Task
 Arrange the fractions in order from least to greatest. Explain your answer with a picture.
 $\frac{1}{5}, \frac{1}{7}, \frac{1}{3} $
 $\frac{2}{5}, \frac{2}{7}, \frac{2}{3} $
 $\frac{5}{6}, \frac{3}{6}, \frac{1}{6} $
 $\frac{5}{12}, \frac{8}{12}, \frac{4}{12} $

Description: 
Understand a fraction as a number on the number line; represent fractions on a number line diagram.
 Grade 3 expectations in this domain are limited to fractions with denominators 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8.

Answer: 
No. Completing this task does not involve representing fractions on a number line diagram.

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

standard_description: Solve multi-step real-life and mathematical problems posed with positive and negative rational numbers in any form (whole numbers, fractions, and decimals), using tools strategically. Apply properties of operations to calculate with numbers in any form; convert between forms as appropriate; and assess the reasonableness of answers using mental computation and estimation strategies. For example: If a woman making $25 an hour gets a 10% raise, she will make an additional 1/10 of her salary an hour, or $2.50, for a new salary of $27.50. If you want to place a towel bar 9 3/4 inches long in the center of a door that is 27 1/2 inches wide, you will need to place the bar about 9 inches from each edge; this estimate can be used as a check on the exact computation.
problem_activity: Problem 1
Read each situation below and then answer the questions that follow.
Situation A:
In the spring, an animal shelter had 216 animals. By the end of the summer, this number decreased by 8%. How many animals were at the shelter at the end of summer?
Situation B:
After advertising for adoptions on local television, an animal shelter decreased the number of animals at the shelter by 8%. There are now 216 animals. How many animals were at the shelter before the advertising?
a.   Sketch a visual diagram to represent each situation.
b.   How are the two situations similar?
c.   How are the two situations different?
Problem 2
A store sells backpacks in two sizes: small and large. The large backpacks sell for 20% more than the smaller backpacks. If a large backpack costs $75, how much does the small size cost?
Draw a visual representation of the situation, and then use an equation to solve.
