Fourth Grade Math

Tonight Campbell brought us her math homework. She was having a difficult time with one particular question. Aaron and I both struggled with this particular quesiton. We thought we knew the correct answer but didn't want to lead our child astray.

Living in the day and age we do, our first step was to Google the question. We had to laugh at the results. There were no fewer than ten blog posts regarding this particular 4th grade math question. Apparently we are not the only college graduate parents who can't do 4th grade math.

Also, how funny is it that we can find this information on blogs using Google? When we were in 4th grade none of this existed. Our parents just had to struggle through these questions.
