ZEARN MATH STUDENT EDITION G6M4 LESSON 3 Lesson Summary If a situation involves equal sized groups it is helpful to make sense of it in terms of the number of groups the size of each group and the total amount Here are three examples to help us better understand such situations Suppose we have 3 bottles with 6 12 ounces of water in each and the total amount of water is not given Here we have 3 groups 6 12 ounces in each group and an unknown total as shown in this diagram 6 12 6 12 6 12 We can express this situation as a multiplication problem The unknown is the product so we can simply multiply the 2 known numbers to find it 3 6 Next suppose we have 20 ounces of water to fill 6 equal sized bottles and the amount in each bottle is not given Here we have 6 groups an unknown amount in each and a total of 20 We can represent it like this 20 1 2 This situation can also be expressed using multiplication but the unknown is a factor rather than the product 6 20 To find the unknown we cannot simply multiply but we can think of it as a division problem 20 6 40 Now suppose we have 40 ounces of water to pour into bottles 12 ounces in each bottle but the number of bottles is not given Here we have an unknown 12 12 number of groups 12 in each group and a total of 40 Again we can think of this in terms of multiplication with a different factor being the unknown 12 40 Likewise we can use division to find the unknown 40 12 Whenever we have a multiplication situation one factor tells us how many groups there are and the other factor tells us how much is in each group Sometimes we want to find the total Sometimes we want to find how many groups there are Sometimes we want to find how much is in each group Anytime we want to find out how many groups there are or how much is in each group we can represent the situation using division 2023 Zearn Licensed to you pursuant to Zearn s Terms of Use This work is a derivative of Open Up Resources 6 8 Math curriculum which is available to download for free at openupresources org and used under the CC BY 4 0 license 17

G6M4 LESSON 7 ZEARN MATH STUDENT EDITION Lesson Summary It is natural to think about groups when we have more than one group but we can also have a fraction of a group To find the amount in a fraction of a group we can multiply the fraction by the amount in the whole group If a bag of rice weighs 5 kg 34 of a bag would weigh 34 5 kg 5 kg 34 5 kg 3 4 bag 1 bag 3 cups 1 2 4 or 9 4 cups group 1 group Sometimes we need to find what fraction group an amount is Suppose a full bag of flour weighs 6 kg A chef used 3 kg of flour What fraction of a full bag was used In other words what fraction of 6 kg is 3 kg This question can be represented by a multiplication equation and a division equation as well as by a diagram 6 3 3 6 6 kg 3 kg bag 1 bag 44 2023 Zearn Licensed to you pursuant to Zearn s Terms of Use This work is a derivative of Open Up Resources 6 8 Math curriculum which is available to download for free at openupresources org and used under the CC BY 4 0 license

G6M5 LESSON 5 ZEARN MATH STUDENT EDITION Lesson Summary 1 1 We can use fractions like 10 and 100 to reason about the location of the decimal point in a product of two decimals Let s take 24 0 1 as an example There are several ways to find the product We can interpret it as 24 groups of 1 tenth or 24 tenths which is 2 4 We can think of it as 24 10 which is equal to 10 and also equal to 2 4 Multiplying by 10 has the same result as dividing by 10 so we can also think of the product as 24 10 which is equal to 2 4 1 24 1 Similarly we can think of 0 7 0 09 as 7 tenths times 9 hundredths and write 1 1 7 10 9 100 We can rearrange whole numbers and fractions 1 1 1 63 7 9 10 100 63 1000 1000 This tells us that 0 7 0 09 0 063 Here is another example To find 1 5 0 43 we can think of 1 5 as 15 tenths and 0 43 as 43 hundredths We can write the tenths and hundredths as fractions and rearrange the factors 1 1 1 1 Multiplying 15 and 43 gives us 645 and multiplying 10 and 100 gives us 1000 So 1 5 0 43 is 645 1000 which is 0 645 140 2023 Zearn Licensed to you pursuant to Zearn s Terms of Use This work is a derivative of Open Up Resources 6 8 Math curriculum which is available to download for free at openupresources org and used under the CC BY 4 0 license

G6M5 LESSON 9 ZEARN MATH STUDENT EDITION We can think of the division by 3 as splitting up 345 into 3 equal groups hundreds tens ones group 1 group 2 group 3 Each group has 1 hundred 1 ten and 5 ones so 345 3 115 Notice that in order to split 345 into 3 equal groups one of the tens had to be unbundled or decomposed into 10 ones Another way to divide 345 by 3 is by using the partial quotients method in which we keep subtracting 3 groups of some amount from 345 115 5 10 100 3 345 300 45 30 15 15 0 3 groups of 100 3 groups of 10 3 groups of 5 115 50 50 15 3 345 45 300 150 150 150 0 3 groups of 15 3 groups of 50 3 groups of 50 In the calculation on the left first we subtract 3 groups of 100 then 3 groups of 10 and then 3 groups of 5 Adding up the partial quotients 100 10 5 gives us 115 The calculation on the right shows a different amount per group subtracted each time 3 groups of 15 3 groups of 50 and 3 more groups of 50 but the total amount in each of the 3 groups is still 115 There are other ways of calculating 345 3 using the partial quotients method Both the base ten diagrams and partial quotients methods are effective If however the dividend and divisor are large as in 1 248 26 then the base ten diagrams will be time consuming 162 2023 Zearn Licensed to you pursuant to Zearn s Terms of Use This work is a derivative of Open Up Resources 6 8 Math curriculum which is available to download for free at openupresources org and used under the CC BY 4 0 license

G6M5 LESSON 10 ZEARN MATH STUDENT EDITION Concept Exploration ACTIVITY 1 3 Lin has a method of calculating quotients that is different from Elena s method and Andre s method Here is how she found the quotient of 657 3 Lin arranged the numbers for vertical calculations Her plan was to divide each digit of 657 into 3 groups starting with the 6 hundreds 3 657 There are 3 groups of 2 in 6 so Lin wrote 2 at the top and subtracted 6 from the 6 leaving 0 Then she brought down the 5 tens of 657 2 3 657 6 05 There are 3 groups of 1 in 5 so she wrote 1 at the top and subtracted 3 from 5 which left a remainder of 2 21 3 657 6 5 3 2 She brought down the 7 ones of 657 and wrote it next to the 2 which made 27 There are 3 groups of 9 in 27 so she wrote 9 at the top and subtracted 27 leaving 0 219 3 657 6 5 3 27 27 0 Discuss with your partner how Lin s method is similar to and different from drawing base ten diagrams or using the partial quotients method 166 Lin subtracted 3 2 then 3 1 and lastly 3 9 Earlier Andre subtracted 3 200 then 3 10 and lastly 3 9 Why did they have the same quotient In the third step why do you think Lin wrote the 7 next to the remainder of 2 rather than adding 7 and 2 to get 9 2023 Zearn Licensed to you pursuant to Zearn s Terms of Use This work is a derivative of Open Up Resources 6 8 Math curriculum which is available to download for free at openupresources org and used under the CC BY 4 0 license

G6M5 LESSON 11 ZEARN MATH STUDENT EDITION Lesson Summary Dividing a whole number by another whole number does not always produce a whole number quotient Let s look at 86 4 which we can think of as dividing 86 into 4 equal groups tens ones unbundle tenths We can see in the base ten diagram that there are 4 groups of 21 in 86 with 2 ones left over To find the quotient we need to distribute the 2 ones into the 4 groups To do this we can unbundle or decompose the 2 ones into 20 tenths which enables us to put 5 tenths in each group Once the 20 tenths are distributed each group will have 2 tens 1 one and 5 tenths so 86 4 21 5 21 5 4 86 8 6 4 20 20 0 174 We can also calculate 86 4 using long division The calculation shows that after removing 4 groups of 21 there are 2 ones remaining We can continue dividing by writing a 0 to the right of the 2 and thinking of that remainder as 20 tenths which can then be divided into 4 groups To show that the quotient we are working with now is in the tenth place we put a decimal point to the right of the 1 which is in the ones place at the top It may also be helpful to draw a vertical line to separate the ones and the tenths There are 4 groups of 5 tenths in 20 tenths so we write 5 in the tenths place at the top The calculation likewise shows 86 4 21 5 2023 Zearn Licensed to you pursuant to Zearn s Terms of Use This work is a derivative of Open Up Resources 6 8 Math curriculum which is available to download for free at openupresources org and used under the CC BY 4 0 license

ZEARN MATH STUDENT EDITION G6M5 LESSON 12 Lesson Summary We know that fractions such as 6 4 and 60 40 are equivalent because Both the numerator and denominator of 60 40 have a factor of 10 so it can be written as Both fractions can be simplified to 600 divided by 400 is 1 5 and 60 divided by 40 is also 1 5 3 2 6 4 Just like fractions division expressions can be equivalent For example the expressions 540 90 and 5 400 900 are both equivalent to 54 9 because They all have a quotient of 6 The dividend and the divisor in 540 90 are each 10 times the dividend and divisor in 54 9 Those in 5 400 900 are each 100 times the dividend and divisor in 54 9 In both cases the quotient does not change This means that an expression such as 5 4 0 9 also has the same value as 54 9 Both the dividend and 1 divisor of 5 4 0 9 are 10 of those in 54 9 In general multiplying a dividend and a divisor by the same number does not change the quotient Multiplying by powers of 10 e g 10 100 1 000 etc can be particularly useful for dividing decimals as we will see in an upcoming lesson 2023 Zearn Licensed to you pursuant to Zearn s Terms of Use This work is a derivative of Open Up Resources 6 8 Math curriculum which is available to download for free at openupresources org and used under the CC BY 4 0 license 181

ZEARN MATH STUDENT EDITION G6M5 LESSON 14 Lesson Summary Diagrams can help us communicate and model mathematics A clearly labeled diagram helps us visualize what is happening in a problem and accurately communicate the information we need Sports offer great examples of how diagrams can help us solve problems For example to show the placement of the running hurdles in a diagram we needed to know what the distances 13 72 and 14 02 meters tell us and the number of hurdles to draw An accurate diagram not only helped us set up and solve the problem correctly but also helped us see that there are only nine spaces between ten hurdles To communicate information clearly and solve problems correctly it is also important to be precise in our measurements and calculations especially when they involve decimals In tennis for example the length of the court is 23 77 meters Because the boundary lines on a tennis court have a significant width we would want to know whether this measurement is taken between the inside of the lines the center of the lines or the outside of the lines Diagrams can help us attend to this detail as shown here The accuracy of this measurement matters to the tennis players who use the court so it matters to those who paint the boundaries as well The tennis players practice their shots to be on or within certain lines If the tennis court on which they play is not precisely measured their shots may not land as intended in relation to the boundaries Court painters usually need to be sure their measurements are 1 accurate to within 100 of a meter or one centimeter outside 23 77 m center 23 77 m 23 77 23 77 m m inside 23 77 23 77 m m 2023 Zearn Licensed to you pursuant to Zearn s Terms of Use This work is a derivative of Open Up Resources 6 8 Math curriculum which is available to download for free at openupresources org and used under the CC BY 4 0 license 193

G6M6 LESSON 3 ZEARN MATH STUDENT EDITION Lesson Summary A hanger stays balanced when the weights on both sides are equal We can change the weights and the hanger will stay balanced as long as both sides are changed in the same way For example adding 2 pounds to each side of a balanced hanger will keep it balanced Removing half of the weight from each side will also keep it balanced An equation can be compared to a balanced hanger We can change the equation but for a true equation to remain true the same thing must be done to both sides of the equal sign If we add or subtract the same number on each side or multiply or divide each side by the same number the new equation will still be true This way of thinking can help us find solutions to equations Instead of checking different values we can think about subtracting the same amount from each side or dividing each side by the same number A B y 11 218 11 5 Diagram A can be represented by the equation 3x 11 Diagram B can be represented with the equation 11 y 5 If we break the 11 into 3 equal parts each part will have the same weight as a block with an x If we remove a weight of 5 from each side of the hanger it will stay in balance Splitting each side of the hanger into 3 equal parts is the same as dividing each side of the equation by 3 Removing 5 from each side of the hanger is the same as subtracting 5 from each side of the equation 3x divided by 3 is x 11 5 is 6 11 divided by 3 is 11 3 y 5 5 is y 3x 11 is true then x 11 3 is true If 11 y 5 is true then 6 y is true The solution to 3x 11 is 11 3 The solution to 11 y 5 is 6 2023 Zearn Licensed to you pursuant to Zearn s Terms of Use This work is a derivative of Open Up Resources 6 8 Math curriculum which is available to download for free at openupresources org and used under the CC BY 4 0 license

ZEARN MATH STUDENT EDITION G6M6 LESSON 5 Lesson Summary In the past you learned that a fraction such as 4 5 can be thought of in a few ways 4 5 is a number you can locate on the number line by dividing the section between 0 and 1 into 5 equal parts and then counting 4 of those parts to the right of 0 4 5 is the share that each person would have if 4 wholes were shared equally among 5 people This means that 45 is the result of dividing 4 by 5 We can extend this meaning of a fraction as a division to fractions whose numerators and denominators are not whole numbers For example we can represent 4 5 pounds of rice divided into portions that each weigh 1 5 pounds as 4 5 1 5 4 5 1 5 3 Fractions that involve non whole numbers can also be used when we solve equations Suppose a road under construction is 38 finished and the length of the completed part is long will the road be when completed We can write the equation 3 8 The completed road will be 3 x 5 9 4 3 4 3 miles How to represent the situation and solve the equation or about 3 6 miles long 3 8 x x 4 3 3 8 4 3 x 4 3 x 32 9 3 8 3 5 9 2023 Zearn Licensed to you pursuant to Zearn s Terms of Use This work is a derivative of Open Up Resources 6 8 Math curriculum which is available to download for free at openupresources org and used under the CC BY 4 0 license 229

ZEARN MATH STUDENT EDITION G6M6 LESSON 8 Lesson Summary We can use diagrams showing lengths of rectangles to see when expressions are equal For example the expressions x 9 and 4x are equal when x is 3 but are not equal for other values of x x x 9 when x 1 x x x x 4x when x 1 x x 9 when x 2 x x x x 4x when x 2 x x x 9 when x 3 x x x 4x when x 3 x x x 9 when x 4 x x x 4x when x 4 Sometimes two expressions are equal for only one particular value of their variable Other times they seem to be equal no matter what the value of the variable Expressions that are always equal for the same value of their variable are called equivalent expressions However it would be impossible to test every possible value of the variable How can we know for sure that expressions are equivalent We use the meaning of operations and properties of operations to know that expressions are equivalent Here are some examples x 3 is equivalent to 3 x because of the commutative property of addition 4 y is equivalent to y 4 because of the commutative property of multiplication a a a a a is equivalent to 5 a because adding 5 copies of something is the same as multiplying it by 5 b 3 is equivalent to b 13 because dividing by a number is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal In the coming lessons we will see how another property the distributive property can show that expressions are equivalent TERMINOLOGY Equivalent expressions 2023 Zearn Licensed to you pursuant to Zearn s Terms of Use This work is a derivative of Open Up Resources 6 8 Math curriculum which is available to download for free at openupresources org and used under the CC BY 4 0 license 249

ZEARN MATH STUDENT EDITION G6M6 LESSON 10 Lesson Summary Here is a rectangle composed of two smaller rectangles A and B 3 2 x A B Based on the drawing we can make several observations about the area of the rectangle One side length of the large rectangle is 3 and the other is 2 x so its area is 3 2 x Since the large rectangle can be decomposed into two smaller rectangles A and B with no overlap the area of the large rectangle is also the sum of the areas of rectangles A and B 3 2 3 x or 6 3x Since both expressions represent the area of the large rectangle they are equivalent to each other 3 2 x is equivalent to 6 3x We can see that multiplying 3 by the sum 2 x is equivalent to multiplying 3 by 2 and then 3 by x and adding the two products This relationship is an example of the distributive property 3 2 x 3 2 3 x 2023 Zearn Licensed to you pursuant to Zearn s Terms of Use This work is a derivative of Open Up Resources 6 8 Math curriculum which is available to download for free at openupresources org and used under the CC BY 4 0 license 261

ZEARN MATH STUDENT EDITION G6M6 LESSON 14 Lesson Summary Exponents give us a new way to describe operations with numbers so we need to understand how exponents get along with the other operations we know When we write 6 42 we want to make sure everyone agrees about how to evaluate this Otherwise some people might multiply first and others compute the exponent first and different people would get different values for the same expression Earlier we saw situations in which 6 42 represented the surface area of a cube with side length 4 units When computing the surface area we evaluate 42 first or find the area of one face of the cube first and then multiply the result by 6 In many other expressions that use exponents the part with an exponent is intended to be evaluated first To make everyone agree about the value of expressions like 6 42 the convention is to evaluate the part of the expression with the exponent first Here are a couple of examples 6 42 45 52 6 16 45 25 96 70 If we want to communicate that 6 and 4 should be multiplied first and then squared then we can use parentheses to group parts together 6 4 2 242 576 2023 Zearn Licensed to you pursuant to Zearn s Terms of Use This work is a derivative of Open Up Resources 6 8 Math curriculum which is available to download for free at openupresources org and used under the CC BY 4 0 license 283

ZEARN MATH STUDENT EDITION G6M6 LESSON 18 Lesson Summary Equations can represent relationships between geometric quantities For instance If s is the side length of a square then the area A is related to A s2 Sometimes the relationships are more specific For example the perimeter P of a rectangle with length l and width w is P 2l 2w If we consider only rectangles with a length of 10 then the relationship between the perimeter and the width is P 20 2w Here is another example of an equation with an exponent expressing the relationship between quantities A super ball is dropped from 10 feet On each successive bounce it only goes 12 as high as on the previous bounce This means that on the first bounce the ball will bounce 5 feet high and then on the second bounce it will only go 212 feet high and so on We can represent this situation with an equation to find how high the super ball will bounce after any number of bounces To find how high the super ball bounces on the nth bounce we have to multiply 10 feet the initial height by 12 and multiply by 12 again for each bounce thereafter we need to do this n times So the height h of the ball on the nth bounce will be h 10 12 n In this equation the dependent variable h is affected by changes in the independent variable n Equations and graphs can give us insight into different kinds of relationships between quantities and help us answer questions and solve problems 2023 Zearn Licensed to you pursuant to Zearn s Terms of Use This work is a derivative of Open Up Resources 6 8 Math curriculum which is available to download for free at openupresources org and used under the CC BY 4 0 license 309
