Understand ratio concepts and use ratio reasoning to solve problems

Standards basis

Utah Core Standards for Mathematics (CCSS-aligned Utah math standards) — Utah

How the RISE reports it

Utah’s RISE mathematics assessment is a state assessment aligned to Utah Core Standards rather than a separately branded national framework. The official Utah pages point to Utah Core standards resources and the RISE administration guidance, with no separate public math blueprint published on the assessment page itself.

Blueprint & weighting

RISE mathematics weighting by domain was not located on the official Utah assessment page; the official page only points to the RISE assessment overview/administration resources and the Utah Core Standards resources. Grade 6 administration guidance notes a two-segment math test with Segment 1 no calculator and Segment 2 calculator allowed, and the proctor guide states Mathematics has an expected testing time of 90 minutes for most students and 135 minutes for all students.
