Real Numbers

Identifying and evaluating situations in which opposite quantities combine to make zero. Expressing rational numbers in the standard form. Identifying equivalent rational numbers of given numbers. Understanding and determining the absolute value of numbers. Solving real-world problems that involve understanding the absolute value of a number. Applying the commutative, associative, and distributive properties. Understanding the impact of the negative sign in multiplication of rational numbers and applying the same to real-world mathematical problems.

Mapped to CCSS Section# 6.EE.A.2b, 7.NS.A.1a, 7.NS.A.1b, 7.NS.A.1d, 7.NS.A.2a, 7.NS.A.2b, 7.NS.A.2c, 7.NS.A.2d, 7.NS.A.3

Describe situations in which opposite quantities combine to make 0. For example, a hydrogen atom has 0 charge because its two constituents are oppositely charged. Understand p + q as the number located a distance |q| from p, in the positive or negative direction depending on whether q is positive or negative. Show that a number and its opposite have a sum of 0 (are additive inverses). Interpret sums of rational numbers by describing real-world contexts. Apply properties of operations as strategies to add and subtract rational numbers. Understand that multiplication is extended from fractions to rational numbers by requiring that operations continue to satisfy the properties of operations, particularly the distributive property, leading to products such as (-1)(-1) = 1 and the rules for multiplying signed numbers. Interpret products of rational numbers by describing real-world contexts. Understand that integers can be divided, provided that the divisor is not zero, and every quotient of integers (with non-zero divisor) is a rational number. If p and q are integers, then -(p/q) = (-p)/q = p/(-q). Interpret quotients of rational numbers by describing real-world contexts. Apply properties of operations as strategies to multiply and divide rational numbers. 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. Solve real-world and mathematical problems involving the four operations with rational numbers. Identify parts of an expression using mathematical terms (sum, term, product, factor, quotient, coefficient); view one or more parts of an expression as a single entity. For example, describe the expression 2 (8 + 7) as a product of two factors; view (8 + 7) as both a single entity and a sum of two terms.
