Chapter 127 Three Methods Of Calculation

Su Mian’s overall grade was the last few in the class; her chemistry grade was okay, but her worst subject was mathematics, and she had even gotten only nine points for it.

Everyone stared at Su Mian. Some were looking at her excitedly, some were simply looking for fun, and some helplessly shook their heads.

“Then student Su Mian, please answer!” The algebra teacher was silent for a while and finally spoke, his eyes were a little dazed and out of focus. He didn’t know Su Mian.

In high schools of this era, teachers wouldn’t care to remember your name unless you performed well in studies, nothing else mattered.

Su Mian’s grades were so poor that the algebra teacher hadn’t even noticed that there was such a person in the class.

Su Mian stood up under the gaze of everyone. Before she said anything, her classmates burst into laughter again.

If Su Mian could answer, then the sun would come out from the west.

Su Mian just ignored the ridiculing laughter. In her previous life, she would cry aggrievedly when encountering this situation.

In this life, she would no longer let herself shed tears easily, and would no longer give people the chance to laugh at her.

Su Mian didn’t say the answer immediately, but calmly walked onto the stage from the last row of the class. She took out the chalk and began to check the calculation at the empty space, under the surprised gaze of the algebra teacher

Each step was clearly written, with a total of three lines, she even listed the mathematical formulas used aside. After finishing these, Su Mian showed another two methods of calculation, and finally gave the number 1.

She showed all three methods in less than five minutes!

The question was not very difficult. The key was to solve it cleverly. If you followed the natural way of thinking, you would at least need ten minutes to solve it!

Below the stage, more than sixty classmates including Sun Ying were stunned, each with their mouths open big enough to swallow an egg. Was that a fake that Su Mian used to only score nine points! Or did she actually want to score only nine points!

Especially Sun Ying, she was so surprised and shocked that she almost dropped her eyes onto the desk. Zhang Yan Jie had said that Su Mian was poor in math, and asking her any question would just embarrass her!

How was this embarrassment for her? This was definitely giving her the spotlight!

On the stage, the algebra teacher looked dazed, and his easygoing smile was a little distorted. In just a few minutes, this student could actually think of three different methods of calculation. Obviously, Su Mian understood the intention of the questioner, and she finally chose the simplest one!

Her name was Su Mian? Why hadn’t he noticed that there was someone like Su Mian in the class, with such quick thinking!

Li Ya Jun was the most shocked one. He knew how Su Mian’s mathematics was. He knew about it better than anyone else. Starting from the winter holiday study group, he found out that Su Mian was making progress. The questions she asked these days were even tougher, even until he almost couldn’t handle it.

But he obviously didn’t expect her to improve so quickly. It had only been two months since the winter holiday!

“Not bad, you guys can learn from Su Mian’s problem-solving ideas!” The algebra teacher nodded, with his right hand still at his back. The way he looked at Su Mian became even more amiable.

Sun Ying rolled her eyes on her seat, “Maybe she is just lucky!” Sun Ying spoke in a very loud voice. She had never cared about the teachers; her father was the principal, who would she be afraid of?

The algebra teacher’s expression sank, but he didn’t say anything.

The students below just couldn’t help!

“Sun Ying, what you said was a bit too much! You just asked Su Mian to get up and answer the question, didn’t you just want to make her look bad? Now that she has answered it, and even gave three methods, why do you still refuse to give in?”

“That’s right, if you are dissatisfied, you should solve a question too!”

Sun Ying stopped talking immediately. Mathematics was also her weakness. She had never passed the exam.
