Our Mathex 2014 teams did well in the recent competition at ASB Trust Stadium. Compared to the training we did, both teams did really well.

Year 7 Team: Langaola, Fineasi, Tanzeemah and Lupe.

Year 8 Team: Usaia, Eressa, Atif and Erana.

This is an example of the type of questions they had to answer.

The dread pirate Robbins had 36 gold coins.  He gave a twelfth of the coins to his first mate, Long John, an eleventh of what was left to the second mate Short John and a tenth of what was left to the cabin boy Jim, and a ninth to his favourite monkey Mickey. How many coins does the dread pirate Robbins have now?
