Answer
Student response includes each of the following 2 elements: · Computation component: The student identifies Table B and Table D as having the same area. · Reasoning component: The student explains that the areas are the same because 3 x 4 = 4 x 3. Notes: · Use of the term"commutative property" is not required. · Full credit for both computation and reasoning is awarded if student states "Tables B and D are both 4 x 3 = 12 square feet."

112 Part B The grid shows Table C and Table D placed end to end to make a new, larger tabletop. Tori uses the expression 3 x (2 + 4) to find the total area
- f the new, larger tabletop. Leo uses the expression (3 x
2) + (3 x 4) to find the total area of the new, larger tabletop. · Enter the total area, in square feet, of the new, larger tabletop. · Use a grid to explain why both Tori's expression and Leo's expression are correct.

Answer
Student response includes each of the following 2 elements: · Computation component: The student indicates that the total area of the combined tabletop is 18 square feet. · Reasoning component: The student explains why both expressions are correct such as, "The diagram shows you can either find the area of each table and add them together, (3x2) + (3x4), or since they both have the same length, you can just add the 2 widths together and then multiply by the length, 3 x (2+4)." Note: Use of the term "distributive property" is not required.
