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, assess whether the following problem or activity is 'aligned' with the given Common Core standard in Mathematics.

standard_description: Add and subtract fractions with unlike denominators (including mixed numbers) by replacing given fractions with equivalent fractions in such a way as to produce an equivalent sum or difference of fractions with like denominators. For example, 2/3 + 5/4 = 8/12 + 15/12 = 23/12. (In general, a/b + c/d = (ad + bc)/bd.)
problem_activity: Problem 1
a.   A construction worker is tiling a backsplash. The backsplash is
$${4{{{1\over2}}}}$$
tiles long and
$${{1\over2}}$$
tile tall. How many tiles are needed in total for the whole backsplash? Give an exact answer that includes the fractions of a tile she will need.
b.   A runway measures
$${10{1\over3}}$$
yards long and
$${{3\over4}}$$
yards wide. What is the area, in square yards, of the runway?
Problem 2
a.   Kendra is making
$${{1\over2}}$$
of a recipe. The full recipe calls for
$${3 {1\over4}}$$
cups of flour. How many cups of flour should Kendra use?
b.   Claire walked
$${2{2\over5}}$$
miles. Jason walked
$${{2\over3}}$$
as far as Claire. How many miles did Jason walk?
Problem 3
Solve. Show or explain your work.
a.
$${{2\over3} \times 4{1\over4}}$$
b.
$${3{2\over5} \times {1\over2}}$$
c.
$${{5\over4} \times 3{1\over3}}$$
