Sample DC CAPE 2.0 Math Grade 7 Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to test your DC CAPE 2.0 Math Grade 7 exam readiness. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1A DC Metro trip covers 18 miles in 24 minutes at a constant speed. What is the unit rate in miles per minute?
A.0.75 miles per minute
B.1.33 miles per minute
C.42 miles per minute
D.6 miles per minute
Explanation: Unit rate = distance ÷ time = 18 ÷ 24 = 0.75 miles per minute.
2A juice stand mixes 5 liters of juice concentrate with 8 liters of water. What is the unit rate of water per liter of concentrate?
A.1.6 liters of water per liter of concentrate
B.0.625 liters of water per liter of concentrate
C.13 liters of water per liter of concentrate
D.3 liters of water per liter of concentrate
Explanation: Water per liter of concentrate = 8 ÷ 5 = 1.6 liters of water for each liter of concentrate.
3A bike rental on the National Mall costs $12 for 3 hours at a constant hourly rate. What is the constant of proportionality in dollars per hour?
A.$4 per hour
B.$9 per hour
C.$36 per hour
D.$15 per hour
Explanation: k = total cost ÷ hours = 12 ÷ 3 = 4 dollars per hour. Cost = 4 × hours.
4Which equation represents a proportional relationship between y and x with constant of proportionality 6?
A.y = 6x
B.y = x + 6
C.y = 6/x
D.y = 6 − x
Explanation: A proportional relationship has the form y = kx. Here k = 6, so y = 6x. The graph is a line through the origin.
5A map of Washington, D.C. uses a scale of 1 inch : 2 miles. How many miles does 5.5 inches represent?
A.11 miles
B.2.75 miles
C.7.5 miles
D.27.5 miles
Explanation: Miles = 5.5 × 2 = 11. Each inch represents 2 miles.
6A recipe for 4 servings needs 6 cups of rice. How many cups of rice are needed for 10 servings if the ratio stays the same?
A.15 cups
B.12 cups
C.16 cups
D.20 cups
Explanation: Set up 6/4 = x/10. Cross-multiply: 4x = 60, so x = 15. Unit rate is 1.5 cups per serving; 1.5 × 10 = 15.
7Nia deposits $400 in an account that pays 5% simple interest per year. How much interest does the account earn in 2 years?
A.$40
B.$20
C.$440
D.$400
Explanation: Simple interest is I = principal × rate × time. One year of interest is 0.05 × $400 = $20, so two years earn 2 × $20 = $40.
8A backpack originally costs $40 and is on sale for 20% off. What is the sale price before tax?
A.$32
B.$20
C.$8
D.$48
Explanation: Discount = 0.20 × 40 = $8. Sale price = 40 − 8 = $32. Equivalently, 40 × 0.80 = 32.
9A table shows x: 2, 4, 6 and y: 10, 20, 30. What is the constant of proportionality k if y = kx?
A.5
B.8
C.0.2
D.12
Explanation: k = y/x. Check: 10/2 = 5, 20/4 = 5, 30/6 = 5. So k = 5 and y = 5x.
10A printer produces 45 pages in 9 minutes. At this constant rate, how many pages does it produce in 14 minutes?
A.70 pages
B.63 pages
C.54 pages
D.90 pages
Explanation: Unit rate = 45 ÷ 9 = 5 pages per minute. In 14 minutes: 5 × 14 = 70 pages. Proportion: 45/9 = x/14 → x = 70.

About the DC CAPE 2.0 Math Grade 7 Exam

District of Columbia Comprehensive Assessments of Progress in Education (DC CAPE) 2.0 Mathematics — Grade 7 is the District of Columbia's grade/course-level DC CAPE 2.0 statewide summative assessment administered by OSSE beginning SY 2026–27 (first operational window spring 2027). ELA and mathematics content is provided through the Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium against the Common Core State Standards (CCSS), with grades 3–8 using Smarter Balanced summative adjusted blueprints and high school courses using DC end-of-course blueprints. Students test on Pearson TestNav (ADAM management). Official forms mix selected-response, technology-enabled, and constructed-response/performance tasks. OpenExamPrep free practice is an English-language four-option MCQ study adaptation aligned to public OSSE/Smarter Balanced/NGSS frameworks—not official secure items, not a full TE/CR/PT simulation, and not a substitute for classroom instruction or the official assessment.

Assessment

DC CAPE 2.0 Math Grade 7 Study Tips from Top Performers

1Use OSSE-linked practice/sample resources and Smarter Balanced sample items so students learn digital tools and item interactions.
2Align review to grade-level Common Core (ELA/math) or NGSS (science) expectations named in OSSE CAPE 2.0 materials—not only generic worksheets.
3Review wrong answers by claim or science domain (reading/writing/research; concepts/procedures; life/physical/Earth) to target instruction.
4Use short, frequent practice sessions across the year rather than cramming only in the spring window.
5For performance-task and constructed-response skills, practice evidence selection, planning, modeling, and revision even when using MCQ study items.
