Students will describe, represent, or apply numbers or their relationships or will estimate or compute using mental strategies, paper/pencil or technology.
Topic
A. Knowledge of Number and Place Value
Indicator

Objectives
- Identify or describe numbers as prime or composite
Assessment limit: Use whole numbers (0 – 100)
- Identify and use rules of divisibility
Assessment limit: Use rules for 2, 3, 5, 9, or 10 and whole numbers (0 - 10,000)
- Identify the greatest common factor
Assessment limit: Use 2 numbers whose GCF is no more than 10 and whole numbers (0 – 100)
- Identify a common multiple and the least common multiple
Assessment limit: Use no more than 4 single digit whole numbers
Topic
C. Number Computation
Indicator
- 1. Analyze number relations and compute
Objectives
- Multiply whole numbers
Assessment limit: Use a 3-digit factor by another factor with no more than 2-digits and whole numbers (0 - 10,000)
- Divide whole numbers
Assessment limit: Use a dividend with no more than a 4-digits by a 2-digit divisor and whole numbers (0 - 9,999)
- Interpret quotients and remainders mathematically and in the context of a problem
Assessment limit: Use dividend with no more than a 3-digits by a 1 or 2 digit divisor and whole numbers (0 – 999)
- Add and subtract proper fractions and mixed numbers with answers in simplest form
Assessment limit: Use denominators as factors of 24 and numbers (0 – 20)
- Add decimals including money
Assessment limit: Use no more than 4 addends and no more than 3 decimal places in each addend and numbers (0 – 1000)
- Subtract decimals including money
Assessment limit: Use a minuend and subtrahend with no more than 3 decimal places and numbers (0 – 1000)
- Multiply decimals
Assessment limit: Use a decimal in monetary notation by a single digit whole number and numbers (0 – 100)
- Divide decimals by whole numbers
Indicator
- 2. Estimation
Objectives
- Determine the approximate sum and difference of decimals
Assessment limit: Use no more than 3 addends with no more than 3 decimal places in each addend or the difference of a minuend and subtrahend with no more than 3 decimal places and numbers (0 – 1000)
- Determine approximate product and quotient of whole numbers
Assessment limit: Use a 1-digit factor with the other factor having no more than 3 digits or a dividend having no more than 3 digits and a 1-digit divisor and whole numbers (0 – 5000)
- Determine the approximate product of decimals
Assessment limit: Use a decimal in monetary notation and a single digit whole number (0 – 100)
Note: Highlighted assessment limits will be tested in the no calculator section of MSA. In the assessment limit, (0-10) or (-10 to 10) means all numbers in the problem or the answer will fall within the range of 0 to 10 (including endpoints) or -10 to 10 (including endpoints), respectively. All content standards are tested in MSA but not all objectives. Objectives that have an assessment limit are tested on MSA. Objectives without an assessment limit are not tested on MSA.
