5th Grade

Alabama Course of Study Standards: 12.a, 12.b

Use a visual fraction model (area model, set model, or linear model) to show (a/b) × q and create a story context for this equation to interpret the product as a parts of a partition of q into b equal parts.

Interpret the product (a/b) × q as a parts of a partition of q into b equal parts; equivalently, as the result of a sequence of operations a × q ÷ b. For example, use a visual fraction model to show (2/3) × 4 = 8/3, and create a story context for this equation. Do the same with (2/3) × (4/5) = 8/15. (In general, (a/b) × (c/d) = ac/bd.)

Interpret the product (m/n) × q as m parts of a partition of q into n equal parts; equivalently, as the result of a sequence of operations, m × q ÷ n. For example, use a visual fraction model to show understanding, and create a story context for (m/n) × q.

Massachusetts Curriculum Frameworks: 5.NF.B.4.a

Interpret the product (a/b) × q as a parts of a partition of q into b equal parts; equivalently, as the result of a sequence of operations a × q ÷ b. For example, use a visual fraction model and/or area model to show (2/3) × 4 = 8/3, and create a story context for this equation. Do the same with (2/3) × (4/5) = 8/15. (In general, (a/b) × (c/d) = ac/bd.)

Ohio's Learning Standards: 5.NF.4.a

Interpret the product (a/b) × q as a parts of a partition of q into b equal parts, equivalently, as the result of a sequence of operations a × q ÷ b. For example, use a visual fraction model to show (2/3) × 4 = 8/3, and create a story context for this equation. Do the same with (2/3) × (4/5) = 8/15. (In general, (a/b) × (c/d) = ac/bd.)

Tennessee Academic Standards: 5.NF.B.4.a

Interpret the product a/b × q as a × (q ÷ b) (partition the quantity q into b equal parts and then multiply by a). Interpret the product a/b × q as (a × q) ÷ b (multiply a times the quantity q and then partition the product into b equal parts). For example, use a visual fraction model or write a story context to show that 2/3 × 6 can be interpreted as 2 × (6 ÷ 3) or (2 × 6) ÷ 3. Do the same with 2/3 × 4/5 = 8/15. (In general, a/b × c/d = ac/bd.)
