Concept/skill: 
Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and mathematical problems, e.g., by reasoning about tables of equivalent ratios, tape diagrams, double number line diagrams, or equations.

Problem/activity:
You’re mixing ingredients for cookies. The recipe says to combine 6 tablespoons, or ¾ stick, of butter with 1 cup of sugar. You accidentally mix in a whole stick of butter (8 tablespoons) with the cup of sugar. How can you fix this?


Answer: 
Yes. This problem solves a real-world problem involving mixing ingredients for cookies. A student doing this problem would need to reason about equivalent ratios of butter amounts to sugar amounts.

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

standard_description: Measure and estimate liquid volumes and masses of objects using standard units of grams (g), kilograms (kg), and liters (l). (Excludes compound units such as cm^(3) and finding the geometric volume of a container.) Add, subtract, multiply, or divide to solve one-step word problems involving masses or volumes that are given in the same units, e.g., by using drawings (such as a beaker with a measurement scale) to represent the problem. [Excludes multiplicative comparison problems (problems involving notions of “times as much”)]
problem_activity: Problem 1
Which of the rectangles on

has the greatest area? Show or explain your thinking.
Problem 2
Area is measured in
square units
. We can cover a shape with unit squares, then count the number of squares that make up a shape to find its area. For example, if a shape is covered by 12 unit squares, it has an area of 12 square units.
a.   Use square tiles to find the area, in square units, of the rectangles in Anchor Task #1.
b.   Build a rectangle with an area of 15 square units.
Problem 3
a.   Use square tiles to find the area of Figures i and ii on
Template: Tile to Find Area
.
b.   Naiche says that figure (ii) has an area of 18 square units because he covered it with 18 square tiles, as shown below.
