Fix postive integer $n\geq 2$. Let $a_1,a_2,\dots ,a_n$ be real numbers in the interval $[1,2024]$. Prove that $$\sum_{i=1}^n\frac{1}{a_i}(a_1+a_2+\dots +a_i)>\frac{1}{44}n(n+33).$$ [i]Proposed by Radu-Andrei Lecoiu[/i]

Is it possible to split a prism into disjoint set of pyramids so that each pyramid has its base on one base of the prism, while its vertex on another base of the prism ? (6)

2022/2023 Tournament of Towns, P4

In a checkered square, there is a closed door between any two cells adjacent by side. A beetle starts from some cell and travels through cells, passing through doors; she opens a closed door in the direction she is moving and leaves that door open. Through an open door, the beetle can only pass in the direction the door is opened. Prove that if at any moment the beetle wants to return to the starting cell, it is possible for her to do that.

PEN N Problems, 3

Let $\,n>6\,$ be an integer and $\,a_{1},a_{2},\ldots,a_{k}\,$ be all the natural numbers less than $n$ and relatively prime to $n$. If \[a_{2}-a_{1}=a_{3}-a_{2}=\cdots =a_{k}-a_{k-1}>0,\] prove that $\,n\,$ must be either a prime number or a power of $\,2$.

Define the [i]mexth[/i] of \(k\) sets as the \(k\)th smallest positive integer that none of them contain, if it exists. Does there exist a family \(\mathcal F\) of sets of positive integers such that [list] [*]for any nonempty finite subset \(\mathcal G\) of \(\mathcal F\), the mexth of \(\mathcal G\) exists, and [*]for any positive integer \(n\), there is exactly one nonempty finite subset \(\mathcal G\) of \(\mathcal F\) such that \(n\) is the mexth of \(\mathcal G\).
