The integers $1, 2, 3, 4, 5$ and $6$ are written on a board. You can perform the following kind of move: select two of the numbers, say $a$ and $b$, such that $4a - 2b$ is nonnegative; erase $a$ and $b$, then write down $4a - 2b$ on the board (hence replacing two of the numbers by just one). Continue performing such moves until only one number remains on the board. What is the smallest possible positive value of this last remaining number?

Fix an integer $n \ge 2$. A fairy chess piece [i]leopard [/i] may move one cell up, or one cell to the right, or one cell diagonally down-left. A leopard is placed onto some cell of a $3n \times 3n$ chequer board. The leopard makes several moves, never visiting a cell twice, and comes back to the starting cell. Determine the largest possible number of moves the leopard could have made.

Let $n$ be a given positive integer. Say that a set $K$ of points with integer coordinates in the plane is connected if for every pair of points $R, S\in K$, there exists a positive integer $\ell$ and a sequence $R=T_0,T_1, T_2,\ldots ,T_{\ell}=S$ of points in $K$, where each $T_i$ is distance $1$ away from $T_{i+1}$. For such a set $K$, we define the set of vectors
\[\Delta(K)=\{\overrightarrow{RS}\mid R, S\in K\}\]
What is the maximum value of $|\Delta(K)|$ over all connected sets $K$ of $2n+1$ points with integer coordinates in the plane?

All the numbers $2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7$ are assigned to the six faces of a cube, one number to each face. For each of the eight vertices of the cube, a product of three numbers is computed, where the three numbers are the numbers assigned to the three faces that include that vertex. What is the greatest possible value of the sum of these eight products?

There are $6$ points on the plane such that no three of them are collinear. It's known that between every $4$ points of them, there exists a point that it's power with respect to the circle passing through the other three points is a constant value $k$.(Power of a point in the interior of a circle has a negative value.)
Prove that $k=0$ and all $6$ points lie on a circle.

A [i]calendar[/i] is a (finite) rectangular grid. A calendar is [i]valid[/i] if it satisfies the following conditions:
(i) Each square of the calendar is colored white or red, and there are exactly 10 red squares.
(ii) Suppose that there are $N$ columns of squares in the calendar. Then if we fill in the numbers $1,2,\ldots$ from the top row to the bottom row, and within each row from left to right, there do not exist $N$ consecutive numbers such that the squares they are in are all white.
(iii) Suppose that there are $M$ rows of squares in the calendar. Then if we fill in the numbers $1,2,\ldots$ from the left-most column to the right-most column, and within each column from bottom to top, there do not exist $M$ consecutive numbers such that the squares they are in are all white. In other words, if we rotate the calendar clockwise by $90^{\circ}$, the resulting calendar still satisfies (ii).
How many different kinds of valid calendars are there?
(Remark: During the actual exam, the contestants were confused about what counts as different calendars. So although this was not in the actual exam, I would like to specify that two calendars are considered different if they have different side lengths or if the $10$ red squares are at different locations.)
