All you formula people give me a headache. I just do problems logically, screw writing all this formula nonsense


That's the way my daughter does it, which is great when she comes out with the right answer or the problem doesn't ask her HOW she came to that answer. But when I'm reviewing her homework with her, sometimes she can't explain to me how she got the answer. This is bad in the Common Core world we're entering, where they seem to want to know the process as well as the answer.

Hell, maybe I'm the old-fashioned one here with my insistence on writing a formula to solve the problem.
