate can be used to check the result of a more detailed calculation.

    6.2.1.1. Understand that a variable can be used to represent a quantity that can change, often in relationship to another changing quantity. Use variables in various contexts.6.2.1.1.1. For example: If a student earns $7 an hour in a job, the amount of money earned can be represented by a variable and is related to the number of hours worked, which also can be represented by a variable.

    6.2.1.2. Represent the relationship between two varying quantities with function rules, graphs and tables; translate between any two of these r epresentations.6.2.1.2.1. For example: Describe the terms in the sequence of perfect squares t= 1, 4, 9, 16, .. . by using the rule 2t n for n = 1, 2, 3, 4, ...

    6.2.2. Use properties of arithmetic to generate equivalent numerical expressions and evaluate e xpressions involving positive rational numbers.6.2.2.1. Apply the associative, commutative and distributive properties and order of operations to generate equivalent expressions and to solve problems involving positive rational numbers.

    6.2.2.1.1. For example: 32 5 2 16 532 5 16 5 16215 6 15 6 3 5 3 2 9 2 5 9

    .

    6.2.2.1.2. Another example: Use the distributive law to write: 9 15 9 15 3 5 5 31 1 1 1 1 1 2 12 3 2 8 2 3 2 3 8 2 2 8 8 8

    .

Represent real-world or mathematical situations using equations and inequalities involving variables and positive rational numbers.

    6.2.3.1.1. For example: The number of miles m in a kkilometer race is represented by the equation m = 0.62 k.6.2.3.2. Solve equations involving positive rational numbers using number sense, properties of arithmetic and the idea of maintaining equality on both sides of the equation. Interpret a solution in the original context and assess the reasonableness of results.

    6.2.3.2.1. For example: A cellular phone company charges $0.12 per minute. If the bill was $11.40 in April, how many minutes were used?6.3. Geometry & Measurement
