$n$ students take a test with $m$ questions, where $m,n\ge 2$ are integers. The score given to every question is as such: for a certain question, if $x$ students fails to answer it correctly, then those who answer it correctly scores $x$ points, while those who answer it wrongly scores $0$. The score of a student is the sum of his scores for the $m$ questions. Arrange the scores in descending order $p_1\ge p_2\ge \ldots \ge p_n$. Find the maximum value of $p_1+p_n$.

Suppose that we have $ n \ge 3$ distinct colours. Let $ f(n)$ be the greatest integer with the property that every side and every diagonal of a convex polygon with $ f(n)$ vertices can be coloured with one of $ n$ colours in the following way: (i) At least two colours are used, (ii) any three vertices of the polygon determine either three segments of the same colour or of three different colours. Show that $ f(n) \le (n\minus{}1)^2$ with equality for infintely many values of $ n$.

A circle is divided into $ n $ equal parts. Marceline sets out to assign whole numbers from $ 1 $ to $ n $ to each of these pieces so that the distance between two consecutive numbers is always the same. The numbers $ 887 $, $ 217 $ and $ 1556 $ occupy consecutive positions. How many parts was the circumference divided into?

A chord $AB$ is drawn in a certain circle. The smaller of the two arcs $AB$ corresponds to a central angle of $120^o$. A tangent $p$ to this arc is drawn. Two circles with radii $R$ and $r$ are constructed, touching this smaller arc $AB$ and straight lines $AB$ and $p$. Find the radius of the original circle.

In a soccer tournament each team plays exactly one game with all others. The winner gets $3$ points, the loser gets $0$ and each team gets $1$ point in case of a draw. It is known that $n$ teams ($n \geq 3$) participated in the tournament and the final classification is given by the arithmetical progression of the points, the last team having only 1 point.
