How the ATLAS reports it

Arkansas’s statewide assessment system is ATLAS, which the ADE page says began serving in spring 2024. The official public page does not publish a math blueprint there, so the most defensible coverage map is the Arkansas math standards structure that ATLAS is aligned to.

Blueprint & weighting

ATLAS uses the Independent / state-specific framework (by grade domains structure).

At a riding stable, a pony is measured at $15$ hands tall. How many inches tall is the pony? ( $1$ hand $= 4$ inches)

Use a conversion factor with inches in the numerator so hands cancel: $15 \text{ hands} \times \dfrac{4 \text{ in}}{1 \text{ hand}} = 60 \text{ in}$ .

A recipe calls for $5$ cups of broth. How many tablespoons is that? ( $1$ cup $= 8$ fluid ounces and $1$ fluid ounce $= 2$ tablespoons)

Convert cups to fluid ounces, then fluid ounces to tablespoons: $5 \text{ cups} \times \dfrac{8 \text{ fl oz}}{1 \text{ cup}} \times \dfrac{2 \text{ tbsp}}{1 \text{ fl oz}} = 80 \text{ tbsp}$ .

A kitchen prepares $500$ jars of jam. Workers label $8\%$ of the jars before the first break. How many jars are labeled before the first break?

Convert $8\%$ to a decimal and multiply: $0.08 \times 500 = 40$ jars.

A hiking sign lists the distance to a waterfall as $4{,}500$ meters. How many kilometers is that? ( $1$ kilometer $= 1{,}000$ meters)

Use a conversion factor with kilometers in the numerator so meters cancel: $4{,}500 \text{ m} \times \dfrac{1 \text{ km}}{1{,}000 \text{ m}} = 4.5 \text{ km}$ .

A battery test lasts $7$ hours. How many seconds is that? ( $1$ hour $= 60$ minutes and $1$ minute $= 60$ seconds)

Convert hours to minutes, then minutes to seconds: $7 \text{ hr} \times \dfrac{60 \text{ min}}{1 \text{ hr}} \times \dfrac{60 \text{ s}}{1 \text{ min}} = 25{,}200 \text{ s}$ .
