Grade 6: The Number System

6.NS.1

Fully covered
Compute and represent quotients of positive fractions using a variety of procedures (e.g., visual models, equations, and real-world situations).

6.NS.2

Fully covered
Fluently divide multi-digit whole numbers using a standard algorithmic approach.

6.NS.3

Fully covered
Fluently add, subtract, multiply and divide multi-digit decimal numbers using a standard algorithmic approach.

6.NS.4

Find common factors and multiples using two whole numbers.

6.NS.4a

Fully covered
Compute the greatest common factor (GCF) of two numbers both less than or equal to 100.

6.NS.4b

Fully covered
Compute the least common multiple (LCM) of two numbers both less than or equal to 12.

6.NS.4c

Mostly covered
Express sums of two whole numbers, each less than or equal to 100, using the distributive property to factor out a common factor of the original addends.

6.NS.5

Fully covered
Understand that the positive and negative representations of a number are opposites in direction and value. Use integers to represent quantities in real-world situations and explain the meaning of zero in each situation.

6.NS.6

Extend the understanding of the number line to include all rational numbers and apply this concept to the coordinate plane.

6.NS.6a

Mostly covered
Understand the concept of opposite numbers, including zero, and their relative locations on the number line.

6.NS.6b

Fully covered
Understand that the signs of the coordinates in ordered pairs indicate their location on an axis or in a quadrant on the coordinate plane.

6.NS.6c

Not covered
Recognize when ordered pairs are reflections of each other on the coordinate plane across one axis, both axes, or the origin.
(Content unavailable)

6.NS.6d

Fully covered
Plot rational numbers on number lines and ordered pairs on coordinate planes.

6.NS.7

Understand and apply the concepts of comparing, ordering, and finding absolute value to rational numbers.

6.NS.7a

Mostly covered
Interpret statements using equal to (=) and not equal to (≠).

6.NS.7b

Mostly covered
Interpret statements using less than (<), greater than (>), and equal to (=) as relative locations on the number line.

6.NS.7c

Not covered
Use concepts of equality and inequality to write and to explain real-world and mathematical situations.
(Content unavailable)

6.NS.7d

Fully covered
Understand that absolute value represents a number’s distance from zero on the number line and use the absolute value of a rational number to represent real-world situations.

6.NS.7e

Fully covered
Recognize the difference between comparing absolute values and ordering rational numbers. For negative rational numbers, understand that as the absolute value increases, the value of the negative number decreases.

6.NS.8

Extend knowledge of the coordinate plane to solve real-world and mathematical problems involving rational numbers.

6.NS.8a

Fully covered
Plot points in all four quadrants to represent the problem.

6.NS.8b

Not covered
Find the distance between two points when ordered pairs have the same x-coordinates or same y-coordinates.
(Content unavailable)

6.NS.8c

Not covered
Relate finding the distance between two points in a coordinate plane to absolute value using a number line.
(Content unavailable)

6.NS.9

Partially covered
Investigate and translate among multiple representations of rational numbers (fractions, decimal numbers, and percentages). Fractions should be limited to those with denominators of 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 10, and 100.
