The following released test questions are taken from the Grade 5 Mathematics Standards Test. This test is
one of the California Standards Tests administered as part of the Standardized Testing and Reporting (STAR)
Program under policies set by the State Board of Education.
All questions on the California Standards Tests are evaluated by committees of content experts, including
teachers and administrators, to ensure their appropriateness for measuring the California academic content
standards in Grade 5 Mathematics. In addition to content, all items are reviewed and approved to ensure their
adherence to the principles of fairness and to ensure no bias exists with respect to characteristics such as
gender, ethnicity, and language.
This document contains released test questions from the California Standards Test forms in 2003, 2004, 2005,
and 2006. First on the pages that follow are lists of the standards assessed on the Grade 5 Mathematics Test.
Next are released test questions. Following the questions is a table that gives the correct answer for each question,
the content standard that each question is measuring, and the year each question last appeared on the test.
The following table lists each strand/reporting cluster, the number of items that appear on the exam, and the
number of released test questions that appear in this document.

TOTAL 65 64
In selecting test questions for release, three criteria are used: (1) the questions adequately cover a selection
of the academic content standards assessed on the Grade 5 Mathematics Test; (2) the questions demonstrate a
range of difficulty; and (3) the questions present a variety of ways standards can be assessed. These released
test questions do not reflect all of the ways the standards may be assessed. Released test questions will not
appear on future tests.

The following five California content standards are included in the Estimation, Percents, and Factoring
reporting cluster of the Number Sense strand and are represented in this booklet by 13 test questions. These
questions represent only some ways in which these standards may be assessed on the Grade 5 California
Mathematics Standards Test.
Number Sense
Standard Set 1.0 Students compute with very large and very small numbers, positive
integers, decimals, and fractions and understand the relationship between
decimals, fractions, and percents. They understand the relative magnitudes
of numbers:
5NS1.1 Estimate, round, and manipulate very large (e.g., millions) and very small (e.g.,
thousandths) numbers.
5NS1.2* Interpret percents as a part of a hundred; find decimal and percent equivalents
for common fractions and explain why they represent the same value; compute a
given percent of a whole number.
5NS1.3 Understand and compute positive integer powers of nonnegative integers;
compute examples as repeated multiplication.
5NS1.4* Determine the prime factors of all numbers through 50 and write the numbers as
the product of their prime factors by using exponents to show multiples of a
factor (e.g., 24 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 = 23 × 3).
5NS1.5* Identify and represent on a number line decimals, fractions, mixed numbers, and
positive and negative integers.

Number Sense
Standard Set 2.0 Students perform calculations and solve problems involving addition,
subtraction, and simple multiplication and division of fractions and
decimals:
5NS2.1* Add, subtract, multiply, and divide with decimals; add with negative integers;
subtract positive integers from negative integers; and verify the reasonableness
of the results.
5NS2.2* Demonstrate proficiency with division, including division with positive decimals
and long division with multidigit divisors.
5NS2.3* Solve simple problems, including ones arising in concrete situations, involving
the addition and subtraction of fractions and mixed numbers (like and unlike
denominators of 20 or less), and express answers in the simplest form.
5NS2.4 Understand the concept of multiplication and division of fractions.
5NS2.5 Compute and perform simple multiplication and division of fractions and apply
these procedures to solving problems.
