Mathematics | Grade : 5
Domain - Number and Operations—Fractions
Cluster - Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication and division to multiply and divide fractions.
[5.NF.B.6] - Solve real-world problems involving multiplication of fractions and mixed numbers, e.g., by using visual fraction models or equations to represent the problem.
[5.NF.B.4] -
Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication to multiply a fraction or whole number by a fraction.
[5.NF.B.5] -
Interpret multiplication as scaling (resizing), by:
[5.NF.B.7] -
Apply and extend previous understandings of division to divide unit fractions by whole numbers and whole numbers by unit fractions. [Note: 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.]
[5.MD.B.2] -
Make a line plot (dot plot) to display a data set of measurements in fractions of a unit. Use operations on fractions for this grade to solve problems involving information presented in line plot (dot plot).
For example, given different measurements of liquid in identical beakers, find the amount of liquid each beaker would contain if the total amount in all the beakers were redistributed equally.
