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: 
Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and mathematical problems, e.g., by reasoning about tables of equivalent ratios, tape diagrams, double number line diagrams, or equations.

Answer: 
Yes. This problem solves a real-world problem involving mixing ingredients for cookies. A student doing this problem would need to reason about equivalent ratios of butter amounts to sugar amounts.

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

standard_description: Use square root and cube root symbols to represent solutions to equations of the form x^(2) = p and x^(3) = p, where p is a positive rational number. Evaluate square roots of small perfect squares and cube roots of small perfect cubes. Know that Ö2 is irrational.
problem_activity: Problem 1
Two students are presented with the challenge of adding
$${2.5\times10^3}$$
and
$${1.3\times10^4}$$
. They have just learned how to multiply numbers in scientific notation, and they try out using similar strategies. They get two possible answers:
$${3.8\times10^4}$$
OR
$${3.8\times10^7}$$
a.   Explain or show to the students how both of the answers are incorrect.
b.   Why will the strategies used when multiplying numbers in scientific notation not work when adding?
c.   What are some strategies that can be used to solve this problem? Find the sum.
Problem 2
The Great Lakes are a series of freshwater lakes located on the US and Canadian border. Lake Superior has the greatest volume of water with
$${3.12\times10^{15}}$$
gallons of water. The smallest lake, by volume of water, is Lake Ontario with
$${4.26\times10^{14}}$$
gallons of water.
How many more gallons of water are in Lake Superior than in Lake Ontario?
Problem 3
A water molecule is made up of 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom, represented as H
2
O. One hydrogen atom has a mass of
$${1.7\times10^{-27}}$$
kg, and one oxygen atom has a mass of
$${2.7\times10^{-26}}$$
kg.
What is the total mass of a single water molecule?
