• Applies multiplicative an error • Uses whole-number • Misinterprets meaning of quantities
relationship • Uses models reasoning • Remainders are not treated
• Sets up proportions and uses • Makes a cross-product • Solves non-proportional correctly
cross-products error situations proportionally • Units inconsistent or absent
• Uses y=kx (either symbolic or • Makes an error in • Misinterprets vocabulary • Errors in equation

• Applies the correct ratio relationship • Rounding error
