188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyGyxuQVYn
MRS. JACKSON188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLTVv7lVg6
(shocked; to LENA) My goodness LENA... you are right? Well... well done. Explain your reasoning...
LENA188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFfYv6ppDW
(to MRS. JACKSON) Well both fractions 2/4 and 2/4... have like denominators... so then you add the numerators. After that since 4 divided by 4 is 1 - the answer is 1...
MRS. JACKSON188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtN37eQizF
(Shocked to LENA) Well done LENA... that’s right...
(LENA smiles)
MRS. JACKSON188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgvQQt3Rzf

(To PRINCE) Incorrect PRINCE... (to LENA) And correct again LENA... well done... you’ve picked that up too fast...
PRINCE188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiV2Fv9lwV
(annoyed to himself) WHAT... DAMN... HOW...
MRS JACKSON188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcLQ8gdC95
(to LENA) EXPLAIN YOUR REASONING ONCE AGAIN LENA...
LENA188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMATH58lFyr
(explains to MRS JACKSON) Okay... again... the two fractions have like denominators.... so you add the numerators. However the fraction can not be reduced. The fraction would be the same as 13/4. 13/4 is evidently the same as 13 divided by 4. THEN we must convert the fraction to a mixed number using long number...
(LENA performs the long division formula on the whiteboard; this equaling to 3 1/4. MRS JACKSON is impressed).
MRS. JACKSON188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7kF6oSnJz
(smiles to LENA) Well done LENA... Your math skills are most superb...
PRINCE188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94LEWSfF6B

(LENA still shy; becomes brave and stands up for herself to PRINCE)
LENA188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dSdRLBSBb
(to PRINCE) Well it wasn’t right when you did it to me in ENGLISH class. I say payback. Intelligence is measured in all forms... some of us may be good at one thing; but may suck at another thing... It’s good to focus on SOMETHING YOU ARE GOOD AT...
(LEE smiles at LENA)
LEE188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDr2D9kSnb

LEE188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2plNuTDr1
(annoyed to DUTY TEACHER) I’m sorry SIR... but I didn’t like PRINCE picking on LENA... He did in front of class; and now on lunch break... I find it rude and disgusting...
(PRINCE chuckles and stops holding his stomach. THE DUTY TEACHER looks firm at PRINCE in annoyance)
DUTY TEACHER188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnuyUy1vuz
(firm to PRINCE) So what LEE is saying is right... is that correct?
