Sample New Jersey NJSLA-Adaptive Math Grade 5 Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to test your New Jersey NJSLA-Adaptive Math Grade 5 exam readiness. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1What is the value of (8 + 3) × 2?
A.22
B.14
C.16
D.11
Explanation: Evaluate inside the parentheses first: 8 + 3 = 11. Then multiply: 11 × 2 = 22.
2Evaluate 2 × [3 + (4 − 1)].
A.12
B.9
C.13
D.10
Explanation: Work from the inside out: 4 − 1 = 3, then 3 + 3 = 6, then 2 × 6 = 12.
3Which expression represents "add 4 and 8, then multiply the sum by 5"?
A.5 × (4 + 8)
B.(5 × 4) + 8
C.5 + 4 × 8
D.5 × 4 + 5 × 8
Explanation: The words "add 4 and 8" form the sum (4 + 8); "then multiply by 5" gives 5 × (4 + 8).
4Which expression represents "subtract 3 from 15, then divide by 4"?
A.(15 − 3) ÷ 4
B.15 − 3 ÷ 4
C.15 ÷ (4 − 3)
D.(15 ÷ 4) − 3
Explanation: First form the difference 15 − 3, then divide that result by 4, so the difference must be grouped: (15 − 3) ÷ 4.
5Evaluate (6 + 4) × (9 − 3).
A.60
B.39
C.54
D.42
Explanation: Evaluate each grouping: 6 + 4 = 10 and 9 − 3 = 6. Then multiply: 10 × 6 = 60.
6Pattern A starts at 0 and adds 3 each time. Pattern B starts at 0 and adds 6 each time. Which statement describes the relationship between corresponding terms?
A.Each term in Pattern B is 2 times the corresponding term in Pattern A
B.Each term in Pattern B is 3 more than the corresponding term in Pattern A
C.Each term in Pattern B is 6 times the corresponding term in Pattern A
D.The two patterns always have equal terms
Explanation: Pattern A: 3, 6, 9, 12... Pattern B: 6, 12, 18, 24... Each B term (6, 12, 18) is exactly 2 times the matching A term (3, 6, 9).
7Pattern x starts at 0 and adds 2 each time. Pattern y starts at 0 and adds 5 each time. Ordered pairs are formed from corresponding terms. What is the y-value when x = 8?
A.20
B.18
C.23
D.25
Explanation: Pattern x: 2, 4, 6, 8... (the 4th term is 8). Pattern y: 5, 10, 15, 20... The 4th y-term is 20, so the pair is (8, 20).
8Which expression represents "the sum of a number n and 7, multiplied by 3"?
A.3(n + 7)
B.3n + 7
C.n + 21
D.3n
Explanation: The sum n + 7 is grouped first, and then the whole sum is multiplied by 3, giving 3(n + 7).
9Pattern A starts at 2 and adds 4 each time. Pattern B starts at 5 and adds 4 each time. Which statement is true about corresponding terms?
A.Each Pattern B term is 3 more than the corresponding Pattern A term
B.Each Pattern B term is 2 times the corresponding Pattern A term
C.The difference between the terms grows each time
D.Pattern B terms are 5 more than Pattern A terms
Explanation: Pattern A: 2, 6, 10, 14... Pattern B: 5, 9, 13, 17... Both add 4, so the difference stays constant at 5 − 2 = 3. Each B term is 3 more than the matching A term.
10Ordered pairs are formed from Pattern x (1, 2, 3, 4, 5...) and Pattern y (3, 6, 9, 12, 15...). The points form a line on the coordinate plane. Which ordered pair also lies on this line?
A.(6, 18)
B.(6, 15)
C.(6, 9)
D.(6, 21)
Explanation: Pattern y is 3 times Pattern x, so y = 3x. When x = 6, y = 3 × 6 = 18, giving the pair (6, 18).

New Jersey NJSLA-Adaptive Math Grade 5 Study Tips from Top Performers

1Line up decimal points before adding or subtracting so place values match.
2Rewrite unlike denominators as equivalent fractions before you add or subtract.
3Think of volume as filling a box with unit cubes, then count layers.
4Plot points on the coordinate plane using (x, y): move right first, then up.
5For division, estimate first to check that your quotient is reasonable.
