What is the context? A "bonehead" is a stupid person of low intelligence. (also: blockhead) I have seen a reference to "bonehead math" as a math class that some students may be required to take as a prerequisite for college-level math classes.

Hello, AlpheccaStars. Thank you for your reply. The sentence is:

"Our treasurer was furious when the finance committee's report impugned the accuracy of his financial records and recommended that he take bonehead math."

Your explanation was helpful. Thank you, again.
