Concept/skill: 
Fluently add and subtract multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm.
Grade 4 expectations in this domain are limited to whole numbers less than or equal to 1,000,000.

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: 
No. This set of problems does not directly involve adding or subtracting multi-digit whole numbers. Instead, it focuses on multiplying multi-digit whole numbers.

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

standard_description: Represent addition, subtraction, multiplication, and conjugation of complex numbers geometrically on the complex plane; use properties of this representation for computation. For example, (-1 + Ö3i)^(3) = 8 because (-1 + Ö3i) has modulus 2 and argument 120°.
problem_activity: Problem 1
Flares are used to warn cars that there is an obstacle on the road. Flares are often part of cars’ emergency kits and burn for a long time.
Fred’s Flare Company used to make flares that burned for 100 minutes on average. Fred changed the chemical formula in his flares, and he thinks that his new formula will burn for slightly over 120 minutes. Fred wants to make the claim on his packaging that his flares “Now burn for over 2 hours on average!!”
To make this claim, Fred needs to back it up with data. He decides that performing some random sampling is the best way to do this. Since he runs a 24-hour production operation, he decides that taking a sample each hour is the easiest way to do this.
Fred has tried two different ways of sampling, as shown below.
| Sample size: 20 flares                      24 total samples (one per hour of production)            |https://d37su8u1z9ynie.cloudfront.net/uploads/2018/06/05/algiiu8_l12_at1.png|  |https://d37su8u1z9ynie.cloudfront.net/uploads/2018/06/05/algiiu8_l12_at1.png| image:: https://d37su8u1z9ynie.cloudfront.net/uploads/2018/06/05/algiiu8_l12_at1.png | Sample size: 100 flares                      24 total samples (one per hour of production)            |https://d37su8u1z9ynie.cloudfront.net/uploads/2018/06/05/algiiu8_l12_at1a.png|  |https://d37su8u1z9ynie.cloudfront.net/uploads/2018/06/05/algiiu8_l12_at1a.png| image:: https://d37su8u1z9ynie.cloudfront.net/uploads/2018/06/05/algiiu8_l12_at1a.png |

If we further extrapolate that Fred continues to take samples for 30 days in the same manner as above, he charts his results in histograms shown below.

The margin of error is the largest expected difference between the estimate of a population parameter and the actual population parameter.
What would you guess is the mean and the margin of error of burn time of Fred’s flares (with the new and improved formula)?
Problem 2
The margin of error can also be calculated in by
$${ME=2\sqrt{{\hat{p}}(1-{\hat{p}})\over n}}$$
, where
$${\hat{p}}$$
is the proportion of a sample of an event occurring,
$$1-{\hat{p}}$$
is the proportion of a sample of an event not occurring,
$$n$$
is the sample size, and
$${\sigma}$$
is the sample standard deviation.
Suppose you draw a random sample of 36 chips from a mystery bag and find 20 red chips. Find:
The sample proportion of red chips
The standard error (standard deviation from the mean)
The margin of error
