Question 7: Back to school . . .

Correct

Well done. The correct answer is ‘Music’.

​

Music had been regarded as mathematical since Pythagoras in Ancient Greece, and this was still the case in Shakespeare’s time. For example in The Taming of The Shrew, Hortensio disguises himself as a tutor ‘cunning in music and mathematics’.
