 Narrative
 The first partner spins to get a group of coins. They write a question that compares the amount they spun to a different group of coins that they make up.

Answer: 
Yes. In this activity, students write word problems that compare coin amounts.

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

standard_description: Understand that the three digits of a three-digit number represent amounts of hundreds, tens, and ones; e.g., 706 equals 7 hundreds, 0 tens, and 6 ones. Understand the following as special cases:
- 100 can be thought of as a bundle of ten tens — called a “hundred.”
- The numbers 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900 refer to one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, or nine hundreds (and 0 tens and 0 ones).
problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of an Estimation Exploration is to practice the skill of making a reasonable estimate based on experience and known information. When students notice that they can make a more accurate estimate when the single cubes are grouped into 10s they make use of base-ten structure (MP7).

Record an estimate that is:

Activity Synthesis
“Did anyone change their original ‘about right’ estimate? Why did you change it?” (I changed it because I see there are at least 50 cubes in the 5 towers.)
“Let’s look at our revised estimates. Why were our estimates more accurate the second time?” (Some of the cubes are organized.)
“There are 76 cubes.”
