Number Sense Marathon (Mental Math)
brainpopper   535
N 2 hours ago by MC_ADe
Number Sense Marathon
Hi, there isn't a number sense marathon that I know of so i'll just make one.

READ THESE RULES:
1. All calculations must be done in the head. No calculators, no paper, no writing.
2. Make problems doable. If you deem a problem too hard, skip it.
3. Please don't fight over a solution or something ridiculous.
4. Use hide tags for your problems and solutions.
5. Make all problems actually number sense. You can find a practice test for number sense here (thanks davidaops)

Don't know how to solve half the problems? Learn some tricks for mental math here.

Please make sure to follow the following format:
To post and hide your solutions, use the S# P# format. It looks like this:
[quote=User1]
S5
P6
[/quote]
[quote=User2]
S6
P7
[/quote]
To use hide tags, simply do
[code]P5[/code]to get
P5.

If you'd like to make your problems and solutions fancy, you can use LaTeX.

Lastly, please don't post if you don't know what you're doing.

We (PatTheKing806 and Sadas123) have created a private forum for people to do math with friends. I believe this is the funniest and the most joyful way of doing math problems. There are currencies to motivate people to get #1 on the leaderboard.

This is similar to the 'AMC 8 Prep Buddies' Forum, but if anybody wants to join, just type, /join and one of us will add you. This is also a FTW Forum if you are curious too!

Here is the link to our forum. See you there!
