What Math Olympiads (MOEMS) covers

MOEMS rewards resourceful thinking over memorized formulas. This map organizes the problem set into five domains — arithmetic and number, fractions and algebra, word problems and logic, counting and patterns, and geometry — each laddering from a single technique toward the full domain.

Unit questions open after sign-in with a Series pass. Each child's first round is free, with its summary.

  1. Arithmetic & Number Foundations

    Fast, clever computation and the divisibility structure of the whole numbers.

    3 units

  2. Fractions, Ratios & Algebra

    Proportional reasoning and the first steps toward solving with unknowns.

    2 units

  3. Word Problems & Logic

    Translating a story into math and reasoning your way to the answer.

    2 units

    • Word Problems — Averages, rates, equal sharing, counting legs, ages, money, and other classic story setups.
    • Logical Reasoning — Working backwards, rate reasoning, and counting handshakes and pairs.
  4. Counting, Probability & Patterns

    Systematic counting, the chances it produces, and the sequences that repeat.

    2 units

  5. Geometry & Measurement

    Measuring flat figures and the solids they fold up into.

    2 units

  6. More topics

    Further topics from the exam's official scope.

    47 units

This is the top Level of the Series.

A sample question from Math Olympiads (MOEMS)

A pipe fills a tank in 12 minutes. What fraction of the tank does it fill in one minute?

Worked solution

  1. In 12 minutes it fills 1 whole tank.
  2. In 1 minute it fills 1/12 of the tank.

Read-only. Every other question opens after sign-in; each child's first round is free.
