Put brackets in these sums, if and only if necessary, to make them correct
from the instructions, this isn't a semantics/English test ? - if a sum can't be made correct , do nothing ?
We had a similar issue in English homework for yr6.
Told my lad to say no options make sense. He wasn't brave enough to do that. He got no marks, and no explanation.
I like to think it is a test to see which pupils are prepared to question that the paper might be wrong. It clearly takes some courage to challenge, something that my son wasn't willing to do.
lol no, i went to edit, played around w/ the brackets and gave up in disgust, thought i'd wiped the post but obviously not. maths rage quitAre you sticking with that?
I'm not going to make any comment about your patience - but expectations for an immediate answer at those hours?Today at 01:18 Subscribing to get the answer from the op. Op will surely deliver

He's got the maths lesson where he's supposed to submit that homework today, so will find out later.
You've already asked this once, despite this already having been providedWas it an exercise sheet, textbook, photocopy/print out of some questions written by the teacher or some questions copied down (by your son) off the board?
Some context might help - even better just take a photo of the exercise sheet or whatever and post it as you've had some people spend time trying to solve it when it's nonsense, others trying to second guess whether it's a trick question etc.

ah my "i give up" was a section where i was writing my attempts to answer it, and then realising it was all wrong, i edited that out.I'm not going to make any comment about your patience - but expectations for an immediate answer at those hours?
