The thing is, the kid circled (then erased) the "correct" answer for the first two and started circling the right one for the last question... Then stopped.

So they totally got the assignment.

    A. B. C.

    Are just undefined variables, and therefore a number. It's just that we haven't defined what those numbers are so they can still be any real number including the smallest number

    When I was an elementary teacher I would have let this slide for sure. I would have explained next time I'll count it wrong though.

    If the numbers counting the questions are part of it, then only 1 should be circled.
