Lucky Larry's teacher asked him to substitute numbers for $ a$, $ b$, $ c$, $ d$, and $ e$ in the expression $ a\minus{}(b\minus{}(c\minus{}(d\plus{}e)))$ and evaluate the result. Larry ignored the parentheses but added and subtracted correctly and obtained the correct result by coincedence. The numbers Larry substituted for $ a$, $ b$, $ c$, and $ d$ were $ 1$, $ 2$, $ 3$, and $ 4$, respectively. What number did Larry substitute for $ e$? $ \textbf{(A)}\ \minus{}5\qquad\textbf{(B)}\ \minus{}3\qquad\textbf{(C)}\ 0\qquad\textbf{(D)}\ 3\qquad\textbf{(E)}\ 5$

Seven teams play a soccer tournament in which each team plays every other team exactly once. No ties occur, each team has a $50\%$ chance of winning each game it plays, and the outcomes of the games are independent. In each game, the winner is awarded a point and the loser gets 0 points. The total points are accumilated to decide the ranks of the teams. In the first game of the tournament, team $A$ beats team $B$. The probability that team $A$ finishes with more points than team $B$ is $m/n$, where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Find $m+n$.
