ARM 10.54.4013. BENCHMARK FOR MATHEMATICS CONTENT STANDARD 1 UPON GRADUATION

(1) The benchmark for mathematics content standard 1 for a student upon graduation is the ability to: (a) use multiple notations to perform and interpret the effects of operations on very large and very small numbers with and without technology; (b) identify situations where estimation is appropriate and determine the degree of accuracy needed for a given problem situation (and the appropriate precision in which to report answers); (c) given a representation of a number or expression, find equivalent representations using multiple notations (e.g., x to the ½ vs. the square root of x and visual representation of multiplying binomials); (d) analyze and apply the properties of numbers and number systems; and (e) identify givens and unknowns in familiar and unfamiliar situations (e.g., finance, culture, including Montana American Indians, and nature) and describe relationships between variables.
