About the Expressions with Arithmetic Operations Worksheet

Expressions with Arithmetic Operations is a comprehensive mathematical learning resource that focuses on understanding the proper order of operations in arithmetic expressions. This interactive and printable worksheet, that aligns with the Common Core State Standards, Expressions with Arithmetic Operations helps students develop their understanding of how parentheses and operation sequences affect mathematical calculations. Through ten carefully structured problems, students must identify the correct mathematical notation for given word problems without performing the actual calculations.

The worksheet features a two-page layout with multiple-choice questions where students must choose between two expressions that could represent the given word problem. Each question increases in complexity, starting with simple two-step operations and progressing to more complex three-step operations involving addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. The focus is on understanding how parentheses and the order of operations influence the structure of mathematical expressions, rather than on computing the final answers.

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.
