This first grade maths problem has the internet stumped

It may have been years since you’ve stepped inside a classroom – but have you still got what it takes to get into university?

As year 12 students prepare to take their HSC exams, Clue Learning have devised a maths quiz for parents, to help them put their own skills to the test.

The questions are based on curriculum topics kids preparing to take their final exams have studied at school, including problem solving and calculus equations.
