Let $S$ be the set of positive integers less than $10^6$ that can be written as the sum of two perfect squares. Compute the number of elements in $S$. Your score will be given by $\max\{\lfloor75(\min\{(\tfrac{A}{C})^2,(\tfrac{C}{A})^2\}-\tfrac{2}{3})\rfloor,0\}$, where $A$ is your answer and $C$ is the actual answer.

Let $n$ be a positive integer and let $k$ be an integer between $1$ and $n$ inclusive. There is a white board of $n \times n$. We do the following process. We draw $k$ rectangles with integer sides lenghts and sides parallel to the ones of the $n \times n$ board, and such that each rectangle covers the top-right corner of the $n \times n$ board. Then, the $k$ rectangles are painted of black. This process leaves a white figure in the board. How many different white figures are possible to do with $k$ rectangles that can't be done with less than $k$ rectangles? Proposed by David Torres Flores

Let $ABC$ be a triangle with $AB=8$, $BC=7$, and $AC=11$. Let $\Gamma_1$ and $\Gamma_2$ be the two possible circles that are tangent to $AB$, $AC$, and $BC$ when $AC$ and $BC$ are extended, with $\Gamma_1$ having the smaller radius. $\Gamma_1$ and $\Gamma_2$ are tangent to $AB$ to $D$ and $E$, respectively, and $CE$ intersects the perpendicular bisector of $AB$ at a point $F$. What is $\tfrac{CF}{FD}$?

In a country with $2015$ cities there is exactly one two-way flight between each city. The three flights made between three cities belong to at most two different airline companies. No matter how the flights are shared between some number of companies, if there is always a city in which $k$ flights belong to the same airline, what is the maximum value of $k$?

There are some players in a Ping Pong tournament, where every $2$ players play with each other at most once. Given: \\(1) Each player wins at least $a$ players, and loses to at least $b$ players. ($a,b\geq 1$) \\(2) For any two players $A,B$, there exist some players $P_1,...,P_k$ ($k\geq 2$) (where $P_1=A$,$P_k=B$), such that $P_i$ wins $P_{i+1}$ ($i=1,2...,k-1$). \\Prove that there exist $a+b+1$ distinct players $Q_1,...Q_{a+b+1}$, such that $Q_i$ wins $Q_{i+1}$ ($i=1,...,a+b$)

Consider a cake in the shape of a circle. It's been divided to some inequal parts by its radii. Arash and Bahram want to eat this cake. At the very first, Arash takes one of the parts. In the next steps, they consecutively pick up a piece adjacent to another piece formerly removed. Suppose that the cake has been divided to 5 parts. Prove that Arash can choose his pieces in such a way at least half of the cake is his.

You play a game with a biased coin, which has probability $\tfrac{3}{4}$ of landing heads. Each time you toss heads, you score $1$ point, while tossing tails earns no points. After any turn, you can stop playing the game and keep the points you currently have. However, if you are still playing when you toss tails for the second time, you lose all of your points. If you play to maximize your expected score, what is your expected score from playing this game?

You have $8$ friends, each of whom lives at a different vertex of a cube. You want to chart a path along the cube’s edges that will visit each of your friends exactly once. You can start at any vertex, but you must end at the vertex you started at, and you cannot travel on any edge more than once. How many different paths can you take?

We are going to colour the cells of a $2015 \times 2015$ board such that there are none of the following: $1)$ Three cells with the same colour where two of them are in the same column, and the third is in the same row and to the right of the upper cell, $2)$ Three cells with the same colour where two of them are in the same column, and the third is in the same row and to the left of the lower cell. What is the minimum number of colours $k$ required to make such a colouring possible?
