7.NS.2 - About the Math, Learning Targets, and Rigor
Grade 5 GT The Number System
7.NS.2
Full Standard
7.NS.A.2 Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication and division of fractions to multiply and divide rational numbers.
2a. 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.
2b. 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 . Interpret quotients of rational numbers by describing real-world contexts.
2c. Apply properties of operations as strategies to multiply and divide rational numbers.
2d. 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.

Learning Targets (I can)
- Explain multiplication and division of integers and other rational numbers with representations.
- Connect representations of multiplication and division of integers to equations.
- Estimate the product or quotient of two integers or rational numbers.
- Convert a rational number to a decimal.
- Estimate the result of a converting a rational number to a decimal (e.g. 13/4 is a little more than 3 but less than 3.5).
- Explain why a decimal terminates or repeats.
- Solve real-world problems by multiplying and dividing integers and rational numbers.
About the Math
Students will add, subtract, multiply, and divide within the system of rational numbers. Because there are no specific standards for rational number arithmetic in later grades and because so much other work in Grade 5 GT depends on rational number arithmetic, fluency with rational number arithmetic should be the goal.

TASKS
These tasks can be used with small group or whole group instruction.
- One number is 4 times another. If the sum of their reciprocals is 5/12, find the two numbers. (answer: 3, 12)
- One number is 5 times another number. If the sum of their reciprocals is 6/35 , what are the two numbers? (answer: 7, 35)
- If the reciprocal of 5 times a number is subtracted from the reciprocal of that number, the result is 4/25. What is the number? (answer: 5)
SLIDE-BASED TASKS
These links are HCPSS created instructional tasks. These tasks are provided in Google slides. These tasks should be used for inspiration and resources, but instruction should start with students having the opportunity to engage with the math first (often involving physical and/or visual models) followed by discussion and explicit instruction to ensure student understanding.
