Concept/skill: 
Recognize and represent proportional relationships between quantities.

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?


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.

Now, determine whether the following problem or activity can enable students to understand the concepts or skills in the provided description.

standard_description: Represent whole numbers as lengths from 0 on a number line diagram with equally spaced points corresponding to the numbers 0, 1, 2, ..., and represent whole-number sums and differences within 100 on a number line diagram.
problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this activity is for students to learn stage 1 of the Jump the Line center. In this stage, students take turns making strategic choices about numbers to add or subtract to reach target numbers. Students choose 3 target numbers and mark them on the number line. Both players start at the beginning of the number line. They spin all 3 spinners and decide which of the moves they want to use on their turn. Students take turns spinning and moving, trying to land exactly on the target numbers. The first player to land on 2 target numbers wins.
