Doesn't surprise me at all.
I remember a poll where they asked random people a bunch of questions like "How long does it take for the earth to make 1 revolution around the sun?" and others like it (something you probably learn by grade 5 ) and it was amazing how many people didn't know the answers. No wonder the tv show "Are you smarter than a 5th Grader" is so popular and the fact that so many contestants aren't (smarter that is).
