Considering this kid didn’t learn which side of the number the dollar sign goes on, maybe they shouldn’t be making fun and should pay more attention.
You're of course correct in English, I just wanted to share that the currency sign goes after the value in many other languages, so it's an easy mistake for ESL people to make.
Don't some English speaking countries put their dollar sign after? I thought at least one of CAD or AUD did
