Unsolved Maths

Three mathematicians have set a new limit for when patterns show up in sets of integers, making it the first progress on one of the major unsolved problems in the field of combinatorics in decades.

11-year-olds at a primary school in China's Shunqing were asked to answer a question that many online have termed unsolvable, reports BBC. Pictures of the question have since created quite a stir on Chinese social media as many have been left utterly confused about the answer.
