You can pick a or c: 6*(9*1) or 6*(9+0)
why not b too? 6*(7+2)=6*(2+7) Not that I know much about educating children, but I suspect that demanding detailed educational standards about content is a waste of time. More effective might be to demand that the teachers actually know their topic. E.g. I had an elementary school teacher try to teach us that a/b + c/d = (a+c)/(b+d). Some parent, perhaps mine, later stepped in to try to correct her. So, maybe: don't test the children, test the teachers. -- Warren D.
