Be a matchmaker in an otome game

Chapter 368
Felisa opened up several rooms as a large classroom.

In order to take care of Riley, Felisa gave priority to answering Riley's questions, and the others had no objections, so Riley had no choice but to express his questions in front of everyone.

He was a little uneasy, afraid that his question was vulgar and uninteresting, but fortunately no one expressed such a view on his question.

Felisa answered his questions, but in fact his questions were mainly about literacy, and Riley didn't ask any of the arithmetic questions.

Does he know it all?Although she had such doubts in her heart, Felisa didn't see any clues on her face.

Riley didn't leave after getting the answer to his question, but listened to other people's questions and Felicia's explanation.

Unlike him, most of the other people's problems are related to arithmetic. After all, things like word recognition are still a lot of rote memorization, which requires understanding no more than arithmetic.

After Felisa answered everyone's questions, she glanced at Riley, and saw that he was still in a state of "fascination" and hadn't recovered yet.

Could he really understand?
What she just talked about was an application problem of a linear equation in one variable.

She has long forgotten whether she encountered any difficulties when learning linear equations in one unknown, but judging from the reactions of other people, there are still some understanding problems, and there will be situations where they can't even understand the questions. After all, they have just Start to read.

"Riley," Felisa said to wake up Riley who was in a trance, "are you interested in doing a problem?"

"Huh?" Riley pointed to himself in confusion, "Me? But I can't."

But in fact, he completely understood it just now. If it was a topic similar to the one just now, he should be able to do it... probably.

Felisa encouraged him: "Just say what you think, it doesn't matter if you don't, you've just started to learn."

Then, without waiting for his answer, Felisa read a question: Jack is five times his son's age now, and six years later, he will be three times his son's age. How old is his son this year?

Upon hearing this question, the veterans represented by Jason all showed pained expressions. They really didn't understand why Felisa was interested in this kind of topic. Either A and B met each other, or A went first and B followed behind. Chase, what's the point of asking such a boring question?

Riley subconsciously fell into deep thought after listening to the topic.

He is different from others, he doesn't think this topic is boring and meaningless, on the contrary, he thinks these numbers are wonderful, but simple addition and subtraction form an equation, he even thinks this can be called Art.

In the past, he was also helpless in the face of such a topic, but after listening to Felisa's lecture today, he seems... to be able to do it.

"Assume that the age of Jack's son is X years old, and Jack is 5X years old this year. Six years later, Jack's age will be 5X+6 years old, which is three times X+6 years old."

Riley spoke out his thoughts slowly in a low voice, but he got stuck in calculations, he was not yet proficient in mental arithmetic, so he frowned in distress.

But Felisa only needs him to do this: "Isn't this a good thing?"

Riley was stunned: "But I didn't figure it out."

Felisa shook her head: "The important thing in mathematics is not the answer, but the thinking. The answer can always be calculated, but how can there be an answer without thinking."

In the previous life, even if the answer was wrong in the math test, at least there will be a process score. As long as the process is correct, the answer will be calculated sooner or later.

"Is...is that so?" Riley was a little puzzled. In the environment he had been in contact with since he was a child, the calculated result was much more important than the process, because only the accurate result can know how much money they can make this time. How much does it cost.

But Phyllisa said the answer didn't matter.

"For arithmetic, the answer is very important, but for mathematics, the answer is not important." Felisa said meaningfully.

Many people are hearing the term mathematics for the first time. What they learned before is called arithmetic. Although arithmetic was also mathematics in Felicia's previous life, Felicia still made a distinction here.

So many people wonder: "What is mathematics, and how is it different from arithmetic?"

"Mathematics is the study of numbers," Felisa said, "and the calculation methods used in arithmetic are part of mathematics. Studying the laws between numbers is also a way for us to understand the world."

Someone muttered softly: "Then I don't want to learn mathematics at all. Anyway, I only need to know arithmetic."

Felisa laughed dumbfounded. The importance of mathematics is complementary to the development of science and technology. Now that science and technology have not yet developed, or most people have not yet realized the importance of science and technology, how can they be expected to understand? What about the role of mathematics?

"It doesn't matter," Felisa didn't insist. "As long as you finish this arithmetic, don't study it if you don't want to learn it in the future. For the research of mathematics, I will leave it to those who are interested."

When she said this, Felisa was looking at Riley.

Riley lay on Rich's back, quietly thinking about what Felisa said today.

"I seem to have found something I want to do." Riley said softly suddenly.

"What did you say?" Rich, who was concentrating on the road under his feet, didn't hear what Riley just said.

But Riley didn't need Rich to hear what he was saying, he was just talking to himself: "I want to study math."

Ever since his leg was broken, his life seemed to be all gloomy. He could only lie in bed every day, unable to even take care of himself. My sister-in-law probably wanted to drive him out a long time ago.

And this kind of him, who is useless if no one takes care of him, can actually do something he can do, and he also likes to do this thing.

Is there anything luckier than this in this world?

Although Miss Felisa didn't say it clearly, he could hear that Miss Felisa needed someone to study mathematics instead of just doing arithmetic. In that case, he was willing to be such a person.

Anyway, apart from his elder brother's family, he has no other concerns, and his elder brother will only live more easily without such a burden as him. He has a lot of time to study mathematics.

Rich heard what Riley was talking about this time, and he said without thinking: "That's good, I will always stay in front of my uncle and take care of my uncle. When my uncle goes to study mathematics, I will be responsible for teaching others arithmetic." .”

He didn't forget what Miss Felicia called her uncle to do, and he would do his uncle's job at that time, so that his uncle could concentrate on studying mathematics.

On this day, both uncle and nephew found their goals at the same time
