Work with ratios, rates, and proportional relationships as number-system applications
Use properties of operations to generate equivalent expressions
Apply integer, fraction, decimal, and percent operations
Use exponents, roots, and scientific notation in later grades

Standards basis

Common Core State Standards–aligned math content progressions (NWEA MAP Growth mathematics instructional areas/goals) — national

How the MAP Growth reports it

MAP Growth is a national interim assessment system built around NWEA’s own instructional areas/goals rather than a state test blueprint. Its math structure is aligned to CCSS-like content progressions and uses aspects of rigor as a cognitive dimension, but those rigor labels are not content domains.

Blueprint & weighting

NWEA publishes MAP Growth as a computer-adaptive assessment with content distributed across instructional areas/goals, but a stable public percentage weighting by instructional area was not located in the accessible official materials reviewed.

A recipe uses $3$ cups of flour to make $18$ muffins. At this rate, how many cups of flour are needed to make $30$ muffins?

Set up a proportion: $\dfrac{3}{18} = \dfrac{x}{30}$ , so $18x = 90$ and $x = 5$ cups.

$x$ and $y$ are in the ratio $8$ to $3$ . Given that $y = 45$ , what is $x$ ?

$\dfrac{x}{y} = \dfrac{8}{3}$ . With $y = 45$ , $\dfrac{x}{45} = \dfrac{8}{3}$ , so $3x = 360$ and $x = 120$ .
