Herrman recently posted a photo on Facebook of a check he wrote to the school in Painesville, Ohio, in which the dollar amount of the check was expressed as a nonsensical string of Xs and Os.
The school uses the Common Core, Herrmann says, the standardized (and often criticized) curriculum designed to level the playing field in American education.
Though Herrmann admits he never sent the check in, he does joke that the school should be perfectly capable of deciphering the correct amount, given its use of the Common Core.

And if you look, the 3 people who proclaim to "understand" this amount on the check came up with 3 different answers varying by a thousand dollars or more! And these are people who admittedly "understand" it!
Plain math is the only way to go, sorry losers.
