No she wrote it on the board too, and she intended it to be a question. Like I would say to you: 'Why it is blue?' I mean that I am asking you actually why that thing is blue.
Sorry, I'm rubbish at explaining things LOL.

To me, this reads as though I should do the following:
(The black lines around it represent the box...)
Maybe it's because I'm a very literal person. Or maybe it's the use of the quotations. When I see that, I think that I'm supposed to write whatever she put in quotations, as that's what she said to do.
It's a grammatical error for sure. She shouldn't have used those quotation marks, but she also should have worded it something like, "In the box, explain why it is not a percentage." Notice that I used her awkward way of phrasing it, but it still makes sense, and is still like something you'd expect to find on a test, or assignment, or whatever it was.
I do, too, wonder why the class would feel the need to go off on her for it, and I also wonder why she felt it was necessary to ask another teacher. (I have issues with teachers who can't control their own students, and who involve other teachers in such issues. It makes me lose some respect for them.)
She was asking us to write it as a question, not to explain why it was a percentage.
I agree with you there Winged
