Tennessee Academic Standards
TN.4.OA. Operations and Algebraic Thinking (OA)
4.OA.A. Use the four operations with whole numbers to solve problems.
4.OA.A.1. Interpret a multiplication equation as a comparison (e.g., interpret 35 = 5 x 7 as a statement that 35 is 5 times as many as 7 and 7 times as many as 5). Represent verbal statements of multiplicative comparisons as multiplication equations.
4.OA.A.2. Multiply or divide to solve contextual problems involving multiplicative comparison, and distinguish multiplicative comparison from additive comparison. For example, school A has 300 students and school B has 600 students: to say that school B has two times as many students is an example of multiplicative comparison; to say that school B has 300 more students is an example of additive comparison.
4.OA.A.3. Solve multi-step contextual problems posed with whole numbers and having whole-number answers using the four operations, including problems in which remainders must be interpreted. Represent these problems using equations with a letter standing for the unknown quantity. Assess the reasonableness of answers using mental computation and estimation strategies including rounding.
TN.4.NBT. Number and Operations in Base Ten (NBT)
4.NBT.B. Use place value understanding and properties of operations to perform multi-digit arithmetic.
4.NBT.B.5. Multiply a whole number of up to four digits by a one-digit whole number and multiply two two-digit numbers, using strategies based on place value and the properties of operations. Illustrate and explain the calculation by using equations, rectangular arrays, and/or area models.
