Strand: OPERATIONS AND ALGEBRAIC THINKING (4.OA)
Use the four operations with whole numbers (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division) to solve problems
(Standards 4.OA.1-3). Gain familiarity with factors and multiples
(Standard 4.OA.4). Generate and analyze numeric and shape patterns
(Standard 4.OA.5).
Standard 4.OA.2
Multiply or divide to solve word problems involving multiplicative comparison, for example, by using drawings and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem, distinguishing multiplicative comparison from additive comparison.

Comparing Money Raised
The purpose of this task is for students to solve three comparisons problems that are related by their context but are structurally different. In these multiplicative comparison problems, one factor and the product are amounts of money and the other factor represents the number of times bigger one amount is than the other.

Grade 4 Mathematics Module 3: Multi-Digit Multiplication and Division
In this 43-day module, students use place value understanding and visual representations to solve multiplication and division problems with multi-digit numbers. As a key area of focus for Grade 4, this module moves slowly but comprehensively to develop students' ability to reason about the methods and models chosen to solve problems with multi-digit factors and dividends.
