Narrative
The first partner spins to get a group of coins. They write a question that compares the amount they spun to a different group of coins that they make up.


Standard options: 
A. Tell and write time from analog and digital clocks to the nearest five minutes, using a.m. and p.m.
B. Solve word problems involving dollar bills, quarters, dimes, nickels, and pennies, using $ and ¢ symbols appropriately. Example: If you have 2 dimes and 3 pennies, how many cents do you have?


Your response:
Thought: In this activity, students write word problems that compare coin amounts.
Answer: B

Now, assign the following problem or activity to one or more relevant standards it aligns with.

options: Use variables to represent quantities in a real-world or mathematical problem, and construct simple equations and inequalities to solve problems by reasoning about the quantities.

Solve multi-step real-life and mathematical problems posed with positive and negative rational numbers in any form (whole numbers, fractions, and decimals), using tools strategically. Apply properties of operations to calculate with numbers in any form; convert between forms as appropriate; and assess the reasonableness of answers using mental computation and estimation strategies. For example: If a woman making $25 an hour gets a 10% raise, she will make an additional 1/10 of her salary an hour, or $2.50, for a new salary of $27.50. If you want to place a towel bar 9 3/4 inches long in the center of a door that is 27 1/2 inches wide, you will need to place the bar about 9 inches from each edge; this estimate can be used as a check on the exact computation.
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
Three toothpick configurations are shown in the chart below.
[IMG]
a.   Extend the pattern to complete the chart.
b.   How many toothpicks will be in the 10th design?
c.   Write an expression to represent the number of toothpicks in the
$$n$$
th design.
d.   Which design will have 175 toothpicks? Write and solve an equation.
