[quote=Anonymous] This is an OK 4th grade question -- but many kids will struggle with it because it's presented as a word problem and not a straight equation. I would bet that not more than half of the kids get it right. The problem with these tests is that they are not diagnostic, they are only punitive. They don't tell the teachers, kids or parents where EXACTLY the child is weak. Unlike tests I took 40 years ago, which pinpointed weaknesses so the tests could actually be helpful and informative.
