Ohio State Tests Grade 6 Geometry and Statistics. Practice it free.

Ohio's State Test grade 6 math subscore combining geometry and statistics — area, surface area, and volume problems and polygons in the coordinate plane, with statistical variability and summarizing distributions (Ohio's Learning Standards Geometry and Statistics and Probability domains). This Grade 6 reporting domain maps to 8 practice skills and 8 representative questions from the playable bank.

What the test measures

Geometry and Statistics skills

  1. Solve real-world and mathematical problems involving area, surface area, and volume

  2. Develop understanding of statistical variability and summarize and describe distributions

Standards basis

Ohio's Learning Standards (mathematics) — Common Core-derived (CCSS-M) — Ohio

How the Ohio State Tests reports it

Ohio's State Tests are Ohio-specific assessments built around Ohio's Learning Standards for Mathematics, which are CCSS-derived and retain the Common Core grade-level domains and (at high school) conceptual categories nearly verbatim. Math is tested in grades 3-8 and via end-of-course exams; the high-school graduation pathway uses Algebra I and Geometry, but students in an integrated sequence take Integrated Mathematics I and II in their place (these integrated courses are not given their own bands here — Integrated Math I draws on the same Algebra/Functions/Number & Quantity/Geometry/Statistics content as Algebra I plus early Geometry, and Integrated Math II adds the remaining Geometry/Functions/Probability content). The reporting categories below are the official math subscore categories Ohio publishes per test; because no public item-percentage blueprint was retrievable, the cluster-level Common Core domains those subscores cover are used (the standards' grade-level domains, which the reporting categories mirror).

Blueprint & weighting

Ohio publishes per-test math subscore (reporting) categories in its Subscore Definitions chart and raw-score subscale ranges, but no public per-category item-percentage blueprint was retrievable; the statistical summaries report the number of items per subscore by administration rather than a fixed blueprint weighting.

Find the area of a parallelogram with base b=2b = 2 and height h=9h = 9.

Parallelogram area =bh=29=18= b \cdot h = 2 \cdot 9 = 18.

A fitness tracker recorded daily step counts, in thousands of steps, over 1414 days. The frequency table shows the results.
Steps (thousands)Number of days5382114143172\begin{array}{c|c} \text{Steps (thousands)} & \text{Number of days} \\ \hline 5 & 3 \\ 8 & 2 \\ 11 & 4 \\ 14 & 3 \\ 17 & 2 \end{array}

What is the mean step count per day?

Multiply each step count by its frequency and add: (5×3)+(8×2)+(11×4)+(14×3)+(17×2)=151(5 \times 3) + (8 \times 2) + (11 \times 4) + (14 \times 3) + (17 \times 2) = 151. With 1414 days, the mean is 1511410.79\dfrac{151}{14} \approx 10.79 thousand steps.

Students answered the statistical question "How many snacks did you pack?" The data are 3,5,7,133, 5, 7, 13. What is the mean of the data?

The mean describes the center: add the values and divide by how many there are. 3+5+7+13=283 + 5 + 7 + 13 = 28, and 28÷4=728 \div 4 = 7.

A student is writing questions about pets. Which of these is a statistical question?

A statistical question anticipates variability: many people or things can give different answers. "How many pets does each family on my street own?" asks about many families, so the numbers can differ. It is a statistical question.

A bookstore tracks five daily sales totals, in dollars: 1010, 1515, 2020, 2525, and 3030. A sixth day with sales of 2020 is added to the data set. How does this affect the mean?

The mean of the original five totals is 10+15+20+25+305=20\dfrac{10+15+20+25+30}{5}=20 dollars. Because the new value equals the current mean, the mean stays 2020.

Five afternoon temperatures, in degrees Fahrenheit, are 68,68\textsf{,} 72,72\textsf{,} 65,65\textsf{,} 74,74\textsf{,} and 71.71\textsf{.} What is the mean temperature?

Mean =68+72+65+74+715=3505=70= \dfrac{68 + 72 + 65 + 74 + 71}{5} = \dfrac{350}{5} = 70.

Find the mode of the data set 4, 4, 7, 9, 10, 11.

The mode is the value that appears most often. Only 44 appears twice, so the mode is 44.

Seven morning temperatures, in degrees Fahrenheit, are 58,58\textsf{,} 80,80\textsf{,} 70,70\textsf{,} 62,62\textsf{,} 72,72\textsf{,} 64,64\textsf{,} and 56.56\textsf{.} What is the median temperature?

In order, the values are 56,56\textsf{,} 58,58\textsf{,} 62,62\textsf{,} 64,64\textsf{,} 70,70\textsf{,} 72,72\textsf{,} 80.80\textsf{.} The median is the middle value, 64.64\textsf{.}
