SCDE Scoring Reports

The SC READY Grade 4 Mathematics assessment is South Carolina's official annual statewide test for fourth graders. It evaluates math proficiency across five content domains: Operations & Algebraic Thinking (28%), Number & Operations in Base Ten (22%), Number & Operations - Fractions (28%), Measurement & Data (14%), and Geometry (8%). The assessment is untimed, calculator-free for Grade 4, and uses multiple-choice and technology-enhanced question types. Student proficiency is classified into four levels: Level 1 (Does Not Meet), Level 2 (Approaches), Level 3 (Meets), and Level 4 (Exceeds).

Sample SC READY Math Grade 4 Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to test your SC READY Math Grade 4 exam readiness. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1A red ribbon is 6 inches long. A blue ribbon is 4 times as long as the red ribbon. How long is the blue ribbon?
A.10 inches
B.20 inches
C.24 inches
D.30 inches
Explanation: To find a length that is 4 times as long as 6 inches, multiply 6 by 4: 6 × 4 = 24 inches.
2Which equation represents the statement: '35 is 5 times as many as 7'?
A.35 + 5 = 40
B.35 - 7 = 28
C.35 = 5 × 7
D.35 ÷ 5 = 6
Explanation: The phrase '5 times as many as 7' translates to 5 × 7. The statement '35 is...' sets this equal to 35, giving 35 = 5 × 7.
3Maya saved $8. Her older brother Marcus saved 6 times as much money as Maya. How much money did Marcus save?
A.$14
B.$42
C.$48
D.$56
Explanation: Multiply Maya's savings ($8) by 6: 8 × 6 = $48.
4Sam bought 4 packs of pencils with 12 pencils in each pack. He already had 15 pencils at home. How many pencils does Sam have in all?
A.51
B.63
C.72
D.108
Explanation: First find total new pencils: 4 × 12 = 48. Then add pencils at home: 48 + 15 = 63 pencils.
5A teacher has 95 craft sticks to share equally among 4 groups of students. Any leftover sticks will be put in a supply box. How many craft sticks will be put in the supply box?
A.23
B.24
C.3
D.1
Explanation: Divide 95 by 4: 95 ÷ 4 = 23 R 3 (since 4 × 23 = 92, and 95 - 92 = 3). The remainder 3 represents the leftover craft sticks.
6Which list contains all the factor pairs of 18?
A.1 and 18; 2 and 9; 3 and 6
B.1 and 18; 2 and 8; 4 and 6
C.2 and 9; 3 and 6
D.1 and 18; 3 and 5
Explanation: The factor pairs of 18 are pairs of numbers that multiply to 18: 1 × 18 = 18, 2 × 9 = 18, and 3 × 6 = 18.
7Which of the following numbers is a prime number?
A.15
B.21
C.29
D.33
Explanation: A prime number has exactly two factors: 1 and itself. 29 can only be divided by 1 and 29. 15 (3×5), 21 (3×7), and 33 (3×11) are composite.
8Which number is a multiple of 8?
A.18
B.28
C.40
D.52
Explanation: A multiple of 8 is the product of 8 and a whole number. 8 × 5 = 40, so 40 is a multiple of 8.
9Which statement about the number 47 is true?
A.It is composite because it is an odd number.
B.It is prime because its only factors are 1 and 47.
C.It is composite because 7 is one of its factors.
D.It is prime because it is divisible by 3.
Explanation: 47 cannot be divided evenly by 2, 3, 5, or 7. Its only factors are 1 and 47, making it a prime number.
10The first four numbers in a pattern are 4, 11, 18, 25. What is the rule for this pattern, and what is the next number?
A.Rule: Add 6; Next number: 31
B.Rule: Add 7; Next number: 32
C.Rule: Add 7; Next number: 33
D.Rule: Multiply by 2; Next number: 50
Explanation: The difference between consecutive terms is 7 (11-4=7, 18-11=7, 25-18=7). The rule is Add 7. The next number is 25 + 7 = 32.

About the SC READY Math Grade 4 Exam

The SC READY Mathematics Grade 4 assessment measures 4th grade students' mastery of South Carolina College- and Career-Readiness Standards for Mathematics. The test evaluates standard mastery across Operations & Algebraic Thinking, Base Ten Operations, Fraction & Decimal Concepts, Measurement & Data, and Geometry.

Assessment

Fifty operational items assessing the 2025 South Carolina College- and Career-Ready Mathematics Standards: Data, Probability, and Statistical Reasoning 7-9 items; Measurement, Geometry, and Spatial Reasoning 12-15; Numerical Reasoning 12-15; Patterns, Algebra, and Functional Reasoning 15-19. Depth of Knowledge ranges are DOK 1 at 15-40%, DOK 2 at 55-85%, and DOK 3 at 0-10%.

Time Limit

Not timed. SCDE publishes an approximate 60 minutes for grades 3-5 mathematics for scheduling only. For Spring 2026 only, because of an increased number of field-test items, SC READY Mathematics grades 3-5 is administered in two sessions over two days (Math Part A and Math Part B).

Passing Score

No pass mark is set. SC READY results are reported in four performance levels: Does Not Meet Expectations, Approaches Expectations, Meets Expectations, and Exceeds Expectations.
