Bright primary school student nails the perfect answer to a VERY poorly worded maths question

A smart primary school student has won fans on social media after pointing out a glaring error in a poorly worded maths test.

The schoolgirl, known only as Myrah, was sitting a maths test and nailed the first question before she was left stumped by the next one.

'Jane has 12 crayons and Kim has 7 crayons. How many more crayons does Susan have than Kim?' the question read.

The student, known only as Myrah, was sitting a maths test when she was stumped by a question that made no sense

The confused schoolgirl replied brilliantly by writing 'Who is Susan?' as her answer.

The test was shared on Reddit and social media users congratulated Myrah on her snappy response.

'Myrah is f***ing going places,' someone wrote.

'Myrah ain't have that sh**,' another commented.

'Maybe it's a reading comprehension test disguised as a math test,' someone else pointed out.

'It might be a "trick question" to ensure the kids can read words as much as numbers,' another suggested.

The primary school student was left confused at the question and instead wrote her own on the test

Other social media users pointed out that the wording of questions one and three on Myrah's test could also confuse the students.

'There are 8 birds on a branch. There are 3 birds on another branch. How many birds are in the tree?' question one read.

A Reddit user commented: 'How do we know those 2 branches are part of the same tree?'

The third question read: 'There are 8 fish in the pond. 7 fish swam away. How many fish are left in the pond?'

'Even if fish swim away in a pond...they're still in the pond,' someone pointed out.
