Math on a Saturday

L is finishing up his last assessment from Saxon 3 today. He's a bit bitter that he didn't get it done yesterday and he has to finish it today before he gets to play. He has himself worked into a small tizzy over a problem.

L: I've never done one like this before. It's so hard.
Mommy: Yes you have. Just settle down and you can do it.
L: No I can't! It's too hard! I've never even seen a problem like it.
Mommy: Yes, you have. Would you like to ask me any questions?
L: Yes!
Mommy: What?
L: What's the ANSWER?!?
