Outcomes

6.NS.7

Understand ordering and absolute value of rational numbers.

6.NS.7a

Interpret statements of inequality as statements about the relative position of two numbers on a number line diagram. For example, interpret −3 > −7 as a statement that −3 is located to the right of −7 on a number line oriented from left to right.

6.NS.7b

Write, interpret, and explain statements of order for rational numbers in real-world contexts. For example, write −3°C > −7°C to express the fact that −3°C is warmer than −7 °C.
