How the SC READY reports it

SC READY is South Carolina’s state assessment program and does not use a national blueprinted framework like SBAC or NAEP. Its math tests are aligned to the 2025 South Carolina College- and Career-Ready Mathematics Standards and organized into state-specific reporting categories.

Blueprint & weighting

The blueprint publishes approximate item-count ranges by reporting category, not percentages. Grade 3: DPSR 7-10, MGSR 15-18, NR 15-18, PAFR 9-13; Grade 4: DPSR 7-9, MGSR 12-15, NR 12-15, PAFR 15-19; Grade 5: DPSR 8-10, MGSR 11-14, NR 9-11, PAFR 17-21; Grade 6: DPSR 9-11, MGSR 11-14, NR 7-9, PAFR 18-21; Grade 7: DPSR 11-14, MGSR 13-17, NR 6-8, PAFR 14-18; Grade 8: DPSR 8-10, MGSR 15-19, NR 7-9, PAFR 14-18. All grades are 50 operational items, with additional field-test items; DOK ranges are 15-40% level 1, 55-85% level 2, and 0-10% level 3.

A beetle is measured at $80$ millimeters long. What is the length in centimeters? ( $1$ centimeter $= 10$ millimeters)

Use a conversion factor with centimeters in the numerator so millimeters cancel: $80 \text{ mm} \times \dfrac{1 \text{ cm}}{10 \text{ mm}} = 8 \text{ cm}$ .

A banquet hall sets out $360$ chairs. Guests have reserved $45\%$ of the chairs. How many chairs have been reserved?

Convert $45\%$ to a decimal and multiply: $0.45 \times 360 = 162$ chairs.

A cooler holds $4$ gallons of lemonade. How many pints is that? ( $1$ gallon $= 4$ quarts and $1$ quart $= 2$ pints)

Convert gallons to quarts, then quarts to pints: $4 \text{ gal} \times \dfrac{4 \text{ qt}}{1 \text{ gal}} \times \dfrac{2 \text{ pt}}{1 \text{ qt}} = 32 \text{ pt}$ .
