Concept/skill: 
Fluently multiply multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm.

Problem/activity:
Problem 1
Solve using the standard algorithm. If you get stuck, use an area model and/or the partial products algorithm to help. Then assess the reasonableness of your answer.
a.
$$5,803\times46$$
b.
$$63\times2,116$$
Problem 2
Dunkin' introduced a croissant doughnut in 2014. In the first three months of its debut, they sold 7,870 dozen of them per day. How many croissant doughnuts were sold in the first three months?


Answer: 
Yes. This set of problems involves multi-digit whole numbers because the numbers in each problem are four and two digit integers, and the mathematical calculations involved in both problems focus on multiplication. The first problem explicitly asks the student to solve its subproblems using the standard algorithm.

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

standard_description: Understand the conditional probability of A given B as P(A and B)/P(B), and interpret independence of A and B as saying that the conditional probability of A given B is the same as the probability of A, and the conditional probability of B given A is the same as the probability of B.
problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this True or False is for students to demonstrate strategies and understandings they have for interpreting a fraction as division of the numerator by the denominator and vice versa. These strategies help students deepen their understanding of the relationship between division and fractions where the unknown is the numerator, denominator, or the value of the quotient.
Launch
Display one statement.
“Give me a signal when you know whether the statement is true and can explain how you know.”
1 minute: quiet think time
Activity
Share and record answers and strategy.
Repeat with each statement.
Student Facing
Decide if each statement is true or false. Be prepared to explain your reasoning.
\(5 \div 2 = \frac{5}{2}\)
\(\frac{5}{2} = 5\frac{1}{2}\)
\(\frac{6}{2} = 3\)

Activity Synthesis
Display:
\(5\frac{1}{2}\)
\(\frac{5}{2}\)
“How are these expressions the same? How are they different?” (They both have 5 and 2 in them. They both show halves.
\(5\frac{1}{2}\)
means 5 wholes plus one half and
\(\frac{5}{2}\)
means 5 groups of one half.)
