This funny happened many years ago but still gives me the giggles.
One of my students was learning about the intervals of a second and third. We had practiced finding these intervals on the staff, and now I wanted to try finding them on the piano keyboard.
I pointed to two keys a third apart and asked, “How far apart are these two keys?”
My student thought for a moment and proudly replied, “About an inch!”
Technically correct, but not quite the answer I was looking for…
