    1. A.120
    2. B.130
    3. C.140
    4. D.150
    Show the answer and explanation

About the NC EOG Grade 7 Math Test

Grade 7 math on the NC EOG leans on proportional reasoning (~24-28%, the biggest category) and adds a substantial Statistics & Probability strand (~22-26%). Operations with rational numbers, including negatives, underpin everything, and students solve multi-step equations and inequalities.

North Carolina reports four achievement levels (Not Proficient, Level 3, Level 4, Level 5); "on grade level" is Grade Level Proficient (GLP), Level 3 or above. In 2025-26, 56.1% of NC seventh graders were grade-level proficient in math — a bit more than half.

The EOG has a 15-item calculator-inactive section and a 30-item calculator-active section (scientific calculator), given online via NCTest.

56%% Grade Level Proficient (Grade 7 Math, 2025-26)

Grade Level Proficient (GLP) = Level 3+ = on grade level. Level 4+ = College-and-Career Ready. Scores below Level 3 are reported as Not Proficient.

What's On The NC EOG Grade 7 Math Test

Grade 7 math on the NC EOG is organized into reporting categories from the NC Standard Course of Study, with Ratios & Proportional Relationships and Statistics & Probability leading. The percentage ranges are from NCDPI's published test specifications.

Reporting CategoryWhat's Tested
Ratios & Proportional Relationships (~24-28%)The biggest grade-7 category: proportional relationships, unit rates, and percent problems (tax, tip, discount, interest).
Statistics & Probability (~22-26%)Probability of simple and compound events, and using samples to make inferences — a large strand at grade 7.
Expressions & Equations (~20-24%)Multi-step equations and inequalities and working with algebraic expressions.
Geometry (~16-20%) and The Number System (~8-12%)Circles, scale, surface area and volume; and operations with rational numbers including negatives.

Test Format — What Your Child Will See

Items
45 operational items — 15 calculator-inactive and 30 calculator-active.
Time Limit
NCDPI estimates about two hours (120 minutes) for most students; the maximum is three hours (180 minutes) unless a student has an approved extended-time accommodation.
Sessions
Two sections: a shorter calculator-inactive section, then a larger calculator-active section.
Calculator
No calculator on the 15-item calculator-inactive section; a scientific calculator on the 30-item calculator-active section.
Paper Option
Given online via NCTest; a paper version is available for students with disabilities who need it.
Item types your child will see:
multiple-choicetechnology-enhanced (gridded / numeric response)
  • ●Proportional reasoning is the biggest category; statistics & probability is a large strand at grade 7.
  • ●Calculator-active section (scientific) is 30 of 45 items.
  • ●"On grade level" = Grade Level Proficient (Level 3+).

What North Carolina Parents Should Know About Grade 7 Math

  1. 1

    Make proportional reasoning second nature — the biggest grade-7 category (proportions, unit rates, percents).

  2. 2

    Don't skip statistics & probability — it's a large grade-7 strand where focused practice picks up points.

  3. 3

    Nail operations with negative numbers — errors here cascade into equations.

  4. 4

    Practice by hand and with a scientific calculator to match the two sections.
