Eh, I don't necessarily agree, you're testing a child's ability to come up with a solution moreso than their ability to follow instructions. Other answers are possible, and maybe a student prefers their own way. But one way of doing it, like a number line, should be so ingrained in all students that anyone knows at least that one way of doing it, imo.

Probably a number line? Draw a line to show it's only 2 jumps to 20 but 4 equally spaced jumps to 40.

As a teacher that's what I would've done at least. Number lines are quite effective at helping kids visualize numbers.

This response doesn't seem to indicate this particular teacher has adequately explained what the expected answer is though.

Maybe it's time to replay Vice City again.

Install the 'YouTube No Translation' extension to get rid of it, it's so incredibly annoying. Insane that Google still can't fathom bilingual people existing 🙄

History in Taberna is also great.

And Stefan Milo.

And How to Drink, when the episodes are more history focused.

Doesn't Sweden or someplace have a giant abandoned salt mine to store a thousand years of nuclear waste somewhere?

Not that I'm in favor of building nuclear anymore, we should've done that in the sixties.

Yeah, I guess it would type a C.

Maybe your keyboard lacks NKRO and your cat was sitting on 6 other keys? =P

Probably just because you typed C + Ctrl by accident.

Ah yes the function key.

That key nobody ever uses.

I have a microwave like that, not even a display, just two twisty knobs without any beeps. And it was only like 55 euros :)

In most countries it's perfectly legal to drink in public, if you're not driving of course, so it's a non-issue. In the US it's illegal most(?) places/cities, but if you put your drink in a paper bag the cops aren't legally allowed to check what's in it without a pat down/frisk warrant. That's my understanding of it at least.

My theory is you should only buy basic, barebones appliances. They don't try to do anything fancy and just default to what's been proven to work. Just get a fridge that does cold and nothing else.
