Example:
Concept/skill: 
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.

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

Problem 2
A student wrote two repeating decimals as fractions using the strategy shown below.
| Given the decimal                       $$0.\overline{12}$$                       Let                       $$x=0.\overline{12}$$                       Then                         $$100x=12.\overline{12}$$              |https://d37su8u1z9ynie.cloudfront.net/uploads/2019/02/06/math8_u7_l5_ap2a.PNG|  |https://d37su8u1z9ynie.cloudfront.net/uploads/2019/02/06/math8_u7_l5_ap2a.PNG| image:: https://d37su8u1z9ynie.cloudfront.net/uploads/2019/02/06/math8_u7_l5_ap2a.PNG | Given the decimal                       $$0.\overline{123}$$                       Let                       $$x=0.\overline{123}$$                       Then                       $$1000x=123.\overline{123}$$             |https://d37su8u1z9ynie.cloudfront.net/uploads/2019/02/06/math8_u7_l5_ap2b.PNG|  |https://d37su8u1z9ynie.cloudfront.net/uploads/2019/02/06/math8_u7_l5_ap2b.PNG| image:: https://d37su8u1z9ynie.cloudfront.net/uploads/2019/02/06/math8_u7_l5_ap2b.PNG |
