The objective of the 2013 K-12 conference was to select one unsolved problem for each grade K-12. Some of these may be inspiring for this conference. In the following 4 pages I’ll present the 13 winners - then a selection of other unsolved problems.

Grade 8 Erdős-Straus Conjecture Paul Erdős & Ernst Straus, 1948 Andrzej Schinzel conjectures that for any positive k there exists a number N such that, for all n ≥ N, there exists a solution in positive integers to k/n = 1/x + 1/y + 1/z. The version of this conjecture for k = 4 was made by Erdős and Straus and for k = 5 was made by Wacław Sierpiński.

Guilloché Patterns jGuillot, c.1620 Guilloché patterns are patterns created with imbedded cogs. A simplified two-cog version is available commercially under the name “spirograph”. There is no known way to efficiently reconstruct the cogs that were used to create a Guilloché pattern - hence their traditional use on paper money to prevent forgery. This problem could be used with grade 6 students using spirograph and exploring the relationship between the number of teeth on the cogs and the number of revolutions required to complete a pattern. It could also be used with high school students studying polar coordinates. Ed Pegg Jr suggested this unsolved problem.
