Students were left baffled thanks to a particularly harsh exam question on a maths paper.
Teenagers who sat the Edexcel GCSE Maths paper said that they were scratching their heads over one particular task. One parent told the Manchester Evening News that some teachers at their child’s school really struggled to come up with the answer to the ‘impossible’ maths question.
A University of Manchester maths student even took to social media to admit he found it ‘tough.’ Candidates were required to attempt to work out the area of the shaded part of some circles if all the circles have a radius of four.
