What on earth is the IMO Math Competition?
First, 2-3=0.125; among abcd, there must be a -3, and among the remaining three numbers there must be a -1. Therefore: a=4, b=2, c=-1, d=-3
You’re really skilled! But why isn’t it 0.625? Everyone is welcome to participate when they have time; just visit the link below to vote.

a=4, b=2, c=-1, d=-3; a+b+c+d=2. The solution to this problem involves finding the right values, with the key being to convert one of the negative integer powers of 2 into a decimal whose remainder is 0.005. It’s simple from there on. .
These trivial math problems, no matter how neatly solved, are of little use; they don’t represent good mathematics. Problems that involve finding side lengths are true examples of good mathematics... {:3_51:}
International Mathematical Olympiad. The International Mathematical Olympiad was established in 1959 and is known as the \"Mathematical World Cup.\" It is held once a year, with the participating countries taking turns to host it. The purpose is to discover and encourage mathematically talented teenagers around the world, to create conditions for scientific education exchanges among countries, and to foster friendly relations between teachers and students from different nations.
