IGNORE that RIDICULOUS answer (0) by the other person!!

This will NOT occur in the future because it has already occurred.

He's a person who believes he knows it all! Plus, he's a sexist, so DON'T pay any attention to him!

Ignore the answer from tutor @MathTherapy, who said the answer from the other tutor was ridiculous.


The other tutor correctly answered the given problem (Max is 12 years OLDER than Leo); tutor @MathTherapy solved a different problem (Max is 12 years OLD).

Dear tutor @MathTherapy....


You call ME stupid, when you can't even see that the question you answered is not the question that was asked?


Grow up.


Instead of calling people names (childish!), why don't you go back to providing useful answers to readers' questions, as I used to see from you?

 The sqabbling tutors are probably the same person with 2 accounts.
