    Are You Smarter Than My 2nd Grader?

    So, after his fucking boatload of daily homework (I don't remember getting this much homework when I was his age) we are stumped on this last math problem and I was hoping some fresh, intelligent GFY minds could help us out. Yes I know, have him do it himself, but this is hard shit for a 7 year old.

    Question
    Using the digits 2, 4, 5 and 6 make up four addition problems whose answers are 107

    So far we have the 2 obvious ones

    65+42=107
    62+45=107

              I know they are essentially the same problems in pairs, but there is no other way to do it.

                      That is the answer! My older son, who is 10, just rattled that off like it was asking what 1+1 was "Dad, that is a family of facts question - easy dad! I'm surprised you didn't know that!"

                      Man, my boys of 7 and 10 just made me feel like a retard. I guess I should their paternal father is.


                      Thanks for your help you two.

                      Spunky, thanks for not making me feel like the only mathematically challenged person on the board!

                              No, but I'm sure I could beat him in arm wrestling.

                                                  Sounds like Saxon math. I guess that's what most schools are doing now.
