Thank goodness I married a math genius, because apparently 6th grade math is my cap. Thanks for saving the day @hal_pomeranz!

@hal_pomeranz If a serving of pie is 1/3 a pie and you have 6 pies, how many people can you feed? Answer: I’m eating 6 pies.

@hal_pomeranz "What is the problem for the expression 6 : 1/3?" ;) --or maybe "How many words are there in the expression 6 : 1/3?"

@hal_pomeranz "what is 6 times 3?" <- it's a word problem, right??
