PARCC Grade 4 Math Practice Test Questions

Question 1

1. Which of the following models represents a fraction less than the fraction shown below?

Accepted Answer

B.

Answer

To determine which model represents a fraction less than the given one, visually compare the shaded portions. Model B shows a smaller shaded area relative to its whole, indicating a fraction with a lesser value than the original fraction.

Question 2

2. Travis has a stick that is 5/16 of a meter long, and Steven has a stick that is 7/8 of a meter long. If they lay the sticks end to end how long would they be?

Accepted Answer

1 3/16

Answer

To find the total length, add the two fractions: 5/16 + 7/8. First, find a common denominator, which is 16, converting 7/8 to 14/16. Adding them gives 19/16, which converts to the mixed number 1 and 3/16.

Question 3

3. Which of the following number sentences is represented by the model shown below?

Accepted Answer

35÷7=5

Answer

The model likely shows a total of 35 items divided into 7 equal groups, with 5 items in each group. This visual representation directly illustrates the division problem 35 ÷ 7 = 5.

Question 4

4. Which of the following number sentences belongs in the fact family shown below? 7x6=42 6x7=42 42÷7=6

Accepted Answer

42÷6=7

Answer

A fact family consists of two multiplication and two division facts using the same three numbers. Given 7x6=42, 6x7=42, and 42÷7=6, the missing fact is the other division problem: 42 divided by 6 equals 7.

Question 5

5. Billy is going on vacation. He will travel a total of 1486 miles while he is gone. Location A is 572 miles away from home and then Location B is 437 miles from location B. How long is the trip from Location B back to home?

Accepted Answer

Answer

To find the distance from Location B back to home, first sum the distances already traveled: 572 miles (home to A) + 437 miles (A to B) = 1009 miles. Then, subtract this sum from the total planned travel distance: 1486 miles (total) - 1009 miles (traveled) = 477 miles.
