Grade 7

7.1.2 Compare and order rational and common irrational numbers and place them on a number line.
7.2.1 Solve addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division problems that use integers, fractions, decimals, and combinations of the four operations.
7.2.4 Use estimation to decide whether answers are reasonable in problems involving fractions and decimals.
7.5.1 Compare lengths, areas, volumes, weights, capacities, times, and temperatures within measurement systems.
7.5.2 Use experimentation and modeling to visualize similarity problems. Solve problems using similarity.
7.5.3 Read and create drawings made to scale, construct scale models, and solve problems related to scale.
7.5.4 Use formulas for finding the perimeter and area of basic two-dimensional shapes and the surface area and volume of basic three-dimensional shapes, including rectangles, parallelograms, trapezoids, triangles, circles, right prisms, and cylinders.
7.5.5 Estimate and compute the area of more complex or irregular two-dimensional shapes by dividing them into more basic shapes.
7.5.6 Use objects and geometry modeling tools to compute the surface area of the faces and the volume of a three-dimensional object built from rectangular solids.
7.6.1 Analyze, interpret, and display data in appropriate bar, line, and circle graphs and stem-and-leaf plots and justify the choice of display.
7.6.2 Make predictions from statistical data.
7.6.3 Describe how additional data, particularly outliers, added to a data set may affect the mean, median, and mode.
7.6.4 Analyze data displays, including ways that they can be misleading. Analyze ways in which the wording of questions can influence survey results.
7.6.5 Know that if P is the probability of an event occurring, then 1 - P is the probability of that event not occurring.
7.6.6 Understand that the probability of either one or the other of two disjoint events occurring is the sum of the two individual probabilities.
7.6.7 Find the number of possible arrangements of several objects using a tree diagram.
7.7.1 Analyze problems by identifying relationships, telling relevant from irrelevant information, identifying missing information, sequencing and prioritizing information, and observing patterns.
7.7.3 Decide when and how to divide a problem into simpler parts.
