LONDON -- She's the government minister responsible for education, but Nicky Morgan found herself schooled live on air Thursday by a 10-year-old.
"What's the cubed root of 125?" Leon Remphry asked Education Secretary Morgan on Sky News.
"I think it's probably better that politicians don't do maths or spelling on air," she responded.
Not happy to leave it there, Remphry asked again, saying that he had to press her for the answer. But Morgan gave the same response.
For anyone left wondering about the answer, Remphry revealed the cubed root of 125 is 5. The cubed root of a number is a value that when multiplied three times, gives that number so in this case it's 5 x 5 x 5.
