How to use these grade 8 math worksheets
Pick a chapter, read its one-page lesson, then solve the worksheet on paper and check every answer with the solutions page. Take the ten-question quiz to see what is still unclear, and finish with the timed test. Every page can be printed from its PDF button, and the quick practice at the bottom of each page gives ten new questions at every visit.
8th Grade math: common questions
What is taught in 8th grade math?
The core of 8th grade math is linear relationships: slope, solving linear equations and systems, and functions, together with the Pythagorean Theorem, transformations and bivariate data.
Is 8th grade math the same as Algebra 1?
No. 8th grade math prepares Algebra 1: it introduces functions and systems of equations, while Algebra 1 adds quadratics, exponential functions and polynomials.
Are the solutions step by step?
Yes. Each worksheet exercise and each test question has a worked solution showing every step and the final answer in bold.
Which standards are covered?
All Common Core grade 8 standards: The Number System, Expressions and Equations, Functions, Geometry, and Statistics and Probability.
