What this review measures

Eighth-grade algebra depends on more than equation steps. Students need signed-number fluency, proportional reasoning, and the ability to translate between tables, diagrams, equations, and verbal situations. This expanded packet gives each prerequisite meaningful space and uses visual models where the diagram is part of the mathematics.

For parents and educators

Have the student mark each answer C (confident), U (unsure), or G (guessed). Those labels often reveal more than the raw score and help choose what to review next.

Every question below appears in the printable packet. Students should show their work and simplify answers unless directed otherwise.

Rational numbers

Compute accurately with positive and negative fractions and decimals.

  1. 1Find -14 + 5.6.
  2. 2Find (-3/5)(25/9).
  3. 3Find -4.2 / 0.7 + 9.
  4. 4Find -3 1/2 + 1 3/4.
  5. 5Order from least to greatest: -1.8, -7/4, 0.2, -2.

Proportions and scale

Solve proportions and interpret scale drawings.

  2. 7On a map, 1.5 cm represents 12 km. How far does 6 cm represent?
  3. 8Determine whether the relationship in the table is proportional. State the constant of proportionality.
    xy
    27
    517.5
    828

  5. 15A student estimated a length as 26 cm. The actual length is 25 cm. Find the percent error.

Expressions and equations

Use properties, solve multi-step equations, and interpret solutions.

  1. 16Simplify 4(2x - 3) - 5x.
  2. 17Solve 5x - 7 = 2x + 20.
  3. 18Solve -3(x + 4) = 18.
  4. 19Factor 18x + 30 using the greatest common factor.
  5. 20Solve 3(x - 2) + 4 = 19.
  6. 21Solve x/3 + 5/2 = 9/2.

  7. 28Points P and Q are shown. Find the vertical distance between them.PQ
  8. 29Find the surface area of the rectangular prism.423

Probability and data

Use probability models and compare distributions.

  4. 33A number cube is rolled 120 times and lands on 5 a total of 18 times. Find the experimental probability of rolling a 5.
  5. 34The data are 4, 7, 7, 8, 9, and 13. Find the median and range.

Word problems

Build and solve equations from rates and constraints.
