How about 1+4 = 1. One fox + four chickens in the hen house = 1 fox in the hen house?
the way he has framed it has made it seem that he isn't teaching it that way
I think I said that. He probably attended a ProD day session or something and now thinks he is all smart shit. This type of thing is supposed to be about teaching critical thinking and thinking outside the box. IQ test type stuff. Not SJW crap.
Wouldn’t you have to define the different units in that example? Ie (1f+4h)H =1fH or something like that? Thus not simply 1+4=1? Lol I’m not a very mathy guy so that’s probably not the right way to express that situation but I think you would have to define that 1 is the fox, 4 the hens and then those in context of being added in a hen house results in 1 fox in the hen house
Sure, and that is what I did. I just used words instead of notation. But is a riddle for 8 year-olds to teach critical thinking. As you just pointed though, you could take another level into mathematical notation & use the concept for a Grade 9 algebra class.
