Others were clueless and made up their own answers.

"I haven't found out the answer, but hope to see her graded paper soon," Sappington told HuffPost. "To be honest, I'm unsure if it was printed in error or was a question to test her knowledge of less than and greater than, which she has touched on in the past."

She went on to admit that it's not the first time that homework has left the family scratching their heads.

"Being the mother of a third-grader and a fifth-grader, I have seen a lot of homework over the years that has our family laughing at the absurdities, scratching our heads and relying too much on Google."
