Standards basis

New Jersey Student Learning Standards for Mathematics (NJSLS-M), aligned to Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSS-M) — New Jersey

How the NJSLA reports it

NJSLA math is built on the New Jersey Student Learning Standards for Mathematics, which closely follow the Common Core domain structure and progressions. The assessment is organized by grade-level and end-of-course reporting aligned to those standards rather than by a separate proprietary framework.

Blueprint & weighting

NJDOE publishes statewide assessment administration information and grade/course coverage, but no official public math-domain weighting blueprint was located in the retrieved primary materials.

Compute $|0|$ .

$0$ is its own distance from $0$ , so $|0| = 0$ .

What is $5.70 \times 5$ ?

$5.70 \times 5 = 28.5$ .

What is $\dfrac{3}{5} \times \dfrac{1}{6}$ ?

Multiply across: $\dfrac{3 \times 1}{5 \times 6} = \dfrac{3}{30} = \dfrac{1}{10}$ .

What is the distance on the real number line from $0$ to $-\dfrac{23}{8}$ ?

Distance from zero is absolute value: $\left|-\dfrac{23}{8}\right| = \dfrac{23}{8}$ .

Practice playeasy

What is $|11 - 10|$ ?

First compute the difference: $11 - 10 = 1$ . Then take the absolute value: $|1| = 1$ .

What is $7.04 - 1.68$ ?

$7.04 - 1.68 = 5.36$ .

Practice playeasy

What is $\dfrac{5}{6} \div \dfrac{3}{5}$ ?

Multiply by the reciprocal: $\dfrac{5}{6} \times \dfrac{5}{3} = \dfrac{25}{18} = \dfrac{25}{18}$ .

On the real number line, how many integers are strictly between $-\dfrac{83}{7}$ and $\dfrac{67}{4}$ ?

Convert the bounds: $-\dfrac{83}{7} \approx -11.86$ and $\dfrac{67}{4} = 16.75$ . Strictly between means integers $n$ with $-\dfrac{83}{7} < n < \dfrac{67}{4}$ , so $n$ runs from $-11$ through $16$ , including $0$ . Count with $16 - (-11) + 1$ : subtracting endpoints gives the gap between them; the $+1$ counts both $-11$ and $16$ inclusive.
