Minnesota Grade 7 Math Standards

The official Minnesota Grade 7 math standards, grouped by domain with the exact code and description for each expectation.

7.1

  • 7.1Number & Operation
  • 7.1.1Read, write, represent and compare positive and negative rational numbers, expressed as integers, fractions and decimals
  • 7.1.1.1Know that every rational number can be written as the ratio of two integers or as a terminating or repeating decimal. Recognize that pi is not rational, but that it can be approximated by rational numbers such as 22/7 and 3.14
  • 7.1.1.2Understand that division of two integers will always result in a rational number. Use this information to interpret the decimal result of a division problem when using a calculator
  • 7.1.1.3Locate positive and negative rational numbers on the number line, understand the concept of opposites, and plot pairs of positive and negative rational numbers on a coordinate grid
  • 7.1.1.4Compare positive and negative rational numbers expressed in various forms using the symbols <, >, =, "less than or equal to," "greater than or equal to."
  • 7.1.1.5Recognize and generate equivalent representations of positive and negative rational numbers, including equivalent fractions
  • 7.1.2Calculate with positive and negative rational numbers, and rational numbers with whole number exponents, to solve real-world and mathematical problems
  • 7.1.2.1Add, subtract, multiply and divide positive and negative rational numbers that are integers, fractions and terminating decimals; use efficient and generalizable procedures, including standard algorithms; raise positive rational numbers to whole-number exponents
  • 7.1.2.2Use real-world contexts and the inverse relationship between addition and subtraction to explain why the procedures of arithmetic with negative rational numbers make sense
  • 7.1.2.3Understand that calculators and other computing technologies often truncate or round numbers
  • 7.1.2.4Solve problems in various contexts involving calculations with positive and negative rational numbers and positive integer exponents, including computing simple and compound interest
  • 7.1.2.5Use proportional reasoning to solve problems involving ratios in various contexts
  • 7.1.2.6Demonstrate an understanding of the relationship between the absolute value of a rational number and distance on a number line. Use the symbol for absolute value

7.2

  • 7.2Algebra
  • 7.2.1Understand the concept of proportionality in real-world and mathematical situations, and distinguish between proportional and other relationships
  • 7.2.1.1Understand that a relationship between two variables,xandy, is proportional if it can be expressed in the formy/x=kory=kx. Distinguish proportional relationships from other relationships, including inversely proportional relationships (xy=kory=k/x)
  • 7.2.1.2Understand that the graph of a proportional relationship is a line through the origin whose slope is the unit rate (constant of proportionality). Know how to use graphing technology to examine what happens to a line when the unit rate is changed
