The standard
Solve problems by writing and solving equations of the form x ± p = q, px = q and x/p = q for cases in which p, q and x are all nonnegative rational numbers.
Element 6.PAR.7.3 of Georgia's K-12 Mathematics Standards (2021, effective SY2023-24), in the Patterning & Algebraic Reasoning strand. It sits under standard 6.PAR.7: Write and solve one-step equations and inequalities as mathematical models to explain authentic, realistic situations.
What students practice
Students solve all four forms in the element, adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing, with whole numbers, fractions, and decimals, and with the letter on either side of the equal sign. A decoding page checks answers, and story pages write the equation before solving it. Every value is positive.
