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: Use measures of center and measures of variability for numerical data from random samples to draw informal comparative inferences about two populations. For example, decide whether the words in a chapter of a seventh-grade science book are generally longer than the words in a chapter of a fourth-grade science book.
problem_activity: Problem 1
Below is a normal distribution that shows the height of 8-year-old boys in inches. The relative frequency of each height is shown along the
$${y-}$$
axis, and the height, in inches, is shown along the
$${x-}$$
axis.
The mean is 50 and the standard deviation is 2.

Estimate the percent of 8-year-old boys chosen randomly who will be shorter than 53 inches.
Problem 2
The mean combined score for last year’s SAT was 1083 with a standard deviation of 193. The mean and the standard deviation are based on students who took the SAT across the nation.
If you took the SAT and scored a combined score of 1100, what percent of students who took the SAT scored below you?
