The answer to each problem is represented by a symbol which is then used to solve the following problem. The team must fill out one answer sheet together.
The teams are formed by the partner schools where the remote rounds were held. In case a country participating in the final cannot form a team of 3 contestants per age group, the organisers may form international teams.
