Task
Cruz and Erica were both getting ready for soccer.
Cruz ran 1 lap around the school.
Erica ran 3 laps around the playground.
Erica said,
I ran more laps, so I ran farther.
Cruz said,
4 laps around the school is 1 mile, but it takes 12 laps around the playground to go 1 mile. My laps are much longer, so I ran farther.
Who is right? Draw a picture to help you explain your answer.


Standard options: 
A. Explain why a fraction a/b is equivalent to a fraction (n × a)/(n × b) by using visual fraction models, with attention to how the number and size of the parts differ even though the two fractions themselves are the same size. Use this principle to recognize and generate equivalent fractions.
Grade 4 expectations in this domain are limited to fractions with denominators 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 100.
B. Compare two fractions with different numerators and different denominators, e.g., by creating common denominators or numerators, or by comparing to a benchmark fraction such as 1/2. Recognize that comparisons are valid only when the two fractions refer to the same whole. Record the results of comparisons with symbols >, =, or <, and justify the conclusions, e.g., by using a visual fraction model.

Your response, in json format:
{
  "explanation": "This task asks students to compare two fractions that are equal. The two fractions have different numerators and denominators (e.g. 1/4 and 3/12). The students need to explain why the two fractions are equal by drawing a picture, which involves using visual fraction models.",
  "answer": "A, B"
}

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

options: Measure the length of an object twice, using length units of different lengths for the two measurements; describe how the two measurements relate to the size of the unit chosen.

Estimate lengths using units of inches, feet, centimeters, and meters.

Measure to determine how much longer one object is than another, expressing the length difference in terms of a standard length unit.

Measure the length of an object by selecting and using appropriate tools such as rulers, yardsticks, meter sticks, and measuring tapes.
problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this warm-up is to elicit the idea that a centimeter is the length of the edge of a centimeter cube and to connect this with the length of a base-ten block composed of 10 centimeter cubes. This will be useful when students measure with base-ten blocks and report their measurements in centimeters in a later activity. While students may notice and wonder many things about these images, discussion of the attributes of the shapes are emphasized by the labels and the meaning of a centimeter are the important discussion points. Students use and revise their language to clearly describe the images (MP6).

Activity Synthesis
“How are the labels on both images the same? How are they different?” (They both show the length of one square. They both show 1 length unit. One says centimeter and one says cm.)
“Both labels show the length of 1 centimeter. Centimeter is a long word and can be hard to use to label your length units. We can use cm for short. ‘C’ represents centi and ‘m’ represents meter.”
Display a centimeter cube and 10-centimeter tool.
“If the length of 1 edge of a centimeter cube is 1 centimeter, how long is this block? Explain.” (It’s 10 centimeters long because it shows 10 blocks put together. Each block is 1 centimeter long.)
“When we practiced adding and subtracting by place, we used these tools to show ones and tens.”
“When we measure we will call them centimeter cubes and 10-centimeter tools to describe their lengths.”
