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 add and subtract multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm.
Grade 4 expectations in this domain are limited to whole numbers less than or equal to 1,000,000.

Answer: 
No. This set of problems does not directly involve adding or subtracting multi-digit whole numbers. Instead, it focuses on multiplying multi-digit whole numbers.

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

standard_description: Fluently add, subtract, multiply, and divide multi-digit decimals using the standard algorithm for each operation.
problem_activity: Problem 1
Bobbie is a sixth grader who competes in the 100-meter hurdles. In eight track meets during the season, she recorded the following times (to the nearest one hundredth of a second).
18.11    31.23    17.99    18.25    17.50    35.55    17.44    17.85
a.   What is the mean of Bobbie’s times for these track meets? What does the mean tell you in terms of the context?
b.   What is the median of Bobbie’s times? What does the median tell you in terms of the context?
c.   Explain why the mean is higher than the median.
d.   Which measure of center do you think best represents Bobbie’s 100-meter hurdle time? Explain your reasoning.
e.   The two times that were over 30 seconds were times when Bobbie fell on a hurdle. She decides to take those times out to get a sense of her typical time without falling. What is the new mean? The new median? How do those compare to the original mean and median?
Problem 2
At the University of North Carolina (UNC) in the mid-1980's, the average starting salary for a Geography major was over $100,000 (equivalent to almost $300,000 today).
At that same time, basketball star Michael Jordan was drafted into the NBA with one of the highest salaries in the league. He had just graduated from UNC with a degree in Geography.
a.   Explain why the mean is a misleading measure of center to represent the salary of geography students at UNC.
b.   What measure of center would better represent the salary of geography students at UNC? Explain your reasoning.
Problem 3
The data set below represents the morning commute time of eight colleagues in an office on the same day. The mean of the data set is 32.5 minutes and the median is 38 minutes.
45           32           38           20           5           40           38           42
There was a typo in the data set, and the input “5” was supposed to be “50.” The typo is corrected and the correct mean and median are found.
Without calculating, explain what impact the typo had on the mean and the median.
