A ray of light originates from point $A$ and and travels in a plane, being reflected $n$ times between lines $AD$ and $CD$, before striking a point $B$ (which may be on $AD$ or $CD$) perpendicularly and retracing its path to $A$. (At each point of reflection the light makes two equal angles as indicated in the adjoining figure. The figure shows the light path for $n = 3.$) If $\measuredangle CDA = 8^\circ$, what is the largest value $n$ can have?
$\text{(A)} \ 6 \qquad \text{(B)} \ 10 \qquad \text{(C)} \ 38 \qquad \text{(D)} \ 98 \qquad \text{(E)} \ \text{There is no largest value.}$

Joe and Penny play a game. Initially there are $5000$ stones in a pile, and the two players remove stones from the pile by making a sequence of moves. On the $k$-th move, any number of stones between $1$ and $k$ inclusive may be removed. Joe makes the odd-numbered moves and Penny makes the even-numbered moves. The player who removes the very last stone is the winner. Who wins if both players play perfectly?

Initially, Aslı distributes $1000$ balls to $30$ boxes as she wishes. After that, Aslı and Zehra make alternated moves which consists of taking a ball in any wanted box starting with Aslı. One who takes the last ball from any box takes that box to herself. What is the maximum number of boxes can Aslı guarantee to take herself regardless of Zehra's moves?

$10$ cities are connected by one-way air routes in a way so that each city can be reached from any other by several connected flights. Let $n$ be the smallest number of flights needed for a tourist to visit every city and return to the starting city. Clearly $n$ depends on the flight schedule. Find the largest $n$ and the corresponding flight schedule.

Fix an integer $k>2$. Two players, called Ana and Banana, play the following game of numbers. Initially, some integer $n \ge k$ gets written on the blackboard. Then they take moves in turn, with Ana beginning. A player making a move erases the number $m$ just written on the blackboard and replaces it by some number $m'$ with $k \le m' < m$ that is coprime to $m$. The first player who cannot move anymore loses.
An integer $n \ge k $ is called good if Banana has a winning strategy when the initial number is $n$, and bad otherwise.
Consider two integers $n,n' \ge k$ with the property that each prime number $p \le k$ divides $n$ if and only if it divides $n'$. Prove that either both $n$ and $n'$ are good or both are bad.

Let $n$ be a positive integer, and set $S$ be the set of all integers in $\{1,2,\dots,n\}$ which are relatively prime to $n$.
Set $S_1 = S \cap \left(0, \frac n3 \right]$, $S_2 = S \cap \left( \frac n3, \frac {2n}3 \right]$, $S_3 = S \cap \left( \frac{2n}{3}, n \right]$.
If the cardinality of $S$ is a multiple of $3$, prove that $S_1$, $S_2$, $S_3$ have the same cardinality.

Jerry and Hannah Kubik live in Jupiter Falls with their five children. Jerry works as a Renewable Energy Engineer for the Southern Company, and Hannah runs a lab at Jupiter Falls University where she researches biomass (renewable fuel) conversion rates. Michael is their oldest child, and Wendy their oldest daughter. Tony is the youngest child. Twins Joshua and Alexis are $12$ years old.
When the Kubiks went on vacation to San Diego last year, they spent a day at the San Diego Zoo. Single day passes cost $\$33$ for adults (Jerry and Hannah), $\$22$ for children (Michael is still young enough to get the children's rate), and family memberships (which allow the whole family in at once) cost $\$120$. How many dollars did the family save by buying a family pass over buying single day passes for every member of the family?
