Problem/activity:
For each pair of numbers, determine if the values are equivalent. Explain your reasoning for each one.
a.
$$-0.25$$
and
$$\frac{1}{-4}$$
b.
$$-\left ( \frac{1}{4} \right )$$
and
$$\frac{-1}{-4}$$
c.
$$\frac{-1}{4}$$
and
$$-\frac{1}{4}$$


Concept/skill: 
Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication to multiply a fraction or whole number by a fraction.

Answer: 
No. The expressions shown in this problem do not involve multiplying fractions with other fractions, nor whole numbers with fractions.

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

standard_description: Fluently multiply multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm.
problem_activity: Problem 1
a.   How many do you see? How do you see them?

b.   Instead of writing
$$10 \times 10$$
, we can write
$$10^2$$
, which we read “ten to the
power
of two.” The two is the
exponent
and tells us how many times we multiply 10 by itself. How would you represent the number of the smallest spokes in the image above as a power of 10?
Problem 2
a.   Write each of the following as a product of tens and in standard form.
$$10^4$$
$$10^6$$
b.   Write each of the following as a power of 10.
10 × 10 × 10 × 10 × 10
1,000,000,000
Problem 3
a.   Solve.
10 × 10,000 = ______
1,000 × 1,000 = ______
1,000,000 × 100 = ______
b.   How were powers of 10 useful in solving Part (a)?
