Who is queen of math?
Carl Friedrich Gauss one of the greatest mathematicians, is said to have claimed: “Mathematics is the queen of the sciences and number theory is the queen of mathematics.” The properties of primes play a crucial part in number theory. An intriguing question is how they are distributed among the other integers.
What are the top 5 million dollar math problems?

The problems are the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture, Hodge conjecture, Navier–Stokes existence and smoothness, P versus NP problem, Poincaré conjecture, Riemann hypothesis,…
How much does it cost to solve a math problem?
In 2000, the Clay Mathematics Institute offered a prize for anyone who could solve one of seven of math’s biggest unsolved problems. The prize was set (and remains) at $1 million per problem. To date, only one of the seven problems has been solved.
How many of the seven Prize Problems have been solved?
The goal of the prize problems was to show the general public that the field of mathematics is still an open one with many unsolved problems and to recognize math achievements that hold historic magnitude. To date, only one of the seven problems has been solved.
