“Myrah is f***ing going places”.

A schoolgirl has left impressed internet users with her blunt response to a bad maths question.

The student named Myrah, whose age isn't known, was set a series of maths problems when she spotted a glaring mistake in the quiz.

It read: “Jane has 12 crayons and Kim has 7 crayons. How many more crayons does Susan have than Kim?”

You’d forgive any young kid for struggling to understand the question, but not Myrah who wrote: “Who is Susan?”

She went on to correctly answer questions three, four, five and six – but her brilliantly sassy response was later shared on Reddit where it has gained a lot of love.

“Myrah is f***ing going places,” one wrote.

“This little girl is going to grow up to be one heck of a woman,” another said.

Some suggested it was a “trick question” to ensure the kids can read words as much as numbers while a teacher responded saying it was entirely possible the question was written by a very “tired and stressed” indvidual.

“Teachers make mistakes just like everyone else,” the commenter reasoned.

Others spotted questionable phrasing in the other questions too.

“Also #1. How do we know those 2 branches are part of the same tree?” one said.

“I’ve got a problem with #3 too. Even if fish swim away in a pond... they’re still in the pond,” another added.

We hope the teacher gave Myrah full marks for her witty observation!
