$$63\times2,116$$
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?


Topic options: 
A. Number & Operations - Fractions: students learn to understand fractions as numbers and may work with them using addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
B. Operations & Algebra: students learn to solve problems using algebraic thinking and operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. They may learn to identify and explain arithmetic patterns, evaluate or manipulate numerical expressions, and reason with equations and inequalities.
C. Modeling: students learn to choose and use appropriate mathematics and statistics to analyze real-world empirical situations, improve decisions, and report on their conclusions and the reasoning behind them.
D. Number & Operations in Base Ten: students learn to work with the base-ten system and build place value understanding.
E. Ratios & Proportional Relationships: students learn to recognize, describe, represent, and reason with ratios, rates, proportional relationships, and percent.
F. Number Systems and Quantity: students learn to understand the complex number system and reason quantitatively.
G. Counting & Cardinality: students learn to know number names and the count sequence, count to tell the number of objects, and compare numbers.
H. Measurement & Data: students learn to work with data and measure attributes such as time, money, length, area, and volume. They may learn to compare measurements to operations and convert between different units of measure.
I. Geometry: students learn to classify geometric figures by their properties, and understand and compare the relationships between them. Students develop and use formulas to compute lengths, areas, and volumes, and they use transformations to generate new shapes and compare existing ones. Geometry can be studied with and without coordinates.
J. Functions: students learn to define, use, and evaluate functions to model relationships between quantities.
K. Statistics & Probability: students learn to analyze and produce data distributions, and build understanding of univariate and bivariate data. They learn to interpret data, make statistical inferences, justify conclusions, understand rules of probability, and use probability to make decisions.

problem_activity: Activity
In later lessons, students will encounter situations in which they need to figure out if they have enough information to be sure two triangles are similar, based on angle measure alone. This activity introduces that concept as students grapple with whether the given information is enough to figure out that at least two pairs of corresponding angles are congruent.
Students will need to use their knowledge of the Triangle Angle Sum Theorem to figure out the third angle in each triangle.
Launch
Speaking, Reading: MLR5 Co-Craft Questions.
Use this routine to increase awareness of the language used to talk about the features of similar triangles. Before revealing the questions in this activity, display the image of both triangles. Ask students to write down possible mathematical questions that could be asked about the image. Invite students to compare their questions before revealing the actual questions. Listen for and amplify any questions about the features of both triangles. For example, “Are the triangles similar?”, “What are the values of
\(x\)
and
\(y\)
?”, and “What are the measures of the missing angles?”
Design Principle(s): Maximize meta-awareness; Support sense-making
Student Facing
Here are 2 triangles. One triangle has a 60 degree angle and a 40 degree angle. The other triangle has a 40 degree angle and an 80 degree angle.

Explain how you know the triangles are similar.

\(x\)
and
\(y\)
?

Anticipated Misconceptions
If students are struggling unproductively, ask them to share what’s hard about this problem. (I’m stuck because I don’t have two pairs of corresponding angles.) Then ask them if it’s possible to find another corresponding angle using the information provided. (Yes, using the Triangle Angle Sum Theorem to figure out the third angle and check if the third pair of angles might be congruent.)
Activity Synthesis
The key idea is that the Triangle Angle Sum Theorem allows us to use the Angle-Angle Triangle Similarity Theorem even when we haven’t been given two pairs of congruent corresponding angles. Invite students to explain how they could tell the triangles were similar.
