We offered a ride to three 7th standard students on their way back from school. When asked what they had studied at school that day, they promptly replied, “Mathematics!”
So, we asked them a simple question, “What is 27 minus 3?”
After pondering over the question for 15 minutes and discussing it amongst themselves, one of the girls replied, “22”
I wonder if they would have been able to answer correctly if we had said, ‘What is Rs. 27 minus Rs.3?
