Outcomes

6.NS.7

Understand ordering and absolute value of rational numbers.

6.NS.7c

Understand the absolute value of a rational number as its distance from 0 on the number line; interpret absolute value as magnitude for a positive or negative quantity in a real-world situation. For example, for an account balance of −30 dollars, write |−30| = 30 to describe the size of the debt in dollars.

6.NS.7d

Distinguish comparisons of absolute value from statements about order. For example, recognize that an account balance less than −30 dollars represents a debt greater than 30 dollars.
