<![CDATA[Purported Primary 1 bonus question confuses the Internet]]>In this day and age, if it was really a P1 exam question, the name of the primary school would be pasted all over KSP by now.

It's the mindset of the internet users that need tuning. This is classic click baiting and yet, so many users still fell for it. They should heed the advice of Lincoln or Sir Stamford Raffles who had warned us of the perils of the internet 😉

if this is indeed a question for p1, i really pity the kids.


It's a bonus question, and no marks are deducted for getting it wrong. It's not something they are expected to \"know\", just something to try if they want to. If it were me and my older girl, we would just ignore it totally and not even try! My husband and younger daughter would probably give it a go.

Mindset of parents / child must change. We do not need to always have the answer.

See the efforts of the school to train the thinking skill sets of the young children, to enable them to become a thinking student.

There are many working adults who leave their thinking cells at home hidden in the closet.

Whatever happen to the joy of cracking our minds to brain storm for possibilities?
It is clearly printed that no marks will be deducted for wrong answer.

Not that I believe it was a P1 exam question. :razz:
According to Abraham Lincoln, if it's on the internet, it must be true.

Oh. But the question did not specify that the numbers have to between 1 and 9. It just asked the students to fill in the missing numbers. Perhaps there is another variant floating around? The mystery deepens!
No mystery lah. Just go to the Straits Times link in the first post of this thread. 😂

This question stumped even my boy who is in secondary school! Anyway it appears that the question is flawed and here's the actual solution.

Actually, the answer starting clockwise from the top is 6, 1, 8 and 9. According to where this question actually came from, the answers have to be numbers between 1 and 9. Otherwise, there can be any number of permutations. :siam:
