Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 5.201 Represent Problems with Diagrams and Number Lines skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery
A class earns 3 points for each of 9 easy puzzles and 5 points for each of 4 hard puzzles. Which diagram or equation represents the total points?
AOne group model: 9 groups of 5 and 4 groups of 3, so 9 × 5 + 4 × 3 = 57 points
BA bar showing 9 + 3 + 5 + 4 = 21 points
CA number line showing 9 − 3 + 5 − 4 = 7 points
DTwo group models: 9 groups of 3 and 4 groups of 5, so 9 × 3 + 4 × 5 = 47 points
Solution & Explanation:The easy puzzles contribute 9 × 3 = 27 points, and the hard puzzles contribute 4 × 5 = 20 points. The total is 47 points.
Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery
A number line is divided into sixths. It shows four equal jumps of 1/3. Which explanation and endpoint are correct?
AEach 1/3 jump is 1/6, so four jumps make 4/6, or 2/3.
BFour jumps of 1/3 must end at 4/3 of a jump, not a point on the line.
CEach 1/3 jump is 2/6, so four jumps make 8/6, or 1 1/3.
DThe endpoint is 4/6 because the number line is divided into sixths.
Solution & Explanation:On a sixths number line, 1/3 equals 2/6. Four jumps of 2/6 total 8/6 = 1 1/3.
Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery
A snail moves backward 0.6 meter and ends at 2.4 meters from a plant. Which number-line reasoning finds where the snail started?
AStart is 1.8 meters because 2.4 − 0.6 = 1.8.
BStart is 3.0 meters because moving left 0.6 from 3.0 lands at 2.4.
CStart is 2.4 meters because the ending point is always the start.
DStart is 0.6 meter because that is the distance moved.
Solution & Explanation:The ending point is after moving backward. To undo the move, add 0.6 to 2.4, giving a starting point of 3.0 meters.
