Does Harry Potter only know fifth grade math?

He was abducted by Hagrid when he turned 11 so that would place him maybe around the fifth or sixth grade.

I don't know if canonically there are math classes at Hogwarts.


The thought came to while I was watching the anime Mashle. If you are into Harry Potter and One-Punch Man I'd recommend giving it a watch.


Someone mentioned this community below; I wanted to highlight it.

I would trade maths knowledge for actual magic every single time. Maths basically was invented because of money & land, and that’s basically irrelevant with magic. Don’t need acres of land if you can have multiple wildlife reservations inside of a suitcase.

It’s honestly one of the best things about Harry Potter series: it leaves as much muggle crap out of it as possible.

Maths is the language of the universe. Show some god damned respect.

The universe has its language, and maths are the captions we can read not the true language. So no, you have some respect.

Oh dear, no. Not at all. No, not in the slightest. No. That's not...
No.
