Introduction - Grade 6 Mathematics

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,
and 2006. 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.

Statistics, Data Analysis, and Probability 11 10
TOTAL 65 64

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.

Number Sense
1.1 Compare and order positive and negative fractions, decimals, and
3
mixed numbers and place them on a number line.
1.2 Interpret and use ratios in different contexts (e.g., batting averages,
1 miles per hour) to show the relative sizes of two quantities, using
appropriate notations (a/b, a to b, a:b).
1.3 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
6 polygon). Use cross-multiplication as a method for solving such problems,
understanding it as the multiplication of both sides of an equation by a
multiplicative inverse.
1.4 Calculate given percentages of quantities & solve problems
5
involving discounts at sales, interest earned, & tips
2.1 Solve problems involving addition, subtraction, multiplication, and
1/2* division of positive fractions and explain why a particular operation was
used for a given situation.
2.2 Explain the meaning of multiplication and division of positive fractions
1/2*
and perform the calculations.
2.3 Solve addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division problems,
6 including those arising in concrete situations that use positive and negative
integers and combinations of these operations.
2.4 Determine the least common multiple and the greatest common
divisor of whole numbers; use them to solve problems with fractions (to
3
find a common denominator to add two fractions or to find the reduced
form for a fraction)
Algebra and Functions
6 1.1 Write and solve one-step linear equations in one variable.
1.2 Write and evaluate an algebraic expression for a given situation, using
1
up to three variables.
1.3 Apply algebraic order of operations and the commutative, associative,
1 and distributive properties to evaluate expressions; and justify each step in
the process.
1.4 Solve problems manually by using the correct order of operations or by
1
using a scientific calculator.
2.1 Convert one unit of measurement to another (e.g., from feet to miles,
1
from centimeters to inches).
2.2 Demonstrate an understanding that rate is a measure of one quantity
6
per unit value of another quantity.
1 2.3 Solve problems involving rates, average speed, distance, and time.
3.1 Use variables in expressions describing geometric quantities (e.g., P =
1 2w + 2l, A = 1/2bh, C = πd – the formulas for the perimeter of a rectangle,
the area of a triangle, and the circumference of a circle, respectively).
1 3.2 Express in symbolic form simple relationships arising from geometry.

Measurement and Geometry


1.1 Understand the concept of a constant such as π; know the formulas for the
3
circumference and area of a circle.
1.2 Know common estimates of π (3.14; 22/7) and use these values to estimate and
1/2* calculate the circumference and the area of circles; compare with actual
measurements.
1.3 Know and use the formulas for the volume of triangular prisms and cylinders
1/2* (area of base x height); compare these formulas and explain the similarity between
them and the formula for the volume of a rectangular solid.
2.1 Identify angles as vertical, adjacent, complementary, or supplementary and
1
provide descriptions of these terms.
2.2 Use the properties of complementary and supplementary angles and the
4
sum of the angles of a triangle to solve problems involving an unknown angle.
2.3 Draw quadrilaterals and triangles from given information about them (e.g., a
1
quadrilateral having equal sides but no right angles, a right isosceles triangle).
Statistics, Data Analysis, and Probability
1/3* 1.1 Compute the range, mean, median, and mode of data sets.
1.2 Understand how additional data added to data sets may affect these
1/3*
computations of measures of central tendency.
1.3 Understand how the inclusion or exclusion of outliers affects measures of
1/3*
central tendency.
1.4 Know why a specific measure of central tendency (mean, median, mode)
0
provides the most useful information in a given context.
2.1 Compare different samples of a population with the data from the entire
0
population and identify a situation in which it makes sense to use a sample.
2.2 Identify different ways of selecting a sample (e.g., convenience sampling,
3 responses to a survey, random sampling) and which method makes a sample more
representative for a population.
2.3 Analyze data displays and explain why the way in which the question was
0 asked might have influenced the results obtained and why the way in which the
results were displayed might have influenced the conclusions reached.
2.4 Identify data that represent sampling errors and explain why the sample
0
(and the display) might be biased.
2.5 Identify claims based on statistical data and, in simple cases, evaluate the
1/3*
validity of the claims.
3.1 Represent all possible outcomes for compound events in an organized way
3 (e.g., tables, grids, tree diagrams) and express the theoretical probability of each
outcome.
3.2 Use data to estimate the probability of future events (e.g., batting averages or
0
number of accidents per mile driven).
3.3 Represent probabilities as ratios, proportions, decimals between 0 and 1,
and percentages between 0 and 100 and verify that the probabilities computed are
3
reasonable; know that if P is the probability of an event, 1- P is the probability of
an event not occurring.
3.4 Understand that the probability of either of two disjoint events occurring is the
1/3* sum of the two individual probabilities & that the probability of one event
following another, in independent trials, is the product of the two probabilities.
1/3* 3.5 Understand the difference between independent and dependent events.
* Fractional values indicate rotated standards (e.g, 1/2 = rotated every two years; 1/3 = rotated every three years); Key standards comprise a minimum of 70% of test

Introduction - Grade 7 Mathematics

The following released test questions are taken from the Grade 7 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 7 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,
and 2006. First on the pages that follow are lists of the standards assessed on the Grade 7 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.

NUMBER OF NUMBER OF
STRAND/REPORTING QUESTIONS ON RELEASED TEST
CLUSTER EXAM QUESTIONS
Number Sense – Rational Numbers 14 14
Number Sense – Exponents, Powers, and Roots 8 9
Algebra and Functions – Quantitative Relationships
and Evaluating Expressions 10 11
Algebra and Functions – Multi-step Problems,
Graphing, and Functions 15 14
Measurement and Geometry 13 12
Statistics, Data Analysis, and Probability 5 4
TOTAL 65 64

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 7 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.

Number Sense
1.1 Read, write and compare rational numbers in scientific notation (positive and negative
1
powers of 10), compare rational numbers in general.
1.2 Add, subtract, multiply, and divide rational numbers (integers, fractions, and
4
terminating decimals) and take positive rational numbers to whole-number powers.
1.3 Convert fractions to decimals and use these representations in estimations,
1
computations, and applications.
1 1.4 Differentiate between rational and irrational numbers.
1.5 Know that every rational number is either a terminating or a repeating decimal and
1
be able to convert terminating decimals into reduced fractions.
1 1.6 Calculate the percentage of increases and decreases of a quantity.
1.7 Solve problems that involve discounts, markups, commissions, and profit and
5
compute simple and compound interest.
2.1 Understand negative whole-number exponents. Multiply and divide expressions
1
involving exponents with a common base.
1 2.2 Add and subtract fractions by using factoring to find common denominators.
3 2.3 Multiply, divide, and simplify rational numbers by using exponent rules.
2.4 Use the inverse relationship between raising to a power and extracting the root of a
1 perfect square integer; for an integer that is not square, determine without a calculator the
two integers between which its square root lies and explain why.
2.5 Understand the meaning of the absolute value of a number; interpret the absolute
2 value as the distance of the number from zero on a number line; and determine the absolute
value of real numbers.
Algebra and Functions
1.1 Use variables and appropriate operations to write an expression, an equation, an
1 inequality, or a system of equations or inequalities that represents a verbal description
(e.g., three less than a number, half a large as area A).
1 1.2 Use the correct order of operations to evaluate algebraic expressions such as 3(2x + 5)2.
1.3 Simplify numerical expressions by applying properties of rational numbers ( e.g.,
5
identify, inverse, distributive, associative, commutative) and justify the process used.
1.4 Use algebraic terminology (e.g., variable, equation, term, coefficient, inequality,
1/3*
expression, constant) correctly.
1.5 Represent quantitative relationships graphically and interpret the meaning of a specific
2/3*
part of a graph in the situation represented by the graph.
2.1 Interpret positive whole-number powers as repeated multiplication and negative whole-
1 number powers as repeated division or multiplication by the multiplicative inverse.
Simplify and evaluate expressions that include exponents.
2.2 Multiply and divide monomials; extend the process of taking powers and extracting
1
roots to monomials when the latter results in a monomial with an integer exponent.
2/3* 3.1 Graph functions of the form y = nx2 and y = nx3 and use in solving problems.
3.2 Plot the values from the volumes of three-dimensional shapes for various values of the
1/3* edge lengths (e.g., cubes with varying edge lengths or a triangle prism with a fixed height
and an equilateral triangle base of varying lengths).
3.3 Graph linear functions, noting that the vertical change (change in y-value) per unit
2 of horizontal change (change in x-value) is always the same and know that the ratio (“rise
over run”) is called the slope of a graph.
3.4 Plot the values of quantities whose ratios are always the same (e.g., cost to the
2 number of an item, feet to inches, circumference to diameter of a circle). Fit a line to the
plot and understand that the slope of the line equals the ratio of the quantities.
4.1 Solve two-step linear equations and inequalities in one variable over the rational
5 numbers, interpret the solution or solutions in the context from which they arose, and
verify the reasonableness of the results.
4.2 Solve multistep problems involving rate, average speed, distance, and time or a
5
direct variation.

Measurement and Geometry
1.1 Compare weights capacities, geometric measures, times and temperatures within and
2/3* between measurement systems (e.g., miles per hour and feet per second, cubic inches to
cubic centimeters).
1/3* 1.2 Construct and read drawings and models made to scale.
1.3 Use measures expressed as rates (e.g., speed, density) and measures expressed as
3 products (e.g., person-days) to solve problems; check the units of the solutions; and use
dimensional analysis to check the reasonableness of the answer.
2.1 Use formulas routinely for finding the perimeter and area of basic two-dimensional
figures and the surface area and volume of basic three-dimensional figures and the surface
1/3* area and volume of basic three-dimensional figures, including rectangles, parallelograms,
trapezoids, squares, triangles, circles, prisms, and cylinders.
2.2 Estimate and compute the area of more complex or irregular two- and three-
1/3* dimensional figures by breaking the figures down into more basic geometric objects.
2.3 Compute the length of the perimeter, the surface area of the faces, and the volume of a
three-dimensional object built from rectangular solids. Understand that when the lengths
1/3* of all dimensions are multiplied by a scale factor, the surface area is multiplied by the
square of the scale factor and the volume is multiplied by the cube of the scale factor.
2.4 Relate the changes in measurement with a change of scale to the units used (e.g.,
square inches, cubic feet) and to conversions between units (1 square foot = 144 square
1/3* inches or [1 ft.2] = [144 in.2]; 1 cubic inch is approximately 16.38 cubic centimeters or [1
in.3] = [16.38 cm3]).
3.1 Identify and construct basic elements of geometric figures (e.g., altitudes, midpoints,
1/3* diagonals, angle bisectors, and perpendicular bisectors; central angles, radii, diameters, and
chords of circles) by using a compass and straightedge.
3.2 Understand and use coordinate graphs to plot simple figures, determine lengths and
1/3* areas related to them, and determine their image under translations and reflections.
3.3 Know and understand the Pythagorean theorem and its converse and use it to find
4 the length of the missing side of a right triangle and the lengths of other line segments and,
in some situations, empirically verify the Pythagorean theorem by direct measurement.
3.4 Demonstrate an understanding of conditions that indicate two geometrical figures
2 are congruent and what congruence means about the relationships between the sides and
angles of the two figures.
3.5 Construct two-dimensional patterns for three-dimensional models, such as cylinders,
0 prisms, and cones.
3.6 Identify elements of three-dimensional geometric objects (e.g., diagonals of
1 rectangular solids) and describe how two or more objects are related in space (e.g., skew
lines, the possible ways three planes might intersect).
Statistics, Data Analysis, and Probability
1.1 Know various forms of display for data sets, including a stem-and-leaf plot or box-and-
1 whisker plot; use the forms to display a single set of data or to compare two sets of data.
1.2 Represent two numerical variables on a scatterplot and informally describe how the
1 data points are distributed and any apparent relationship that exists between the two
variables (e.g., between time spent on homework and grade level).
1.3 Understand the meaning of, and be able to compute, the minimum, the lower
3 quartile, the median, the upper quartile, and the maximum of a data set.

* Fractional values indicate rotated standards (e.g, 1/2 = rotated every two years; 1/3 = rotated every three years)
Key standards comprise a minimum of 70% of the test.
