Task
Cruz and Erica were both getting ready for soccer.
Cruz ran 1 lap around the school.
Erica ran 3 laps around the playground.
Erica said,
I ran more laps, so I ran farther.
Cruz said,
4 laps around the school is 1 mile, but it takes 12 laps around the playground to go 1 mile. My laps are much longer, so I ran farther.
Who is right? Draw a picture to help you explain your answer.


Concept/skill: 
Explain why a fraction a/b is equivalent to a fraction (n × a)/(n × b) by using visual fraction models, with attention to how the number and size of the parts differ even though the two fractions themselves are the same size. Use this principle to recognize and generate equivalent fractions.
Grade 4 expectations in this domain are limited to fractions with denominators 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 100.

Answer: 
Yes. This task asks students to compare two fractions that are equal. The students need to explain why the two fractions are equal by drawing a picture, which involves using visual fraction models.

standard_description: Identify when two expressions are equivalent (i.e., when the two expressions name the same number regardless of which value is substituted into them). For example, the expressions y + y + y and 3y are equivalent because they name the same number regardless of which number y stands for.
problem_activity: Stage 8: Add Tenths or Hundredths
Required Preparation

Number cubes
Materials to Copy
Blackline Masters
Target Numbers Stage 8 Recording Sheet

Narrative
Students add hundredths and tenths to get as close to 1 as possible. Students start their first equation with 0 and take turns rolling a number cube and choosing whether to add that number of hundredths or tenths and write an equation. The sum becomes the first number in the next equation. The player who gets closest to 1 in 6 rounds, without going over 1, is the winner.
Additional Information
Each group of 2 needs one number cube.
