Problem/activity:
You’re mixing ingredients for cookies. The recipe says to combine 6 tablespoons, or ¾ stick, of butter with 1 cup of sugar. You accidentally mix in a whole stick of butter (8 tablespoons) with the cup of sugar. How can you fix this?


Description: 
Recognize and represent proportional relationships between quantities.

Answer: 
No. Usually problems that teach recognizing and representing proportional relationships between quantities involve deciding whether two quantities are in a proportional relationship or identifying the constant of proportionality, and then representing proportional relationships by equations or explaining proportional relationship using coordinate graphs.

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

standard_description: Represent three-dimensional figures using nets made up of rectangles and triangles, and use the nets to find the surface area of these figures. Apply these techniques in the context of solving real-world and mathematical problems.
problem_activity: Warm-up
This warm-up reviews the volume work students had done previously to prepare for the work in this lesson. It reinforces the idea of using unit cubes and fractional-unit cubes as a way to measure the volume of a rectangular prism.
Launch
Give students 2–3 minutes of quiet work time. Follow with a class discussion.
Student Facing
How many cubes with an edge length of 1 inch fill this box?
[IMG]
If the cubes had an edge length of 2 inches, would you need more or fewer cubes to fill the box? Explain your reasoning.
If the cubes had an edge length of
\(\frac 12\)
inch, would you need more or fewer cubes to fill the box? Explain your reasoning.

Activity Synthesis
Select several students to share their responses and reasoning. After each person explains, ask students to indicate whether they agree. To involve more students in the discussion, consider asking:
“Who can restate ___’s reasoning in a different way?”
“Does anyone want to add on to _____’s reasoning?”
“Do you agree or disagree with the reasoning? Why?”
Tell students that they will use their understanding of the volume of rectangular prisms to solve other geometric problems.
