Topic	Can you solve this ASIAN Style MATH Problem for 6 Year Olds? What's the answer?
Golden Road 08/22/17 12:39:15 PM #27:	AbsoluteDenial posted... You guys think this would be hard for a 6-year-old? In addition to what the problem states, they'd only need to understand that if you add anything to 1 bottle, the same needs to be added to each of the other 2, or simply that adding to 1 bottle is adding 3 times as much to the total (yes, 6-year-olds can learn multiplication). Going that route, the picture provided makes it even easier to solve. 6-year-olds are just learning how to do scary word problems and 2-digit addition, and somehow you think they can solve not just algebra, but an algebra word problem? --- Who's your favorite character from "Bend It Like Beckham"?
