MAT Problem Solving Competition

Entries are now being accepted for the Mathematical Association of Tasmania Problem Solving competition. This challenging competition is for students in Years 5 & 6. Students have one hour to answer 8 questions with full marks awarded for providing some working out and clear explanations.

An example from the 2018 paper:

One cup of coffee and three doughnuts cost $4.80 and two cups of coffee and two doughnuts cost $6.40. What is the price of a cup of coffee?

See attached flyer for more information and contact Mr Johnston via the office at school to register. School will cover the cost of registration.

The Australian Mathematics Competition for grades 3-6 will be held on the 30th July 2020. Entries open in term two.
