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.
Who is right? Draw a picture to help you explain your answer.


Description: 
Explain why a fraction a/b is equivalent to a fraction (n × a)/(n × b) by using visual fraction models, with attention to how the number and size of the parts differ even though the two fractions themselves are the same size. Use this principle to recognize and generate equivalent fractions.
Grade 4 expectations in this domain are limited to fractions with denominators 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 100.

Answer: 
Yes. This task asks students to compare two fractions that are equal. The students need to explain why the two fractions are equal by drawing a picture, which involves using visual fraction models.

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

problem_activity: Task
Pablo is practicing bank shots on a standard 4 ft.-by-8 ft. pool table that has a wall on each side, a pocket in each corner, and a pocket at the midpoint of each eight-foot side.
Pablo places the cue ball one foot away from the south wall of the table and one foot away from the west wall, as shown in the diagram below.  He wants to bank the cue ball off of the east wall and into the pocket at the midpoint of the north wall.

At what point should the cue ball hit the east wall?
After Pablo practices banking the cue ball off of the east wall, he tries placing the eight-ball two feet from the east wall, as shown in the diagram below, so that if he shoots the cue ball exactly as he did before, the cue ball will strike the eight-ball directly and sink the eight-ball into the north pocket.  How far from the north wall should Pablo place the eight-ball?
