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

standard_description: Partition a rectangle into rows and columns of same-size squares and count to find the total number of them.
problem_activity: Problem 1
At the candy store, M&Ms and Skittles are sold for $0.50 per ounce. Kevita puts some M&Ms in a bag and then adds 8 ounces of Skittles. The total cost for her bag of candy is $6.50.
Kevita and Mary write the equation
$${0.5(x+8)=6.50}$$
to represent the situation, where
$$x$$
represents the number of ounces of M&Ms.
Kevita says that to solve this equation, you first distribute the
$$0.5$$
through the parentheses to get
$${0.5x+4=6.50}$$
.
Mary says that to solve this equation, you first divide by
$$0.5$$
on both sides to get
$${x+8=13}$$
.
Do you agree with either Kevita or Mary? Why? Finish solving the problem to find out how many ounces of M&Ms Kevita put in her bag of candy.
Problem 2
The taxi fare in Gotham City is $2.40 for the first
$${1 \over 2}$$
mile and additional mileage is charged at the rate of $0.20 for each additional 0.1 mile. You plan to give the driver a $2 tip. How many miles can you ride for $10?
What are two different ways you can solve this problem?
Problem 3
The ages of three cousins are consecutive integers. The sum of their ages is 45. Calculate their ages.
a.   Draw a tape diagram to represent the ages of the cousins.
b.   Let the youngest cousin's age be represented as
$$x$$
years old. Write and solve an equation to find the ages of the cousins.
