The teacher didn’t write OR understand the question. It’s about reasonableness - that is, not just mindlessly solving math. The solution is that Marty’s pizza was bigger, so 4/6 of that was more than 5/6 of Luis’, smaller pizza.
There is no lie. The teached is just dumb. Or more likely overworked, but wrong nontheless.
There is no lie or contradiction in the problem, what are you smoking? The kid’s answer is exactly correct.
They’re not on about the kids answer. They’re talking about the teacher saying Luis ate more. How? It literally says in the question Marty ate more.
what does this even teach the kid about statements by authority? that it’s all lies and trust nobody?
Marty ate more than Luis, that was she lie, in the problem not the answer. That’s if the teacher is saying the answer isn’t right.

This is not that level of reasoning. This is basically 4 < 5 if they’re both over 6. This is introducing fractions… It’s not that deep.
You’re arguing with the teacher.
