On Core Mathematics is a comprehensive, ready-made resource providing instruction, practice and assessment for each Common Core State Mathematics Standard at your grade level. Designed to be used hand-in-hand with your current elementary math series, On Core offers you a flexible way to fill in any gaps between your series and the new standards. Whether you use just the lessons you need, or decide use the entire student workbook for comprehensive Common Core coverage, On Core provides a complete Common Core solution in just four components:

student edition: provides a searchable database of additional worksheets, projects, and hands-on activities correlated to the Common Core State Standards. Helps teachers focus on the mathematical practices.

Teacher edition: Instructional support for each Common Core Standards lesson. The three part, research-based lesson plan (Introduce, Teach, and Practice), that uses manipulatives and powerful visual models, provides everything needed to use the content.

assessment Guide: One page of assessment for each standard in multiple-choice, free-response and constructed response formats.

Exam View® online assessment: Administer premade print or online assessments or create your own with this powerful online tool aligned to the Common Core Standards.

Step 1 Write the relationship among the percent, part, and whole. The percent is 60%. The part is 54. The whole is unknown.

Step 2 Write the percent as a ratio.

Step 3 Simplify the known ratio.

• Find the GCF of the numerator and denominator.

60 5 2 3 2 3 3 3 5

100 5 2 3 2 3 5 3 5

• Divide both the numerator and denominator by the GCF.

Step 4 Write an equivalent ratio.

• Multiply the denominator by 18 to fi nd the whole.

So, 54 is 60% of 90.

About the MathThe relationship among the part, percent, and whole can be used to find the whole when the percent and part are given. Students will support their learning when they look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.

The LessonIntroduce Remind students that they have used equivalent ratios to find the part, given the percent and the whole. In this lesson they will use equivalent ratios to find the whole, given the percent and the part.

Teach Point out to students that both ratios in Step 2 represent part ____ whole . A percent

is part out of 100, so 60 is the part and 100 is the whole. In the second ratio, 54 is the part and the whole is unknown.

Explain to students that simplifying the known ratio makes it easier to find the equivalent ratio.

Extend the process of finding the whole given a part and the percent by having students estimate first. Then have them check to see if their answers are reasonable.

Practice Have students complete page 28. You may wish to review the process by discussing the first exercise.

Exponents

About the MathExponents can be considered as a shorthand method for representing repeated multiplication. Students will be able to relate powers of 10 to the base-ten number system. Each place value is 10 times the place to its right. Students will support their learning when they look for and make use of structure.

The LessonIntroduce Remind students that multiplication is an easier way of writing repeated addition of the same addend. Then tell them that in this lesson they will learn an easier way to represent repeated multiplication of the same factor, such as 2 3 2 3 2 3 2 3 2 3 2 3 2.

Teach Discuss the meaning of exponent and base with the students. The exponent tells how many times a number is used as a factor. The base is the number that is being multiplied repeatedly. So, the multiplication above can be written as 2 7 . Have students write a multiplication expression with a repeated factor for a partner to evaluate.

Extend the process of writing expressions with exponents to include two different repeated factors. Then have students determine the exponent for a product, given the base.

Lesson 54

Problem Solving • Combine Like Terms

Read each problem and solve.

1. A box of pens costs $3 and a box of markers costs $5. The expression 3p 1 5p represents the cost in dollars to make p packages that includes 1 box of pens and 1 box of markers. Simplify the expression by combining like terms.

2. On a heating bill, a gas company charges customers two different fees based on t therms used. The service fee costs $0.25 per therm and the distribution fee costs $0.10 per therm. The expression 0.25t 1 0.10t 1 40 represents the total bill in dollars. Simplify the expression by combining like terms.

3. A radio show lasts for h hours. During that time, there are 60 minutes of air time per hour and 8 minutes of commercials per hour. The expression 60h 2 8h represents the air time in minutes available for talk and music. Simplify the expression by combining like terms.

4. A publisher sends 100 books to each bookstore where its books are sold. About 3 books are sold at a discount to employees and about 40 books are sold during store supersales. The expression 100s 2 3s 2 40s represents the number of books for s stores that are sold at full price. Simplify the expression by combining like terms.

5. A sub shop sells a meal that includes an Italian sub for $6 and chips for $2. If a customer purchases more than 3 meals, he or she receives a $5 discount. The expression 6m 1 2m 2 5 shows the cost in dollars of the customer’s order for m $ 3. Simplify the expression by combining like terms.

Lesson Objective: Combine like terms by applying the strategy use a model.

COMMON CORE STANDARD CC.6.EE.3

Lesson 54

Problem Solving • Combine Like TermsUse a bar model to solve the problem.

Each hour a company assembles 10 bikes and then packages 6 of those bikes for local shipment. An employee tests 1 bike each day. The expression 10h 2 6h 2 1 represents the number of bikes produced for international shipment in h hours. Simplify the expression by combining like terms.

Read the Problem

What do I need to fi nd?

I need to simplify the

expression .

What information do I need to use?

I need to use the like terms

10h and .

How will I use the information?

I can use a bar model to fi nd the difference of

the terms.

Draw a bar model to subtract from . Each square represents h, or 1h.

Solve the Problem

The model shows that 10h 2 6h 5 . 10h 2 6h 2 1 5 2 1

So, a simplifi ed expression for the number of bikes is .

1. Bradley sells produce in boxes at the local farmer’s market. He put 6 ears of corn and 9 tomatoes in each box. The expression 6b 1 9b represents the total pieces of produce in b boxes. Simplify the expression by combining like terms.

2. Andre bought pencils in packs of 8. He gave 2 pencils to his sister and 3 pencils from each pack to his friends. The expression 8p 2 3p 2 2 represents the number of pencils Andre has left from p packs. Simplify the expression by combining like terms.

About the MathVariables can be used to write expressions when solving problems. Expressions containing like terms can be simplified by combining like terms. Students will support their learning when they model with mathematics.

The LessonIntroduce Remind students that they have used variables to write expressions. In this lesson they will simplify expressions.

Teach Discuss the meaning of like terms as terms that have the same variable to the same power. Remind students that constants are like terms. The model shows that 10h in the first row and 6h in the second row can be combined, in this case subtracted. Have students cross out 6h from each row to show that there are 4h left. Point out that 1 is a constant and does not have the variable h so it cannot be combined.

Extend the process of combining like terms to include adding or subtracting the coefficients of the like terms to combine.

Practice Have students complete page 108. You may wish to review the process by discussing the first exercise.
