Absolute Value

6th Grade

Alabama Course of Study Standards: 12

Explain the meaning of absolute value and determine the absolute value of rational numbers in real-world contexts.

Arkansas Academic Standards: 6.NS.C.7.C

  • 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.

Arizona - K-12 Academic Standards: 6.NS.C.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 real-world context.

Common Core State Standards: Math.6.NS.7c or 6.NS.C.7.C

Kentucky Academic Standards (KAS): 6.NS.7.c

Mississippi College- and Career-Readiness Standards: 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.

Georgia Standards of Excellence (GSE): 6.NR.3.5

Explain the absolute value of a rational number as its distance from zero on the number line; interpret absolute value as distance for a positive or negative quantity in a relevant situation.

New York State Next Generation Learning Standards: 6.NS.7.c

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.
e.g., For an account balance of –30 dollars, write |–30| = 30 to describe the size of the debt in dollars.

Tennessee Academic Standards: 6.NS.C.7.c

Understand the absolute value of a rational number as its distance from 0 on the number line and distinguish comparisons of absolute value from statements about order in a real-world context. For example, an account balance of -24 dollars represents a greater debt than an account balance -14 dollars because -24 is located to the left of -14 on the number line

Wisconsin Academic Standards: 6.NS.C.7.c

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.

Arkansas Academic Standards: 6.NS.C.7.D

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.

Arizona - K-12 Academic Standards: 6.NS.C.7d

Distinguish comparisons of absolute value from statements about order in mathematical problems and problems in real-world context.

Common Core State Standards: Math.6.NS.7d or 6.NS.C.7.D

Kentucky Academic Standards (KAS): 6.NS.7.d

Mississippi College- and Career-Readiness Standards: 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.

Georgia Standards of Excellence (GSE): 6.NR.3.6

Distinguish comparisons of absolute value from statements about order.

New York State Next Generation Learning Standards: 6.NS.7.d

Distinguish comparisons of absolute value from statements about order.
e.g., Someone with a balance of $100 in their bank account has more money than someone with a balance of –$1,000, because 100 > –1,000. But, the second person’s debt balance is much greater than the first person’s credit balance because |–1,000| > |100|.

Wisconsin Academic Standards: 6.NS.C.7.d

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.

Pennsylvania Core Standards: CC.2.1.6.E.4

Apply and extend previous understandings of numbers to thesystem of rational numbers.

Pennsylvania Core Standards: M06.A-N.3.2.2

Interpret the absolute value of a rational number as its distance from 0 on the number line and as a magnitude for a positive or negative quantity in a real-world situation.
