[b]6.1[/b] The capacities of cubic vessels are in the ratio 1:8:27 and the volumes of liquid poured into them are 1: 2: 3. After this, from the first to a certain amount of liquid was poured into the second vessel, and then from the second in the third so that in all three vessels the liquid level became the same. After this, 128 4/7 liters were poured from the first vessel into the second, and from the second in the first back so much that the height of the liquid column in the first vessel became twice as large as in the second. It turned out that in the first vessel there were 100 fewer liters than at first. How much liquid was initially in each vessel? [b]6.2[/b] How many times a day do all three hands on a clock coincide, including the second hand? [b]6.3.[/b] Prove that in Leningrad there are two people who have the same number of familiar Leningraders. [b]6.4 / 7.4[/b] Each of the eight given different natural numbers less than $16$. Prove that among their pairwise differences there is at least at least three are the same. [b]6.5 / 7.6[/b] The distance AB is 100 km. From A and B , cyclists simultaneously ride towards each other at speeds of 20 km/h and 30 km/hour accordingly. Together with the first A, a fly flies out with speed 50 km/h, she flies until she meets the cyclist from B, after which she turns around and flies back until she meets the cyclist from A, after which turns around, etc. How many kilometers will the fly fly in the direction from A to B until the cyclists meet?

Pawns and rooks are placed on a $2019\times 2019$ chessboard, with at most one piece on each of the $2019^2$ squares. A rook [i]can see[/i] another rook if they are in the same row or column and all squares between them are empty. What is the maximal number $p$ for which $p$ pawns and $p+2019$ rooks can be placed on the chessboard in such a way that no two rooks can see each other?

You are eating at a fancy restaurant with a person you wish to impress. For some reason, you think that eating at least one spicy course and one meat-filled course will impress the person. The meal is five courses, with four options for each course. Each course has one option that is spicy and meat-filled, one option that is just spicy, one that is just meat-filled, and one that is neither spicy nor meat-filled. How many possible meals can you have?

We divide a convex $2009$-gon in triangles using non-intersecting diagonals. One of these diagonals is colored green. It is allowed the following operation: for two triangles $ABC$ and $BCD$ from the dividing/separating with a common side $BC$ if the replaced diagonal was green it loses its color and the replacing diagonal becomes green colored. Prove that if we choose any diagonal in advance it can be colored in green after applying the operation described finite number of times.
