a.
$$-0.25$$
and
$$\frac{1}{-4}$$
b.
$$-\left ( \frac{1}{4} \right )$$
and
$$\frac{-1}{-4}$$

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

standard_description: Partition circles and rectangles into two and four equal shares, describe the shares using the words halves, fourths, and quarters, and use the phrases half of, fourth of, and quarter of. Describe the whole as two of, or four of the shares. Understand for these examples that decomposing into more equal shares creates smaller shares.
problem_activity: In science class, you measure the mass and volume of different pieces of aluminum. You determine that there is a proportional relationship between mass and volume. The data on four samples of aluminum is shown in the table.
{"table": [{"_attributes": {"align": "center", "class": ["table", "table-bordered"], "style": "table-layout:Fixed; width:50%"}, "tbody": [{"tr": [{"td": [{"_attributes": {"style": "background-color:#eeeeee; text-align:center"}, "strong": [{"span": [{"_attributes": {"class": ["math-tex"]}, "_value": "$$^3$$"}], "_values": ["Volume (cm", ")"]}]}, {"_attributes": {"style": "background-color:#eeeeee; text-align:center"}, "strong": [{"_value": "Mass (g)"}]}]}, {"td": [{"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:center"}, "_value": "4"}, {"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:center"}, "_value": "10.8"}]}, {"td": [{"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:center"}, "_value": "7"}, {"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:center"}, "_value": "18.9"}]}, {"td": [{"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:center"}, "_value": "12"}, {"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:center"}, "_value": "32.4"}]}, {"td": [{"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:center"}, "_value": "18"}, {"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:center"}, "_value": "48.6"}]}]}]}]}
After you put your scale away, you realize that you forgot to find the mass of one more piece of aluminum. The volume of the piece of aluminum is 10 cm
$${^3}$$
. Can you determine the mass without taking your scale back out?
