About the Reading Math Expressions Worksheet

Reading Math Expressions provides students with an engaging way to practice translating written mathematical expressions into numerical calculations. This interactive and printable worksheet, that aligns with the Common Core State Standards, Reading Math Expressions helps students develop their mathematical literacy by presenting them with various word problems that require multiple operations and sequential problem-solving skills.

The worksheet consists of ten carefully crafted mathematical sentences that students need to solve and match with the correct answers provided on the right side. Each problem incorporates different mathematical operations including addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, along with concepts like finding quotients, products, and working with number relationships. The format encourages students to break down complex mathematical expressions into manageable steps while strengthening their understanding of mathematical vocabulary and order of operations.

Common core standards covered

5.OA.A.2

Write simple expressions that record calculations with numbers, and interpret numerical expressions without evaluating them. For example, express the calculation "add 8 and 7, then multiply by 2" as 2 _ (8 + 7). Recognize that 3 _ (18932 + 921) is three times as large as 18932 + 921, without having to calculate the indicated sum or product.

5.OA.B.3

Generate two numerical patterns using two given rules. Identify apparent relationships between corresponding terms. Form ordered pairs consisting of corresponding terms from the two patterns, and graph the ordered pairs on a coordinate plane. For example, given the rule "Add 3" and the starting number 0, and given the rule "Add 6" and the starting number 0, generate terms in the resulting sequences, and observe that the terms in one sequence are twice the corresponding terms in the other sequence. Explain informally why this is so.
