Mathematics | Grade : 7

Domain - The Number System

Cluster - Apply and extend previous understandings of operations with fractions to add, subtract, multiply, and divide rational numbers.

[7.NS.A.3] - Solve real-world and mathematical problems involving the four operations with integers and other rational numbers.


Resources:


  • Integer
    All positive and negative whole numbers, including zero.
  • Rational number
    A number expressible in the form ab or – ab for some fraction ab. The rational numbers include the integers.

Predecessor Standards:

  • 4.OA.A.3
    Solve multistep word problems posed with whole numbers and having whole-number answers using the four operations, including problems in which remainders must be interpreted. Represent these problems using equations with a letter standing for the unknown quantity. Assess the reasonableness of answers using mental computation and estimation strategies including rounding.
  • 6.NS.B.3
    Fluently add, subtract, multiply, and divide multi-digit decimals using the standard algorithm for each operation.

Successor Standards:

  • 8.EE.A.2
    Use square root and cube root symbols to represent solutions to equations of the form x2 = p and x3 = p, where p is a positive rational number. Evaluate square roots of small perfect squares and cube roots of small perfect cubes. Know that √2 is irrational.

Same Level Standards:

  • 7.NS.A.1.d
    Apply properties of operations as strategies to add and subtract rational numbers.
  • 7.NS.A.2.c
    Apply properties of operations as strategies to multiply and divide rational numbers.
  • 7.NS.A.2.d
    Convert a rational number to a decimal using long division; know that the decimal form of a rational number terminates in 0s or eventually repeats.
  • 7.EE.B.3
    Solve multi-step real-life and mathematical problems posed with positive and negative rational numbers in any form (whole numbers, fractions, and decimals), using tools strategically. Apply properties of operations to calculate with numbers in any form; convert between forms as appropriate; and assess the reasonableness of answers using mental computation and estimation strategies. For example: If a woman making $25 an hour gets a 10% raise, she will make an additional 1/10 of her salary an hour, or $2.50, for a new salary of $27.50. If you want to place a towel bar 9 3/4 inches long in the center of a door that is 27 1/2 inches wide, you will need to place the bar about 9 inches from each edge; this estimate can be used as a check on the exact computation.
  • 7.EE.B.4.a
    Solve word problems leading to equations of the form px + q = r and p(x + q) = r, where p, q, and r are specific rational numbers. Solve equations of these forms fluently. Compare an algebraic solution to an arithmetic solution, identifying the sequence of the operations used in each approach. For example, the perimeter of a rectangle is 54 cm. Its length is 6 cm. What is its width?
