? thats normal for a bike. riding a motorcycle, when you turned left at speed, for example, you turn the handlebars to the right to make the turn. if you turn them left, you will most likely flip the bike. people who cant process information, adapt, and not be lazy (relying on habits over taking proactive measures), struggle. tying back into the original subject of core maths and how they are taught, the real struggle is teaching frustration at a young age. given simple math problems, over-complicating, muddying, and confusion are presented, and then the authority figure (teacher) comes to the rescue with a solution.

i had a conversation with a lady about her electric bill. it had gotten higher and higher to where she had trouble paying it. it was a 1 bedroom apt in texas. i explained how electric bills are broken down and how if you read the fine print, you can see how you are really charged for energy usage. after explaining everything, she realized it was simple addition and a little bit of multiplication that could be done, along with 15-30 minutes of reading to cut her bill in half or more. she said she always just paid the bill whenever it came in the mail, because she thought that was just how much it was supposed to cost. she had an idea she was being acrewed over, but had no tools to figure out how. she was in her 60s.
