Problem/activity:
Problem 1
Solve using the standard algorithm. If you get stuck, use an area model and/or the partial products algorithm to help. Then assess the reasonableness of your answer.
a.
$$5,803\times46$$
b.
$$63\times2,116$$
Problem 2
Dunkin' introduced a croissant doughnut in 2014. In the first three months of its debut, they sold 7,870 dozen of them per day. How many croissant doughnuts were sold in the first three months?


Concept/skill: 
Fluently multiply multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm.

Answer: 
Yes. This set of problems involves multi-digit whole numbers because the numbers in each problem are four and two digit integers, and the mathematical calculations involved in both problems focus on multiplication. The first problem explicitly asks the student to solve its subproblems using the standard algorithm.

Now, does the problem or activity shown below enable students to learn the full intent of the following concept or skill?

standard_description: Write arithmetic and geometric sequences both recursively and with an explicit formula, use them to model situations, and translate between the two forms.
problem_activity: Task
In a carefully controlled biology lab, a population of 100 bacteria reproduces via binary fission. That is, every hour, on the hour, each bacteria splits into two bacteria. Assuming no bacteria deaths, find an expression for the number $P(t)$ of bacteria in the population after $t$ hours.
In the next lab over, a population of protists reproduces hourly according to multiple fission. The function which gives the population of protists after $t$ hours is $$P(t)=50\cdot 3^t.$$ Interpret the significance of the numbers 50 and 3 in the context of the biological experiment.
