HI…Wondering if there are any good math olympiad books for sec 1???

[Worry-Mummy]

Hi, i got a daughter who is taking N level this year…I’m so worry abt her Mathematics subject…I notice she can understand and never fail in this subject(for all the class test or sementer test)…She love maths. but I was surprise and wonder why she did not do well in maths each time she sat for Mid-Year and Final year.

Here is the question:


Find the smallest number which when divided by 24 and 36 leaves a remainder of 11.

Solution given by the book:
LCM: 2X2X2X3X3
=8X9=72

Thus, require number = 72 + 11 = 83

Can explain to me why need to add the 11.

Thanks alot.

this is actually a common problem among students.

some reasons are:
1. they are not tuned to being tested all the topics at once - they don't know which topic the Qns are from hence don't know which formulas to use.

2. time management.

3. not enough stamina / attention for a 2-hour paper.

to overcome these,
the student should sit down and do a full midyear/ end of year paper, time herself for 2 hours and finish the paper within the time given.
if she can do ths once a week (Paper1 odd weeks, paper2 even weeks) she would have done at least 7 sets of papers before the mid year exam.

Hello again,


I would appreciate help with the following problem:

Factorize-

9(x to the power of ab) - ((xy) to the power of ab) - 9(y to the power of ab) - 81.

What is the correct answer?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks in advance.

Can you check the question again. Should it be +81 ?

[pinkapple]

think it should be +81 too. check?


or + 9y^(ab) - 81 ?
