Monday, August 24, 2015 Standards: a. Understand that multiplication is extended from fractions to rational numbers by requiring that operations continue to satisfy the properties of operations, particularly the distributive property, leading to products such as (-1)(-1) = 1 and the rules for multiplying signed numbers. b. Interpret products of rational numbers by describing real-world contexts. c. Understand that integers can be divided, provided that the divisor is not zero, and every quotient of integers (with non-zero divisors) is a rational number. If p and q are integers, then (p/q) = (-p)/q = p/(-q). d. Interpret quotients of rational numbers by describing real-world contexts. e.
