I lol'd at Frederick's consistent beating schedule. Also, at least the slaves were being treated equally.

The problems make sense math wise. Now if they said he got 8 beatings in a week, how many beatings did he get per day, now that just wouldn't make sense. Because that would mean he didn't have a regular schedule. AmIright?

Very true. If anything, I admire this slaveowner. Consistent beatings, twice a day every day. Lets the slaves know what's what.

slavery has been over for a long time, get over it. Those kids nor their parents were never apart of it. You dont hear the Jews bitching everytime slavery is brought up.

There would have been plenty of Jewrage going on if the problem was "Each incoming train has 56 Jews. If 8 Nazis gas them equally, how many Jews would each Nazi gas"?

No. You cannot determine who gassed who, therefore impossible to answer.

Still does not make these questions appropriate for a 3rd grade math lesson.

There are two possible answers to this problem... The real answer is that there is not enough information to make and educated response. Is this a "simple math problem" which would be right to left adding and subtracting the ones until you multiple the zero and get ZERO?

Or is this posted to be an algebraic equation which would result in the use of "Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally?" In that case, the answer would be 14

There are two answers and not enough info provided to find which is the right answer.

I'm seeing this as a grammar problem.


"Each tree had 56 oranges. If eight mofo slaves pick them equally, then how much would each mofo pick?"

"If Frederick went to two business and sent out two resume per day, how many beatings would he avoided in one week?"

Frederick's master allows him to read, write and send out resumes? WTF kind of slaveowner gives his property that kind of free time? You're either picking crops or getting beat! Period. The end.

Frederick can rob a house in 25 minutes. How many houses can Frederick rob before the white people come home from their jobs? Assuming each white person is gone from 9-5 and Frederick does not want to be caught in the act.
