Now you close the question again?

skullpatrol · Answer

Did I do anything wrong @TuringTest?

skullpatrol · Answer

As a teacher I can only show them the methods, I can't do it all for them. 
Otherwise There is no learning @AccessDenied

skullpatrol · Answer

Btw @jjuden your answer of c was right, but in math if you don't know why you can't reproduce the method on other questions and thus having the right answer doesn't mean much.
