Interesting, I'm autistic and what frustrates me here is that the question specifically asks you to posit "How is it possible" and the teacher insists that you're supposed to just say that it's not. Makes me want to just Calvinball the whole damn exam. 5 + 7, what is the answer? Purple. Obviously.

Your fault for not listing the size and list of toppings for both pizzas, one could be a small personal pizza size with just cheese and pepperoni and the other a full huge New Yorker sized one with double of everything.

Marty's pizza is larger. 4/6ths of a 3kg pizza is more than 5/6ths of a 1kg pizza
The statement and question make perfect sense. The kid has the only "reasonable" answer.
that kid passes my class with honors
the teacher is a moron
Same. Question sucks. Teacher is a tool. Kid needs bonus points for a creative solution.
This always pissed me off about all formal school. They don't want a good answer, they don't even want the correct answer. They want you to give them the answer they previously told you to give them, regardless of all other factors.
Real life doesn't work like that. In reality, the "correct" answer is anything that completes the objective. In this scenario, the answer provided was reasonable, logical and most importantly, it was not incorrect.
Actually a kilogramme of feathers is heavier, because you have the weight on your conscience of what you had to do to those poor birds to get all those feathers.

I have an argument like that in my calculus 1 class in college, it was an optimization problem but the professor never said that the optimization variable was a constant, so you couldn't differentiate it to zero and do the normal process that you typically do. So I just wrote that given that the perimeter wasn't a constant the area to optimize goes to infinite Givin x -> inf; y -> 0, without loss of generality. He marked me zero we discussed about it and I said that I don't care because I'm going to get a 10 next test if he didn't fucked up the question. At the next exam I made some stupid error but he still gave 9/10 for the overall class because he came to accept that he wrote the question wrong and I was the only in the class actually caring and giving the class some dedication.

it's fairly clear there are two pizzas, but as to 'how' someone eats more than someone else... this is not really a simple math question, there are too many unknown variables. Maybe one has Bulemia, maybe one of them is 6'9" and has a much bigger appetite. Maybe one of the people has a congenital deformity resulting in two mouths... This question is not a math question, it's an exercise in creativity.

I know this is bait but who said they had the same-sized pizzas?
One could be XL the other one a personal pizza.

This is genuinely baffling. What was that teacher on.
If I ate 1/4 of my pizza and my gf ate 1/1 of her pizza, but the hidden context is mine is from Costco and hers is from mod, who ate more pizza
