Example 1:
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: 
Recognize and represent proportional relationships between quantities.

Answer: 
No. Usually problems that teach recognizing and representing proportional relationships between quantities involve deciding whether two quantities are in a proportional relationship or identifying the constant of proportionality, and then representing proportional relationships by equations or explaining proportional relationship using coordinate graphs.

Example 2:
Problem/activity:
For each pair of numbers, determine if the values are equivalent. Explain your reasoning for each one.
a.
$$-0.25$$
and
$$\frac{1}{-4}$$
b.
$$-\left ( \frac{1}{4} \right )$$
and
$$\frac{-1}{-4}$$
c.
$$\frac{-1}{4}$$
and
$$-\frac{1}{4}$$


Description: 
Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication and division and of fractions to multiply and divide rational numbers.

Answer: 
Yes. This problem involves understanding fractions and division to divide rational numbers, such as 1, -4, 4, and -1. This problem also involves an understanding of multiplication: if p and q are integers, then -(p/q) = (-p)/q = p/(-q).

Problem 2
Kim has a small container and a large container as shown.
[IMG]
It takes 16 of the small containers to fill the large container. Three small containers leave 1.95 gallons of space in the big container.
What is the size of each of the two containers?


Description: 
Analyze and solve pairs of simultaneous linear equations.

Answer: 
Yes. The last three rows of the table in the first problem involves solving pairs of simultaneous linear equations. The second word problem can also be represented as two simultaneous linear equations.

standard_description: Recognize that in a multi-digit number, a digit in one place represents 10 times as much as it represents in the place to its right and 1/10 of what it represents in the place to its left.
problem_activity: Problem 1
a.   Shani calculated
$$81\div3$$
using an area model by finding the length of a rectangle whose area is 81 square units and width is 3 units.
[IMG]
The value being divided has 8 tens. The area model has only 6 tens in the leftmost region. Why?
Where did the 21 ones come from in the area model?
b.   Albie calculated
$$81\div3$$
using a method that was different from Shani’s.
[IMG]
Albie subtracted 60 from 81. What does the 60 represent?
Albie wrote 7 above the 20, and then subtracted 21 from 21. How is the 21 related to the 7?
What do the numbers 20 and 7 represent?
c.   Kimiko has a method of calculating quotients that is different from Shani’s method and Albie’s method. Here is how she found the quotient
$$81\div3$$
.
[IMG]
How is Kimiko’s method similar to and different from Shani’s method and Albie’s method?
Kimiko subtracted
$$3\times2$$
, then
$$3\times7$$
. Earlier, Albie subtracted
$$3\times20$$
, then
$$3\times7$$
. Why did they have the same quotient?
Why do you think Kimiko wrote 1 next to the remainder of 2 rather than adding 1 and 2 to get 3?
Problem 2
Estimate each quotient, then solve using any method. Then assess the reasonableness of your answer.
a.
$$97 \div2$$
b.
$$1,216\div4$$
c.
$$4,309\div7$$
