Grade 6 - The Number System

Standard 6.NS.1.8 - Solve multiplication equations with decimals and numbers up to 1000.

Included Skills:

Students will be expected to demonstrate an understanding of multiplication and division of decimals (one-digit whole number multipliers and one-digit natural number divisors).
• Performance Indicators
- N08.01 Model the multiplication and division of decimals using concrete and visual representations.
- N08.02 Predict products and quotients of decimals using estimation strategies.
- N08.03 Place the decimal point in a product using front-end estimation (e.g., For 15.205 × 4, think 15 × 4, so the product is greater than 60.).
- N08.04 Place the decimal point in a quotient using front-end estimation (e.g., For $25.83 ÷ 4, think $24 ÷ 4, so the quotient is greater than $6.).
- N08.05 Use estimation to correct errors of decimal point placement in a given product or quotient without using paper and pencil.
- N08.06 Create and solve story problems that involve multiplication and division of decimals using multipliers from 0 to 9 and divisors from 1 to 9.
- N08.07 Solve a given problem, using a personal strategy, and record the process symbolically.
