Example:
Concept/skill: 
Explain equivalence of fractions in special cases, and compare fractions by reasoning about their size.
 Grade 3 expectations in this domain are limited to fractions with denominators 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8.

Problem/activity:
Task
 Arrange the fractions in order from least to greatest. Explain your answer with a picture.
 $\frac{1}{5}, \frac{1}{7}, \frac{1}{3} $
 $\frac{2}{5}, \frac{2}{7}, \frac{2}{3} $
 $\frac{5}{6}, \frac{3}{6}, \frac{1}{6} $
 $\frac{5}{12}, \frac{8}{12}, \frac{4}{12} $

Answer: 
Yes. By arranging the fractions in this problem, students learn to compare fractions by reasoning about their size.

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

standard_description: Solve real world problems involving multiplication of fractions and mixed numbers, e.g., by using visual fraction models or equations to represent the problem.
problem_activity: A cube has
$$6$$
equal sides, each with an area of
$${s^2}$$
square units. The surface area of a cube is the total area of all six sides, and is represented by the formula
$$S=6{s^2}$$
.
Find the surface area of a cube with the side lengths below.
a.
$${s=3}$$
inches
b.
$${s=1.2}$$
cm
