Description
Are you looking for a quick way to assess multiplying fractions? If so, this is your one stop shop!
This 8 question quick quiz assesses the following 5th grade math learning targets:
- I can multiply a whole number or a fraction by a fraction.
- I can prove my product is correct by using a visual model.
- I can find the area of a rectangle (with fractional side lengths).
Questions include a combination of conceptual and procedural problems.
Sample Problems:
1. Draw an area model to solve the area of a rectangle that has a width of 3
1/2 and a length of 4 2/5.
2. Next week, fifth graders hope to collect 1 ⅓ times as many bags of canned goods as the first week, 3 ½ . How many bags of canned goods do they hope to collect?
3. 5 x 2 3/4
There is also an error analysis page for students to re-work problems correctly and provide explanations of their errors.
Document is completely editable to meet your needs.
Answer Key is included!
Download includes a Word document with the Google link. Google Drive and Google Classroom ready!
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.5.NF.B.3
Interpret a fraction as division of the numerator by the denominator (a/b = a ÷ b). Solve word problems involving division of whole numbers leading to answers in the form of fractions or mixed numbers, e.g., by using visual fraction models or equations to represent the problem. For example, interpret 3/4 as the result of dividing 3 by 4, noting that 3/4 multiplied by 4 equals 3, and that when 3 wholes are shared equally among 4 people each person has a share of size 3/4. If 9 people want to share a 50-pound sack of rice equally by weight, how many pounds of rice should each person get? Between what two whole numbers does your answer lie?
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.5.NF.B.4
Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication to multiply a fraction or whole number by a fraction.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.5.NF.B.4.A
Interpret the product (a/b) × q as a parts of a partition of q into b equal parts; equivalently, as the result of a sequence of operations a × q ÷ b. For example, use a visual fraction model to show (2/3) × 4 = 8/3, and create a story context for this equation. Do the same with (2/3) × (4/5) = 8/15. (In general, (a/b) × (c/d) = (ac)/(bd).
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.5.NF.B.4.B
Find the area of a rectangle with fractional side lengths by tiling it with unit squares of the appropriate unit fraction side lengths, and show that the area is the same as would be found by multiplying the side lengths. Multiply fractional side lengths to find areas of rectangles, and represent fraction products as rectangular areas.
