week 2 homework problems

PROBLEM OF THE WEEK ARCHIVE

Every week, we release a new multi-part problem related to a holiday, season, special event or cool STEM topic...completely for free!

The solution for each Problem of the Week (POTW) is posted here the following week (included in the downloadable POTW file).

Do you have a STEM background and love writing math problems?

Volunteer to write a Problem of the Week! You can feature your STEM career or area of study...or write a just-for-fun POTW about a holiday or event! Click the volunteer button below to learn more about how you can support MATHCOUNTS resource creation.
