The following released test questions are taken from the Grade 6 Mathematics Standards Test. This test is
one of the California Standards Tests administered as part of the Standardized Testing and Reporting (STAR)
Program under policies set by the State Board of Education.
All questions on the California Standards Tests are evaluated by committees of content experts, including
teachers and administrators, to ensure their appropriateness for measuring the California academic content
standards in Grade 6 Mathematics. In addition to content, all items are reviewed and approved to ensure
their adherence to the principles of fairness and to ensure no bias exists with respect to characteristics such
as gender, ethnicity, and language.
This document contains released test questions from the California Standards Test forms in 2003, 2004, 2005,
2006, 2007, and 2008. First on the pages that follow are lists of the standards assessed on the Grade 6
Mathematics Test. Next are released test questions. Following the questions is a table that gives the correct
answer for each question, the content standard that each question is measuring, and the year each question last
appeared on the test.
The following table lists each strand/reporting cluster, the number of items that appear on the exam, and the
number of released test questions that appear in this document.

In selecting test questions for release, three criteria are used: (1) the questions adequately cover a selection of
the academic content standards assessed on the Grade 6 Mathematics Test; (2) the questions demonstrate a
range of difficulty; and (3) the questions present a variety of ways standards can be assessed. These released
test questions do not reflect all of the ways the standards may be assessed. Released test questions will not
appear on future tests.

Compare and order positive and negative fractions, decimals, and mixed
numbers and place them on a number line.

Interpret and use ratios in different contexts (e.g., batting averages, miles per
hour) to show the relative sizes of two quantities, using appropriate notations
(a/b, a to b, a:b).
6NS1.3*
Use proportions to solve problems (e.g., determine the value of N if 4/7 = N/21,
find the length of a side of a polygon similar to a known polygon). Use crossmultiplication as a method for solving such problems, understanding it as the
multiplication of both sides of an equation by a multiplicative inverse.

The following four California content standards are included in the Operations and Problem Solving
with Fractions reporting cluster of the Number Sense strand and are represented in this booklet by
15 test questions. These questions represent only some ways in which these standards may be
assessed on the Grade 6 California Mathematics Standards Test.
