BattleBots IQ Rules and Guidelines
Chapter Test

  • If you work the math with decimals, use 5 decimal places where needed and give the most accurate answer to 1 decimal place.
  • Do not round any decimals. Ex: The correct form of 2.386 is 2.3
  • Pi = 3.14159
  • Fill in the blank answers are listed at the bottom of this page in random order.
