Two intelligent people playing a game on the $1403 \times 1403$ table with $1403^2$ cells. The first one in each turn chooses a cell that didn't select before and draws a vertical line segment from the top to the bottom of the cell. The second person in each turn chooses a cell that didn't select before and draws a horizontal line segment from the left to the right of the cell. After $1403^2$ steps the game will be over. The first person gets points equal to the longest verticals line segment and analogously the second person gets point equal to the longest horizonal line segment. At the end the person who gets the more point will win the game. What will be the result of the game?

There are $2020$ points on the coordinate plane {$A_i = (x_i, y_i):i = 1, ..., 2020$}, satisfying
$$0=x_1<x_2<...<x_{2020}$$
$$0=y_{2020}<y_{2019}<...<y_1$$
Let $O=(0, 0)$ be the origin, $OA_1A_2...A_{2020}$ forms a polygon $C$.
Now, you want to blacken the polygon $C$. Every time you can choose a point $(x,y)$ with $x, y > 0$, and blacken the area {$(x', y'): 0\leq x' \leq x, 0\leq y' \leq y$}. However, you have to pay $xy$ dollars for doing so.
Prove that you could blacken the whole polygon $C$ by using $4|C|$ dollars. Here, $|C|$ stands for the area of the polygon $C$.

Let $ABC$ be a triangle with $AB < AC$ and $\omega$ be a circle through $A$ tangent to both the $B$-excircle and the $C$-excircle. Let $\omega$ intersect lines $AB, AC$ at $X,Y$ respectively and $X,Y$ lie outside of segments $AB, AC$. Let $O$ be the center of $\omega$ and let $OI_C, OI_B$ intersect line $BC$ at $J,K$ respectively. Suppose $KJ = 4$, $KO = 16$ and $OJ = 13$. Find $\frac{[KI_BI_C]}{[JI_BI_C]}$.

Brice is eating bowls of rice. He takes a random amount of time $t_1 \in (0,1)$ minutes to consume his first bowl, and every bowl thereafter takes $t_n = t_{n-1} + r_n$ minutes, where $t_{n-1}$ is the time it took him to eat his previous bowl and $r_n \in (0,1)$ is chosen uniformly and randomly. The probability that it takes Brice at least 12 minutes to eat 5 bowls of rice can be expressed as simplified fraction $\tfrac{m}{n}$. Compute $m+n$.

The probability that the greatest common factor of $a_i-a_j$ and $21$ is $7$ for some positive integers $i $ and $j$, where $1 \le i \ne j \le3 $, can be written in the form $\frac{m}{n}$ , where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Compute $m + n$.
