I don't understand this.. She has to work out 23 x 22..
Now I'm not the sharpest pencil in the box, but I have a degree and a responsible job... So WHY when I worked it out as:
20 x 20 = 400
2 x 3 = 6
Answer = 406
But it's not is it? It's 506.. But I don't understand why
My poor 10 year old DD is bewildered.. And I cannot understand why I'm wrong yet I know I am!
I suspect it have a mind block... Yes that's it.. I'm not truly stupid ok I might be..
It doesn't make sense!
AIBU?
In not being able to do my 10 year olds math homework!
