Sum of Squares & Prime Factorization Contest
By AkshajK, history, 2 months ago, In English

QuickMaths now has two new levels: Sum of Squares and Prime Factorization.

Join us in the first Quickmaths Marathon 1 here from Friday Feb 23 to Friday March 1 (ending at 7:30 EST)

After the week, we'll host a live five-game Twitch showdown among the top five in each of the two categories to determine the winner.

The winners in each category will win $50 each (via Amazon Gift Card).

Good luck!

The Sum of Squares task is to write a number as the sum of at most 4 squares. For example, $$$151 = 100 + 25 + 25 + 1$$$ so an acceptable answer would be "100 25 25 1" or "25,1,25,100", etc.

The Prime Factorization task is to prime factorize the given number. For example, the prime factorization of $$$405$$$ would be "3^4 * 5" or "5^1*3^4", etc.
