A finite collection of positive real numbers (not necessarily distinct) is [i]balanced [/i]if each number is less than the sum of the others. Find all $m \ge 3$ such that every balanced finite collection of $m$ numbers can be split into three parts with the property that the sum of the numbers in each part is less than the sum of the numbers in the two other parts.

Let $n \ge 3$ be a fixed integer. A game is played by $n$ players sitting in a circle. Initially, each player draws three cards from a shuffled deck of $3n$ cards numbered $1, 2, \dots, 3n$. Then, on each turn, every player simultaneously passes the smallest-numbered card in their hand one place clockwise and the largest-numbered card in their hand one place counterclockwise, while keeping the middle card.
Let $T_r$ denote the configuration after $r$ turns (so $T_0$ is the initial configuration). Show that $T_r$ is eventually periodic with period $n$, and find the smallest integer $m$ for which, regardless of the initial configuration, $T_m=T_{m+n}$.

Al wishes to label the faces of his cube with the integers $2009,2010,$ and $2011,$ with one integer per face, such that adjacent faces (faces that share an edge) have integers that differ by at most $1.$ Determine the number of distinct ways in which he can label the cube, given that two configurations that can be rotated on to each other are considered the same, and that we disregard the orientation in which each number is written on to the cube.

Erica intends to construct a subset $T$ of $S=\{ I,J,K,L,M,N \}$, but if she is unsure about including an element $x$ of $S$ in $T$, she will write $x$ in bold and include it in $T$. For example, $\{ I,J \},$ $\{ J,\mathbf{K},L \},$ and $\{ \mathbf{I},\mathbf{J},\mathbf{M},\mathbf{N} \}$ are valid examples of $T$, while $\{ I,J,\mathbf{J},K \}$ is not. Find the total number of such subsets $T$ that Erica can construct.

There are $n\geq 3$ pupils standing in a circle, and always facing the teacher that stands at the centre of the circle. Each time the teacher whistles, two arbitrary pupils that stand next to each other switch their seats, while the others stands still. Find the least number $M$ such that after $M$ times of whistling, by appropriate switchings, the pupils stand in such a way that any two pupils, initially standing beside each other, will finally also stand beside each other; call these two pupils $ A$ and $ B$, and if $ A$ initially stands on the left side of $ B$ then $ A$ will finally stand on the right side of $ B$.
