Common Core Math: Grade 3: Algebraic Thinking

In third grade, students perform multiplication and division with whole numbers up to one hundred, representing and interpreting the results using arrays, partitions, visual representations and equations. Students explore properties of operations, including the inverse relationship between multiplication and division. Using addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, students solve equations for unknown quantities and explore patterns in arithmetic.
