        @BoingBoing So you think that the answer of 15 or 24 was all the teacher was trying to teach?

        @JohnnyDee62 @BoingBoing Perhaps the teacher had explained to the student to do it a certain way for a reason and the student did not.

        @hkdharmon @BoingBoing Looks to me like the student is correct, according to the directions on the test. Teacher added five 3s & a 4x6 grid.

        @BoingBoing actually, the question is 5 groups of 3's and 4 groups of 6. So technically the teacher is right.

        @BoingBoing to a math person there is a difference, especially when you begin to divide.

        @BoingBoing - my daughter had the same issue. I lost it! It is more important to know that the order does not matter than to know the answer
