WHAT IS AN ESTIMATHON?

You and your team (3–4 people) get 30 minutes to tackle 13 real-world estimation problems. No advanced math skills required – just curiosity, teamwork, and good intuition.

Example question: How many currywurst sausages are sold in Berlin per year?
Your team submits a range, e.g. [20 million, 100 million]. The narrower your range – while still containing the true answer – the better your score!
