    Grade 7 Smarter Balanced Assessment Item Specifications Fact Sheet 

    Claim 1 ‐ Target A: Analyze proportional relationships and use them to solve real‐world and 
    mathematical problems. 
    Content Domain: Ratios and Proportional Relationships 
    Claim 1 Priority Cluster 
     

    Standards Assessed in Target A: 
    7.RP.1: Compute unit rates associated with ratios of fractions, including ratios of lengths, areas and other 
    quantities measured in like or different units.  
    7.RP.2: Recognize and represent proportional relationships between quantities. 
    a. Decide whether two quantities are in a proportional relationship, e.g., by testing for equivalent ratios in a table 
    or graphing on a coordinate plane and observing whether the graph is a straight line through the origin. 
    b. Identify the constant of proportionality (unit rate) in tables, graphs, equations, diagrams, and verbal 
    descriptions of proportional relationships. 
    c. Represent proportional relationships by equations.   
    d. Explain what a point (x, y) on the graph of a proportional relationship means in terms of the situation, with 
    special attention to the points (0, 0) and (1, r) where r is the unit rate. 
    7.RP.3: Use proportional relationships to solve multistep ratio and percent problems. Examples: simple interest, 
    tax, markups and markdowns, gratuities and commissions, fees, percent increase and decrease, percent error. 

    Achievement Level Descriptors 
    Students should be able to identify proportional relationships presented in graphical, 
    Level 1  tabular, or verbal formats in familiar contexts. 
    Students should be able to find whole number proportionality constants in relationships 
    presented in graphical, tabular, or verbal formats in familiar contexts. They should also 
    Level 2  be able to identify proportional relationships presented in equation formats and find 
    unit rates involving whole numbers. 
    Students should be able to identify, represent, and analyze proportional relationships in 
    various formats; find unit rates associated with ratios of fractions; and use unit rates to 
    Level 3  solve one‐step problems involving rational numbers. They should be able to analyze a 
    graph of a proportional relationship in order to explain what the points (x, y) and (1, r) 
    represent, where r is the unit rate, and use this information to solve problems. 
    Students should be able to solve real‐world problems involving proportional 
    relationships and measurement conversions in various formats (e.g., verbally, tabular, 
    Level 4  graphically) in a contextual scenario that involves identifying relationships between 
    elements presented in various formats. 
     

    Construct‐Relevant Vocabulary 
    constant of proportionality, origin, percent decrease, percent error, percent increase, proportional 
    relationship, ratio, unit rate 
     

    Allowable Stimulus Materials 
    two‐way tables, graphs of both non‐linear and linear equations, equations in two variables, diagrams 
     

    Allowable Tools 
    Calculator
