How to solve Grade 5 coordinate plane problems

Real problems from these worksheets, solved one step at a time — the same explanations your child sees when practicing online.

  1. Example 1

    0112233445566778899xyABCD

    Plot (8, 4). Which letter marks that spot?

    1. Start at the origin, (0, 0), where the two axes meet.
    2. The first number, x, is 8: move 8 units to the right along the x-axis.
    3. The second number, y, is 4: move 4 units up.
    4. Careful: point B is at (4, 8) — the numbers swapped (right 4, up 8).
    5. You land on point A, so (8, 4) is point A.

    Answer: A

  2. Example 2

    112233445566778899

    What are the coordinates of the point on the grid? (x, y)

    1. Start at the origin, (0, 0), where the x-axis and y-axis cross.
    2. Count across along the x-axis: the point is 7 units to the right, so x = 7.
    3. Now count up: the point is 9 units up, so y = 9.
    4. Write x first, then y: the point is (7, 9).

    Answer: (7, 9)

  3. Example 3

    1122334455667788

    What are the coordinates of the point on the grid? (x, y)

    1. Start at the origin, (0, 0), where the x-axis and y-axis cross.
    2. Count across along the x-axis: the point is 1 unit to the right, so x = 1.
    3. Now count up: the point is 8 units up, so y = 8.
    4. Write x first, then y: the point is (1, 8).

    Answer: (1, 8)
