My daughter, Kt, is in an accelerated math class and sometimes I wonder why! Now, in the days when math is SO much more than computation, she brings home homework that really makes me Laugh-Out-Loud, especially when I see her answers!
Today's homework (of course, effort was due the unseasonably warm weather that was calling):
1 Half-gallon of cider $2.50
1 Gallon of cider $4.00
Last question on the paper: Which would be better to buy, 2 half gallons of cider or 1 gallon? Why?
Kt's Answer:
One gallon, because it's easier to carry!
As I chuckled, I thought, "Well, she did answer the question!" Time for some better math questions if that's how we're doing math these days!!

Leave it to the kiddies to perceive what really matters!
You are so right! Masters of the obvious, they are!
