Technically correct, the best kind of correct in mathematics. The student was asked to write an addition equation that matches 3×4=12, and they delivered with surgical precision: 3+3+3+3=12 and 4+4+4=12. The teacher marked it wrong, but in the hallowed halls of mathematical rigor, this kid deserves a PhD, not an X. Multiplication is just repeated addition after all—something we conveniently forget until some elementary school revolutionary reminds us. Future Fields medalist right here, operating on a plane where conventional pedagogy fears to tread.
