155 birds $ P_1, \ldots, P_{155}$ are sitting down on the boundary of a circle $ C.$ Two birds $ P_i, P_j$ are mutually visible if the angle at centre $ m(\cdot)$ of their positions $ m(P_iP_j) \leq 10^{\circ}.$ Find the smallest number of mutually visible pairs of birds, i.e. minimal set of pairs $ \{x,y\}$ of mutually visible pairs of birds with $ x,y \in \{P_1, \ldots, P_{155}\}.$ One assumes that a position (point) on $ C$ can be occupied simultaneously by several birds, e.g. all possible birds.

Let $n$ be a given positive integer. Let $\mathbb{N}_+$ denote the set of all positive integers.
Determine the number of all finite lists $(a_1,a_2,\cdots,a_m)$ such that:
[b](1)[/b] $m\in \mathbb{N}_+$ and $a_1,a_2,\cdots,a_m\in \mathbb{N}_+$ and $a_1+a_2+\cdots+a_m=n$.
[b](2)[/b] The number of all pairs of integers $(i,j)$ satisfying $1\leq i<j\leq m$ and $a_i>a_j$ is even.
For example, when $n=4$, the number of all such lists $(a_1,a_2,\cdots,a_m)$ is $6$, and these lists are $(4),$ $(1,3),$ $(2,2),$ $(1,1,2),$ $(2,1,1),$ $(1,1,1,1)$.

Take the square with vertices $(0,0)$, $(1,0)$, $(0,1)$, and $(1,1)$. Choose a random point in this square and draw the line segment from it to $(0,0)$. Choose a second random point in this square and draw the line segment from it to $(1,0)$. What is the probability that the two line segments intersect?

Let there be given two sequences of integers $f_i(1), f_i(2), \cdots (i = 1, 2)$ satisfying:
$(i) f_i(nm) = f_i(n)f_i(m)$ if $\gcd(n,m) = 1$;

$(iv) f_2(P) < 2P.$
Prove that $|f_2(n)| < f_1(n)$ for all $n$.

In a rectangular array of points, with 5 rows and $N$ columns, the points are numbered consecutively from left to right beginning with the top row. Thus the top row is numbered 1 through $N,$ the second row is numbered $N+1$ through $2N,$ and so forth. Five points, $P_1, P_2, P_3, P_4,$ and $P_5,$ are selected so that each $P_i$ is in row $i.$ Let $x_i$ be the number associated with $P_i.$ Now renumber the array consecutively from top to bottom, beginning with the first column. Let $y_i$ be the number associated with $P_i$ after the renumbering. It is found that $x_1=y_2,$ $x_2=y_1,$ $x_3=y_4,$ $x_4=y_5,$ and $x_5=y_3.$ Find the smallest possible value of $N.$

A collection of $n$ positive numbers, where repeats are allowed, adds to $500$. They can be split into $20$ groups each adding to $25$, and can also be split into $25$ groups each adding to $20$. (A group is allowed to contain any amount of integers, even just one integer.) What is the least possible value of $n$?
