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?


Mathematical concept/skill options: 
A. Analyze proportional relationships and use them to solve real-world and mathematical problems.
B. Understand ratio concepts and use ratio reasoning to solve problems.


Your response, in json format:
{
  "explanation": "This problem focuses on the ratio between two ingredients. Students do not have to analyze proportional relationships in-depth, which is reserved for a higher grade level, but rather use ratios to find missing values.",
  "answer": "B"
}

Now, assign the following problem or activity to one or more relevant mathematical concepts/skills it teaches.

problem_activity: Narrative
This warm-up prompts students to carefully analyze and compare representations of patterns. Listen for the language students use to describe and compare the elements of each pattern and give them opportunities to clarify what they mean when they use numbers to describe the patterns (MP6).

Activity Synthesis
“What features of the diagrams did you look at when you tried to find which one doesn’t belong?” (Sample response: the number of small squares in each shape)
If time permits, ask students to think about which one doesn’t belong if they pay attention to the number of rows or the perimeter rather than the number of squares.
