Concept/skill: 
Use addition and subtraction within 100 to solve one- and two-step word problems involving situations of adding to, taking from, putting together, taking apart, and comparing, with unknowns in all positions, e.g., by using drawings and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem.

 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: 
No. This activity does not involve addition or subtraction, or unknowns in different positions of equations or drawings.

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

standard_description: Use rational approximations of irrational numbers to compare the size of irrational numbers, locate them approximately on a number line diagram, and estimate the value of expressions (e.g., p^(2)). For example, by truncating the decimal expansion of Ö2, show that Ö2 is between 1 and 2, then between 1.4 and 1.5, and explain how to continue on to get better approximations.
problem_activity: Problem 1

$$b$$
are integers, and
$$b\neq0$$
.
a.
$${0.3333}$$
b.
$${-5.05}$$
c.
$${\sqrt{64}}$$
e.
$${\sqrt{4\over25}}$$
f.
$${\sqrt{1.21}}$$
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 |
