A SATs question from a practice paper for 7-year-olds is said to have gone viral on the internet after baffling kids and their parents. The gist of the question is: “19 people get off a train, 17 get on. There are now 63 people on the train. How many were aboard before it stopped?”
“Baffled” parents are said to have offered answers ranging between 46 and 80. Which suggests that compulsory education for parents seems to be needed as much as education for kids.
