Example:
Concept/skill: 
Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication and division and of fractions to multiply and divide rational numbers.

Problem/activity:
For each pair of numbers, determine if the values are equivalent. Explain your reasoning for each one.
a.
$$-0.25$$
and
$$\frac{1}{-4}$$
b.
$$-\left ( \frac{1}{4} \right )$$
and
$$\frac{-1}{-4}$$
c.
$$\frac{-1}{4}$$
and
$$-\frac{1}{4}$$


Answer: 
Yes. This problem involves understanding fractions and division to divide rational numbers, such as 1, -4, 4, and -1. This problem also involves an understanding of multiplication: if p and q are integers, then -(p/q) = (-p)/q = p/(-q).

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

problem_activity: Task
A spider walks on the outside of a box from point A to B to C to D and finally to point E as shown in the picture below.
[IMG]
Draw a net of the box and map out the path of the spider on the net.
Compare your net with those of some other people.
Cut out the net and put the box together to see if you are right.
How long is the path of the spider?
