By Petagaye Reid


Is it possible that your child maybe smarter than you? Yesterday I was on Facebook and I saw the picture below in my news feed. The person who shared the picture wrote 'What is the answer?'



Investigating this query the answer should be pretty simple to find. In fact, it's simple addition and multiplication, now you may do this. The shocking thing was a large number of persons got the result incorrect and these persons where adults!



Most persons wrote that 1 was the right answer; some persons wrote that 61 was the proper answer and few persons wrote that 31 was the right answer. The responses were quite interesting so I thought we would inquire the question.

So figure out friend, 'What is the correct answer?' with out cheating, step from the calculator lol.

Well, if your answer was 1 or 61 you are incorrect. The correct answer is 31. This is because of something in math called BOMDAS. Most parents expect their children to do well in math when they as parents are poor at math. What if this was your child's homework and you gave them an incorrect answer.

How would you child feel?

Your youngster would feel devastated and definately will start to hate math since it is so desperately that even their parents can't find the right answer. Being a parent you happen to be role models, you might be your son or daughter's hero and also to them the best person alive. They require your guidance being exceptional individuals. Once you can't answer a math problem they start to feel that math is actually difficult. This thought math is hard is among the the reason why a lot of children get low grades in math. This prevents them from attempting questions and math is a subject that will need practice. When they start to believe that absolutely suit hard they don't really attempt to attempt the questions because they have previously made a blockage inside their minds. Being a parent your work is to remove this blockage. Follow this advice that will help to get rid of the blockages.
