The Australian Problem Solving Maths Olympiad (APSMO) is a competition which takes place throughout the year. Students sit for five separate exams with just five problems to answer each time…. sounds easy?
Well, it’s certainly not at all straightforward, especially as it is aimed at the extension maths students.
This year we had questions such as … Find the number of whole numbers between ∛2018 and √2018 … and … What is the least possible integer N such that 60/N <N? (with no calculators, of course).
There were over 10 000 students across Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific entered in our Year 7 and 8 divisions, with individual prizes going to students in the top 25 per cent or better.
