There are scales and $(n+1)$ weights with the total weight $2n$. Each weight is an integer. We put all the weights in turn on the lighter side of the scales, starting from the heaviest one, and if the scales is in equilibrium -- on the left side. Prove that when all the weights will be put on the scales, they will be in equilibrium.

Given four colours and enough square plates $1\times 1$. We have to paint four edges of every plate with four different colours and combine plates, putting them with the edges of the same colour together. Describe all the pairs $m,n$, such that we can combine those plates in a $n\times m$ rectangle, that has every edge of one colour, and its four edges have different colours.

Let $n$ be an even integer greater than $2$. On the vertices of a regular polygon with n sides we can place red or blue chips. Two players, $A$ and $B$, play alternating turns of the next mode: each player, on their turn, chooses two vertices that have no tiles and places on one of them a red chip and in the other a blue chip. The goal of $A$ is to get three vertices consecutive with tiles of the same color. $B$'s goal is to prevent this from happening. To the beginning of the game there are no tiles in any of the vertices. Show that regardless of who starts to play, Player $B$ can always achieve his goal.

[b]p2.[/b] In New Scotland there are three kinds of coins: $1$ cent, $6$ cent, and $36$ cent coins. Josh has $99$ of the $36$-cent coins (and no other coins). He is allowed to exchange a $36$ cent coin for $6$ coins of $6$ cents, and to exchange a $6$ cent coin for $6$ coins of $1$ cent. Is it possible that after several exchanges Josh will have $500$ coins?

Let $k$ be a positive integer and $n_1, n_2, ..., n_k$ be non-negative integers. Points $P_1, P_2, ..., P_k$ lie on a circle in such a way that at point $P_i$ there are $n_i$ stones. Leandro wishes to change the position of some of these stones in order to accomplish his objective which is to have the same number of stones at each point of the circle. He does this by repeating as many times as necessary the following operation: if there exists a point on the circle with at least $k - 1$ stones, he can choose $k -1$ of these and distribute them by giving one to each of the remaining $k - 1$ points. For which values $n_1, n_2, ..., n_k$ can Leandro accomplish his objective?
In the figure below there is a configuration of stones for $k = 4$. On the right is the initial division of stones, while on the left there is the configuration obtained from the initial one by choosing $k - 1 = 3$ stones from the top point on the circle and distributing one each to the other points.

On a circle there are $2n+1$ points, dividing it into equal arcs ($n\ge 2$). Two players take turns to erase one point. If after one player's turn, it turned out that all the triangles formed by the remaining points on the circle were obtuse, then the player wins and the game ends.
Who has a winning strategy: the starting player or his opponent?
