With a teacher
You handed in the wrong file for homework. The teacher marked it as missing.
The mark says: "Homework: missing."
What could you say?
Three things you could say. None of them is the one right answer; each note says why it fits the moment, or why it may not.
I uploaded the wrong file by mistake. Here is the right one. Sorry about that.
A strong fit
Names the mix-up, fixes it, one apology.
Can I re-submit? I think I sent the wrong thing.
Also works here
Asks for the fix. Naming the file makes it clearer.
Argue that you did submit it.
Worth a second look
You did submit something. Arguing does not get the right file marked.
What people here usually expect
- Wrong-file uploads are common. Most teachers accept the correct one.
- One sentence of explanation is enough.
- Asking to re-submit is a normal request.
