Schoolgirls from Moscow, St. Petersburg and Kazan won gold medals at the 9th European Girls’ Mathematical Olympiad (EGMO-2020), which took place online. With three gold ones and one silver award, Russians won the team competition, the educational website ActivityEdu reports.

The opening of the Olympics was scheduled for the second half of April in the Netherlands, but due to the spread of the coronavirus, it was held online. Over 200 participants from 52 countries of the world took part in it. Within the framework of the Olympiad, it was necessary to solve six problems.

Each country had the right to present no more than four representatives. In the Russian team, all participants won medals. The gold award went to Rosalina Mirgalimova from Kazan, a graduate of the Moscow school Elizaveta Neustroeva and St. Petersburg schoolgirl Taisiya Korotchenko. The youngest Russian participant, an eighth-grader from Kazan, Ralina Yusupova, won a silver award.
