Grade Level/ Course (HS): 5th Grade
Standard with
code:
5.MD.2 Make a line plot to display a data set of measurements in fractions of a unit (1/2, 1/4, 1/8). Use operations of
fractions for this grade to solve problems involving information presented in line plots. For example, given different
measurements of liquid in identical beakers, find the amount of liquid each beaker would contain if the total amount in all
the beakers were redistributed equally.
