Question 1 · Grade 7 Math · Standard 7.RP.A.2
A jazz musician on Bourbon Street earns $126 in tips over 3 hours. At this rate, how much would she earn in a 5-hour set?
- A.$180
- B.$200
- C.$210
- D.$240
Show the answer and explanation
Answer: C. $210
Rate: $126/3 = $42/hr. In 5 hours: 5 × $42 = $210.
Question 2 · Grade 7 Math · Standard 7.G.B.6
A cylindrical water tank on a Louisiana farm has a radius of 7 feet and a height of 10 feet. What is the volume? (Use π ≈ 22/7)
- A.440 cu ft
- B.1,540 cu ft
- C.3,080 cu ft
- D.6,160 cu ft
Show the answer and explanation
Answer: B. 1,540 cu ft
V = πr²h = 22/7 × 49 × 10 = 1,540 cu ft.
Question 3 · Grade 7 Math · Standard 7.EE.B.4

About the LEAP 2025 Grade 7 Math Test
Seventh grade continues the middle-grades LEAP progression, with proportional reasoning as the through-line and operations with rational numbers (including negatives) underpinning everything. The scoring frame holds: "Mastery" is the on-grade-level target, "Basic" is below it, and statewide only about a third of Louisiana students in grades 3-8 reach Mastery in math.
The test measures the Louisiana Student Standards, organized into Major Content and Additional & Supporting Content with reasoning tasks. Proportional relationships and percent problems are the heaviest content, and probability is introduced.
Statewide in 2026, 34% of Louisiana students (grades 3-8) reached Mastery or above in math.
LEAP is given online. As at grade 6, NO calculator on Session 1, a four-function calculator on Sessions 2 and 3; a math reference sheet is provided.
Mastery + Advanced = on grade level. 'Basic' is BELOW Mastery. LDOE's headline figure is by subject across grades 3-8.

What's On The LEAP 2025 Grade 7 Math Test
Grade 7 math on LEAP is reported in three categories. LDOE's grade 7 assessment guide gives the points: Major Content 27, Additional & Supporting Content 9, and Mathematical Reasoning & Modeling 19, out of 55.
| Reporting Category | What's Tested |
|---|---|
| Major Content (27 of 55 points) | Proportional relationships, unit rates, and percent problems (tax, tip, discount, interest), operations with rational numbers including negatives, and two-step equations and inequalities. The core of grade 7. |
| Additional & Supporting Content (9 of 55 points) | Scale drawings, circles (area and circumference), angle relationships, surface area and volume, sampling, and probability of simple and compound events. |
| Mathematical Reasoning & Modeling (19 of 55 points) | Type II and Type III tasks: explaining and justifying answers, critiquing reasoning, and modeling real-world problems — a LEAP emphasis. |
Test Format — What Your Child Will See
- ●Proportional reasoning is the through-line of grade 7; probability is introduced.
- ●Four-function calculator on Sessions 2-3; Session 1 is calculator-free.
- ●"Mastery" is the target; "Basic" is below it.
What Louisiana Parents Should Know About Grade 7 Math
- 1
Make proportional reasoning second nature — proportions, unit rates, and percents are the heaviest grade-7 content.
- 2
Nail operations with negative numbers — errors here cascade into everything else.
- 3
Don't skip probability — a self-contained topic where focused practice picks up points.
- 4
Aim for Mastery; know 'Basic' is below grade level. Practice with and without a calculator (Session 1 vs. 2-3).
