Concept/skill: 
Recognize and represent proportional relationships between quantities.

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: 
No. Usually problems that teach recognizing and representing proportional relationships between quantities involve deciding whether two quantities are in a proportional relationship or identifying the constant of proportionality, and then representing proportional relationships by equations or explaining proportional relationship using coordinate graphs.

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

standard_description: Explain why the sum or product of two rational numbers is rational; that the sum of a rational number and an irrational number is irrational; and that the product of a nonzero rational number and an irrational number is irrational.
problem_activity: Task
Explain why the sum and product of two rational numbers is always a rational number.
Kaylee says
I know that $\pi$ is an irrational number so its decimal never repeats. I also know that $\frac{1}{7}$ is a rational number so its decimal repeats. But I don't know how to add or multiply these decimals so I am not sure if $\pi + \frac{1}{7}$ and $ \pi \times \frac{1}{7}$ are rational or irrational.
Using part (a), help Kaylee decide whether or not $\pi + \frac{1}{7}$ and $\pi \times \frac{1}{7}$ are rational or irrational.
