No, she decided she had had enough school this week
My mum was at secondary school during WWII, but my dad left school and joined the Navy and saw a fair bit of action, but never spoke about much of his experiences.

Apples cost 10 pence each and oranges 12 pence each.
How much will it cost to buy 16 apples and 9 oranges?
If you can work that out then you have used basic Algebra!
a = 10
o=12
16a + 9o = ?
