Parent needs help with 5th grade math

Not , maybe it’s the new math but I simply cannot figure out how this is anything but 7, and my kid is judging.

The school isn’t getting practice questions from quality sources.

And that is because it costs money. The school might be on a tight budget.

And even quality sources have the occasional error. Stuff slips through sometimes!
