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
$$-\frac{1}{4}$$


Description: 
Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication and division and of fractions to multiply and divide rational numbers.

Answer: 
Yes. This problem involves understanding fractions and division to divide rational numbers, such as 1, -4, 4, and -1. This problem also involves an understanding of multiplication: if p and q are integers, then -(p/q) = (-p)/q = p/(-q).

Now, assess whether the following problem or activity aligns with the provided description.

standard_description: Find whole-number quotients and remainders with up to four-digit dividends and one-digit divisors, using strategies based on place value, the properties of operations, and/or the relationship between multiplication and division. Illustrate and explain the calculation by using equations, rectangular arrays, and/or area models.
Grade 4 expectations in this domain are limited to whole numbers less than or equal to 1,000,000.
problem_activity: Stage 3: Eighth Inches, Add and Subtract
Required Preparation
Materials to Gather
Objects of various lengths
Rulers (inches)
Materials to Copy
Blackline Masters
Creating Line Plots Stage 3 Recording Sheet

Narrative
Students measure up to eight objects to the nearest
\(\frac{1}{8}\)
inch. They work with a partner to create a line plot to represent their measurement data. Then, they ask their partner two questions that can be answered based on the data in their line plot that uses addition or subtraction.
Variation:
If students completed the Estimate and Measure Center, they may choose to use their length measurements to represent on the line plot.
Additional Information
Gather or identify objects of various lengths (pencils, markers, books, glue, scissors, shoe, tape dispenser, side of desk, length of bulletin board).
