How the Maine MTA reports it

Maine Through-Year Assessment is Maine’s state assessment program delivered with NWEA MAP Growth item pools and through-year administration. The public sources identify it as a Maine DOE assessment aligned to Common Core State Standards in math, but Maine uses its own through-year blueprint rather than a separate national framework.

Blueprint & weighting

No official per-domain item weighting was located in the Maine DOE public assessment posts or the cited pages. The public Maine DOE materials emphasize a through-year model with fall-to-spring growth measurement rather than a published domain-by-domain blueprint.

Which property is 2×(3+5)=2×3+2×5\color{red}{2\times}\color{blue}{(3+5)}\color{black}{\,=\,}\color{red}{2\times}\color{blue}{3+}\color{red}{2\times}\color{blue}{5}?

2×(3+5)=2×3+2×5\color{red}{2\times}\color{blue}{(3+5)}\color{black}{\,=\,}\color{red}{2\times}\color{blue}{3+}\color{red}{2\times}\color{blue}{5} shows multiplying across a sum does not change the answer, so the expressions are equal in value. This is the distributive property.

What is 3÷13 \div 1?

1×3=31 \times 3 = 3, so 3÷1=33 \div 1 = 3.

What is 2×72 \times 7?

2×7=142 \times 7 = 14.

Practice playeasy

Which property is 6×1=66 \times 1 = 6?

6×1=66 \times 1 = 6 shows multiplying by 11 does not change the answer, so the expressions are equal in value. This is the identity property.

Practice playeasy

What is 30÷1030 \div 10?

10×3=3010 \times 3 = 30, so 30÷10=330 \div 10 = 3.
