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.

Concept/skill: 
Compare two decimals to hundredths by reasoning about their size. Recognize that comparisons are valid only when the two decimals refer to the same whole. Record the results of comparisons with the symbols >, =, or <, and justify the conclusions, e.g., by using a visual model.
Grade 4 expectations in this domain are limited to fractions with denominators 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 100.

Answer: 
No. This task does not involve comparing decimals to hundredths. Instead, it involves fraction comparisons.

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

standard_description: Find the greatest common factor of two whole numbers less than or equal to 100 and the least common multiple of two whole numbers less than or equal to 12. Use the distributive property to express a sum of two whole numbers 1–100 with a common factor as a multiple of a sum of two whole numbers with no common factor. For example, express 36 + 8 as 4 (9 + 2).
problem_activity: Provide a written explanation for each question below.
a.   Is it true that
$${\left(1000^{1\over3}\right)^3=(1000^3)^{1\over3}}$$
? Explain or show how you know.
b.   Is it true that
$${\left(4^{1\over2}\right)^3=(4^3)^{1\over2}}$$
? Explain or show how you know.
c.   Suppose that
$$m$$
and
$$n$$
are positive integers and
$$b$$
is a real number so that the principal
$$n^{th}$$
root of
$$b$$
exists. In general, does
$$\left(b^{1\over n}\right)^m=(b^m)^{1\over n}$$
? Explain or show how you know.
