Plotting, Ordering, and Comparing Rational and Irrational Numbers: Sample FAST Questions

Ordering and comparing numbers gets harder in 8th grade because the sets now mix fractions, decimals, square roots, and cube roots. Students plot these values on a number line, order them from least to greatest, and compare them using <, >, and =.

How the FAST tests this benchmark

FAST items include graphic response questions where students plot a value on a number line, multiple choice comparisons, and ordering items whose answer set mixes forms on purpose. Converting everything to decimals on the calculator first is the reliable move.

Skills students need

  • Plot rational and irrational numbers on a number line
  • Order sets that mix fractions, decimals, and radicals
  • Compare rational and irrational numbers using <, >, and =
  • Convert between forms to make a comparison
