Everyone’s waiting for the answer to this 2nd grade math problem. Do you have it?
Adults have been arguing on this 2nd grade problem that Louise Bloxham posted on Twitter.
Remember the dress that went viral when people argued about its colour?
We have another, similar problem to deal with!
How confident are you about your calculations? Are you sure that you are good? Think again. Because this 2nd level math problem has been asking everyone to show their calculation skills and no one has been spared from its disappointment.
A mother of second grade kid tweeted this assessment test question waiting for an exact answer in response. Hundreds of people came around, brought their calculation skills on the table and began solving this complex problem.
Some said the answer was 5, some said 2. Some insisted on the number 46. Same said the answer was zero and to justify the answer, they said that there are no people on the train! And of course, stated that the question was a tricky one.
If you're solving this question, just a tip that might come handy, count the conductor.
If you're thinking what the children did with this question when they were trying to solve, I think they did the same calculations as the adults are doing.
Since there hadn't been an exact answer to this question, someone left a comment on the Parents Against Primary Testing "The published answer for this is 65, so continue debating whether this is too hard."
Do you have the answer yet?
