It’s reffering to the answer of the child, not the math question.
The teacher gave the right answer. The kid assumend 4/6 is bigger than 5/6 or that the Pizza of 4/6 kid is bigger than the 5/6 Pizza.
Why is everyone in the comments stating the teacher is wrong? Are you playing into it because it’s a shitpost or are your brains working like chatbots?
Because the teacher is wrong and it’s an idiotic question.
The question asks the child to explain how Marty ate more pizza than Luis. “He didn’t” is not an appropriate answer to that question.
We know that Marty and Louis didn’t eat from the same pizza, because Marty ate 4/6 of a pizza and Luis ate 5/6 of a pizza. We also know that Marty did eat more, because it’s right there in the question.
The only logical answer is that Marty’s pizza is bigger, and so 4/6 of his pizza amounts to more pizza than 5/6 of Luis’s smaller pizza.
The question should have been “Marty ate 4/6 of a pizza and Luis ate 5/6 of a pizza. Explain who ate more pizza.”
