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.

standard_description: Multiply or divide to solve word problems involving multiplicative comparison, e.g., by using drawings and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem, distinguishing multiplicative comparison from additive comparison.
problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this warm-up is to elicit observations and questions about some animals and their associated measurements, which will be useful when students create comparison statements in a later activity.

Activity Synthesis
“The numbers tell us how high each of these animals can jump.”
Ask students to decide if each of the following statements is true or false and share their responses and reasoning:
“A rabbit can jump 10 times as high as a dolphin.”
“A dolphin can jump as high as a frog.”
“What other comparison statements can you make about how high these animals can jump?”
30 seconds: think time

“We are going to keep thinking about making comparisons in our first activity today.”
