Task
 Arrange the fractions in order from least to greatest. Explain your answer with a picture.
 $\frac{1}{5}, \frac{1}{7}, \frac{1}{3} $
 $\frac{2}{5}, \frac{2}{7}, \frac{2}{3} $
 $\frac{5}{6}, \frac{3}{6}, \frac{1}{6} $
 $\frac{5}{12}, \frac{8}{12}, \frac{4}{12} $

Concept/skill: 
Understand a fraction as a number on the number line; represent fractions on a number line diagram.
 Grade 3 expectations in this domain are limited to fractions with denominators 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8.

Answer: 
No. Completing this task does not involve representing fractions on a number line diagram.

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

standard_description: Draw (freehand, with ruler and protractor, and with technology) geometric shapes with given conditions. Focus on constructing triangles from three measures of angles or sides, noticing when the conditions determine a unique triangle, more than one triangle, or no triangle.
problem_activity: Problem 1
Julia, Keller, and Isreal are volunteer firefighters. On Saturday, the volunteer fire department held its annual coin drop fundraiser at a streetlight. After one hour, Keller had collected $42.50 more than Julia, and Isreal had collected $15 less than Keller. The three firefighters collected $125.95 in total. How much did each person collect?
Problem 2
Your parents are redecorating the dining room and want to place two rectangular pictures, each measuring 25 inches across, on the wall, which measures
$${10 {2\over3}}$$
feet long. They want to place the pictures so that the distance between the pictures and the distances from each picture to the end of the wall are the same, as shown in the diagram below.
[IMG]
Determine the distance each picture should be placed from the ends of the wall. Explain the strategy that you used.
Problem 3
