Parent and 7th grader dispute a 50% probability answer on a math question

A Reddit post describes a 7th grader refusing to answer 50% because it was not how his teacher taught them, with the parent refusing to give the percent for 63/90 over the question's wording. Only one post was collected, so no wider confirmation exists.

• My 7th grader refuses to put "50%" as the answer here because it's "not how my teacher taught us" and I won't tell him what 63/90 is as a percent as a matter of principle against a poorly worded question! (It should say "flipped an uneven coin" or "experimental probability")r/mildlyinfuriating
