Given $19$ red boxes and $200$ blue boxes filled with balls. None of which is empty. Suppose that every red boxes have a maximum of $200$ balls and every blue boxes have a maximum of $19$ balls. Suppose that the sum of all balls in the red boxes is less than the sum of all the balls in the blue boxes. Prove that there exists a subset of the red boxes and a subset of the blue boxes such that their sum is the same.

The set $\{(x, y) \in R^2| \lfloor x + y\rfloor \cdot \lceil x + y\rceil = (\lfloor x\rfloor + \lceil y \rceil ) (\lceil x \rceil + \lfloor y\rfloor), 0 \le x, y \le 100\}$ can be thought of as a collection of line segments in the plane. If the total length of those line segments is $a + b\sqrt{c}$ for $c$ squarefree, find $a + b + c$. ($\lfloor z\rfloor$ is the greatest integer less than or equal to $z$, and $\lceil z \rceil$ is the least integer greater than or equal to $z$, for $z \in R$.)

John had to solve a math problem in the class. While cleaning the blackboard, he accidentally erased a part of his problem as well: the text that remained on board was $37 \cdot(72 + 3x) = 14**45$, where $*$ marks an erased digit. Show that John can still solve his problem, knowing that $x$ is an integer

Consider a game played on the integers in the closed interval $[1, n]$. The game begins with some tokens placed in $[1, n]$. At each turn, tokens are added or removed from$ [1, n]$ using the following rule: For each integer $k \in [1, n]$, if exactly one of $k - 1$ and $k + 1$ has a token, place a token at $k$ for the next turn, otherwise leave k blank for the next turn. We call a position [i]static [/i] if no changes to the interval occur after one turn. For instance, the trivial position with no tokens is static because no tokens are added or removed after a turn (because there are no tokens). Find all non-trivial static positions.

We say that a polygon $P$ is [i]inscribed[/i] in another polygon $Q$ when all vertices of $P$ belong to perimeter of $Q$. We also say in this case that $Q$ is [i]circumscribed[/i] to $P$. Given a triangle $T$, let $l$ be the maximum value of the side of a square inscribed in $T$ and $L$ be the minimum value of the side of a square circumscribed to $T$. Prove that for every triangle $T$ the inequality $L/l \ge 2$ holds and find all the triangles $T$ for which the equality occurs.

$100$ children stand in a line each having $100$ candies. In one move, one of them may take some of their candies and distribute them to a non-empty set of the remaining children. After what least number of moves can it happen that no two children have the same number of candies? [i](N.

$P$ is a point inside $\triangle ABC$. $AP, BP, CP$ intersects $BC, CA, AB$ at $D, E, F$, respectively. $AD$ meets $(ABC)$ again at $D_1$. $S$ is a point on $(ABC)$. Lines $AS$, $EF$ intersect at $T$, lines $TP, BC$ intersect at $K$, and $KD_1$ meets $(ABC)$ again at $X$. Prove that $S, D, X$ are colinear.

In the Oxtingnle math team, there are $5$ students, numbered $1$ to $5$, all of which either always tell the truth or always lie. When Marpeh asks the team about how they did in a $10$ question competition, each student $i$ makes $5$ separate statements (so either they are all false or all true): "I got problems $i+1$ to $2i$, inclusive, wrong", and then "Student $j$ got both problems $i$ and $2i$ correct" for all $j \neq i$. What is the most problems the team could have gotten correctly? [i]Proposed by Jeff Lin[/i]
