The love of math that the Prime Math Competition hopes to spread to others is a feeling that our team has experienced firsthand. We are all high schoolers who have taken national math competitions in the past and realized that these competitions were excelent at engaging participants but were too difficult to be easily understood by anyone without previous backgound in math. We hoped to solve this problem by creating this competition.
