Which button would you press?

@mathsman Why not? Lol

@SW-User
You want to know if we can get it right?
But why do you need to know that?
Why bother?
I'm sure you can think of more interesting questions.

@mathsman Ahem...what exactly are you trying to say here? If you don’t like this post then leave

@SW-User

I love your post.
You know the answer to the question so you want to see if we do too or if we get it wrong as so many people do.

@mathsman And you seem to have a problem with that?

@SW-User
Not at all
There are so many questions which need care before answering
And then checking to see if what we think is correct.
A skill young people seem often seem to lack
I'm a maths teacher so I'm specially aware of that, lol.

@mathsman Lol You think I didn’t check if the answer 25$ was right?

@SW-User
Nooooo
I'm not thinking of you I'm thinking of those who don't check and think the hat costs $50

@mathsman Lol Ohhh....Right. Well most people who got this question wrong aren’t young anymore 😆

@SW-User
😀
And maybe not many are buying a hat and a coat such as those, lol
The problem with this question is mostly that people don't anticipate being told that one costs a certain amount more than the other.
The question writer has to know the answer in order to create the question.
It's all a case of being given a specific set of information which wouldn't happen normally.

@mathsman They just need to read the question carefully lol

@SW-User
Another common failing, lol
