Kek, Poland. Top bantz.
A teacher in the eastern Polish city of Bialystok gave the size of a boat and the number of people on board.
The students' assignment? To calculate how many Syrian refugees had to be thrown overboard for the boat to stay afloat and reach Greece.
The teacher, Grzegorz Nowik, said it was a matter of holding the students' attention.
"4 refugees from Syria are to reach Greece on a raft which is 1m x 2 m x 20cm and (illegible) 800kg/m2," the assignment said. "Calculate how many refugees you need to push off the raft for them to reach their goal if each of them weigh 60kg."
