My wife has pointed out that there is indeed one other correct answer. One kids is bigger – OR, the other kid’s is smaller. TWO right answers.
Comment on Kid gave a reasonable answer without all the math bullshit
djehuti@programming.dev 2 days agoThe kid’s answer is the only correct answer. It’s not half right, or 5/6 or 4/6 right. It’s the only correct answer that fits the question. The teacher is a moron who has no business in a math classroom except as a remedial student.

Those are the same answer, one bigger makes the other smaller

Maybe it’s not smaller, just farther away?

Reminds me of the Homestar Runner one where Marzipan kept saying this the whole episode.

Marty could’ve eaten someone else’s pizza besides his own, which would also make it a correct answer. The question didn’t say he ate 4/6 of his pizza and nothing else
