Task
Cruz and Erica were both getting ready for soccer.
Cruz ran 1 lap around the school.
Erica ran 3 laps around the playground.
Erica said,
I ran more laps, so I ran farther.
Cruz said,
4 laps around the school is 1 mile, but it takes 12 laps around the playground to go 1 mile. My laps are much longer, so I ran farther.

Description: 
Compare two decimals to hundredths by reasoning about their size. Recognize that comparisons are valid only when the two decimals refer to the same whole. Record the results of comparisons with the symbols >, =, or <, and justify the conclusions, e.g., by using a visual model.
Grade 4 expectations in this domain are limited to fractions with denominators 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 100.

Answer: 
No. This task does not involve comparing decimals to hundredths. Instead, it involves fraction comparisons.

problem_activity: Narrative
In this activity, students encounter another type of elapsed-time problem in which the start and end times are given but the elapsed time is not. Students consider possible strategies they saw earlier that could be used to find elapsed time. Although they are not required to solve the problem, students may choose to do so as they think about ways to reason abstractly and quantitatively about the solution (MP2).
Launch
Groups of 2
Read the problem as a class.
“How is this problem like the ones we saw earlier?” (They are all about the passing of time and are related to riding the bus. The start time is given in all of them.) “How is this one different?” (The arrival time is given here, and the amount of time that has passed is missing.)

Activity
“How would you solve this problem? Explain which strategies or representations you saw earlier that would be useful for solving a problem like this.”
5–7 minutes: independent work time
Student Facing
Here’s another problem about time:
At 6:32 p.m., Elena got on a bus to go home. She got off the bus at 7:10 p.m. How long was her bus ride?
Which strategy or representation would you use when solving a problem like this? Explain your reasoning.
