NMS Math Team Marathon!

Hi everyone!

I know that some of you would love an opportunity to post math problems on this blog for others to solve. So, I have come up with an idea to run a marathon game.

Rules:

1. Look at the posted problem. If you know how to do it, solve it and post your solution, not just your answer.

2. After getting a confirmation that your solution is correct, you will be able to post your own problem for others to solve. (Only the first person with the correct solution will be eligible to post another problem.)

3. At any given time, only 1 problem should be "active".

4. The problem you post should be of your own challenge level.

5. The marathon will run in this chain.

Enjoy!!! This marathon may run for a couple of weeks.

Let's start with an easy problem:

Kareena and a friend order one pizza that is half-pepperoni and half-vegetarian. Kareena eats 1/3 of the pepperoni part and 1/4 of the vegetarian part. What fraction of the pizza did Kareena eat? Express your answer as a common fraction.

HAPPY PROBLEM SOLVING!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Hello everyone,

I am posting problems for you to do over Thanksgiving break. I urge you to do the problems for your own benefit. You'll always miss the shot you never take!

If you have any difficulties, let me know. I will give you hints so that you can proceed further. Meanwhile, also be looking at the solutions to the previous week's problems.

Remember to post your answers. Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
