    Exactly! The answer the kid gave is the “correct” one because it shows a proper reasoning about fractions. While the teachers logic assumes that fractions are some kind of absolute value of measure???

      That’s what annoys me with marking that as wrong. The kid clearly understood the problem.

      The teacher’s from another timeline where the “pizza” made it into SI as the standard unit of food area.
