Two cyclists ride on two intersecting circles. Each of them rides on his own circle at a constant speed. Having left at the same time from one of the points of intersection of the circles and having made one lap each, the cyclists meet again at this point. Prove that there exists a fixed point in the plane, the distances from which to cyclists are the same all the time, regardless of the directions they travel in.

Suppose we have a pack of $2n$ cards, in the order $1, 2, . . . , 2n$. A perfect shuffle of these cards changes the order to $n+1, 1, n+2, 2, . . ., n- 1, 2n, n$ ; i.e., the cards originally in the first $n$ positions have been moved to the places $2, 4, . . . , 2n$, while the remaining $n$ cards, in their original order, fill the odd positions $1, 3, . . . , 2n - 1.$
Suppose we start with the cards in the above order $1, 2, . . . , 2n$ and then successively apply perfect shuffles.
What conditions on the number $n$ are necessary for the cards eventually to return to their original order? Justify your answer.
[hide="Remark"]
Remark. This problem is trivial. Alternatively, it may be required to find the least number of shuffles after which the cards will return to the original order.[/hide]

Determine all integers $ n\geq 2$ having the following property: for any integers $a_1,a_2,\ldots, a_n$ whose sum is not divisible by $n$, there exists an index $1 \leq i \leq n$ such that none of the numbers $$a_i,a_i+a_{i+1},\ldots,a_i+a_{i+1}+\ldots+a_{i+n-1}$$ is divisible by $n$.

A positive integer is written on a blackboard. Players $A$ and $B$ play the following game: in each move one has to choose a proper divisor $m$ of the number $n$ written on the blackboard ($1<m<n$) and replaces $n$ with $n-m$. Player $A$ makes the first move, then players move alternately. The player who can't make a move loses the game. For which starting numbers is there a winning strategy for player $B$?
