In a country there are infinitely many towns and for every pair of towns there is one road connecting them. Initially there are $n$ coin in each city. Every day traveller Hong starts from one town and moves on to another, but if Hong goes from town $A$ to $B$ on the $k$-th day, he has to send $k$ coins from $B$ to $A$, and he can no longer use the road connecting $A$ and $B$. Prove that Hong can't travel for more than $n+2n^\frac{2}{3}$ days.

A team of four students goes to LMT, and each student brings a lunch. However, on the bus, the students’ lunches get mixed up, and during lunch time, each student chooses a random lunch to eat (no two students may eat the same lunch). What is the probability that each student chooses his or her own lunch correctly?

A triangular colony area is divided into four fields of varying size as shown in the figure below shows. The only other thing we know is that the distances $AF$, $FD$, $BF$ and $FE$ have the lengths $5$, $2$, $4$ and $2$ respectively (in $10$s of m). When the lots are distributed, Joar gets to choose first. Which lot should he choose to get the one with the largest area?

The $30$ edges of a regular icosahedron are distinguished by labeling them $1,2,\dots,30.$ How many different ways are there to paint each edge red, white, or blue such that each of the 20 triangular faces of the icosahedron has two edges of the same color and a third edge of a different color?

The sides of a 99-gon are initially colored so that consecutive sides are red, blue, red, blue, $\,\ldots, \,$ red, blue, yellow. We make a sequence of modifications in the coloring, changing the color of one side at a time to one of the three given colors (red, blue, yellow), under the constraint that no two adjacent sides may be the same color. By making a sequence of such modifications, is it possible to arrive at the coloring in which consecutive sides are red, blue, red, blue, red, blue, $\, \ldots, \,$ red, yellow, blue?

A farmer buys a batch of trees, which he wishes to plant in a square grid. For example, if he had $25$ trees, then he could plant them as shown below. [asy] size(3cm,0); dot((0,0)); dot((0,1)); dot((0,2)); dot((0,3)); dot((0,4)); dot((1,0)); dot((1,1)); dot((1,2)); dot((1,3)); dot((1,4)); dot((2,0)); dot((2,1)); dot((2,2)); dot((2,3)); dot((2,4)); dot((3,0)); dot((3,1)); dot((3,2)); dot((3,3)); dot((3,4)); dot((4,0)); dot((4,1)); dot((4,2)); dot((4,3)); dot((4,4)); [/asy] However, the farmer finds that he cannot plant his trees in a square grid. If he had $20$ more trees, or if he had $39$ fewer trees, then he could plant his trees in a square grid. How many trees did the farmer buy?

From each of $K,L,$ and $M$ drop two perpendiculars to the other two sides of the triangle; e.g., drop perpendiculars from $K$ to sides $BC$ and $CA,$ etc. The resulting $6$ perpendiculars intersect at points $Q,S,$ and $T$ as in the figure to form a hexagon $KQLSMT$ inside triangle $ABC.$ Prove that the area of this hexagon $KQLSMT$ is half of the area of the original triangle $ABC.$ [asy] /* Geogebra to Asymptote conversion, documentation at artofproblemsolving.com/Wiki, go to User:Azjps/geogebra; diagram by adihaya*/ import graph; size(10cm); real labelscalefactor = 0.5; /* changes label-to-point distance */ pen dps = linewidth(0.7) + fontsize(10); defaultpen(dps); /* default pen style */ pen dotstyle = black; /* point style */ real xmin = 11.888712276357234, xmax = 17.841346447833423, ymin = 10.61620970860601, ymax = 15.470685507068502; /* image dimensions */ pen zzttqq = rgb(0.6,0.2,0.); pen qqwuqq = rgb(0.,0.39215686274509803,0.); pair A = (12.488234161849352,12.833838721895551), B = (16.50823416184936,15.093838721895553), C = (16.28823416184936,11.353838721895551), K = (14.498234161849355,13.963838721895552), L = (16.39823416184936,13.223838721895552), M = (14.388234161849356,12.093838721895551), D = (13.615830174638527,13.467760858438725), F = (15.75135711740064,11.562938202365055), G = (15.625830174638523,14.597760858438724), H = (16.435061748056253,13.849907687412797), T = (14.02296781802369,12.74356027153236), Q = (16.032967818023693,13.873560271532357), O = (16.325061748056253,11.979907687412794); draw(A--B--C--cycle, zzttqq); draw((13.426050287639166,13.361068683160477)--(13.532742462917415,13.171288796161116)--(13.722522349916774,13.277980971439364)--D--cycle, qqwuqq); draw((14.054227993863618,12.223925334689998)--(14.133240861538676,12.426796211152979)--(13.930369985075695,12.505809078828037)--(13.851357117400637,12.302938202365056)--cycle, qqwuqq); draw((16.337846386707046,12.19724654447628)--(16.12050752964356,12.210031183127075)--(16.107722890992765,11.992692326063588)--O--cycle, qqwuqq); draw((15.830369985075697,11.765809078828037)--(15.627499108612716,11.844821946503092)--(15.54848624093766,11.641951070040111)--F--cycle, qqwuqq); draw((15.436050287639164,14.491068683160476)--(15.542742462917412,14.301288796161115)--(15.73252234991677,14.407980971439365)--G--cycle, qqwuqq); draw((16.217722890992764,13.86269232606359)--(16.20493825234197,13.645353469000101)--(16.42227710940546,13.63256883034931)--H--cycle, qqwuqq); Label laxis; laxis.p = fontsize(10); xaxis(xmin, xmax, Ticks(laxis, Step = 1., Size = 2, NoZero),EndArrow(6), above = true); yaxis(ymin, ymax, Ticks(laxis, Step = 1., Size = 2, NoZero),EndArrow(6), above = true); /* draws axes; NoZero hides '0' label */ /* draw figures */ draw(A--B, zzttqq); draw(B--C, zzttqq); draw(C--A, zzttqq); draw(M--D); draw(K--(13.851357117400637,12.302938202365056)); draw(F--L); draw(L--G); draw(K--H); draw(M--O); /* dots and labels */ dot(A,dotstyle); label("$A$", (12.52502834296331,12.93568440300881), NE * labelscalefactor); dot(B,dotstyle); label("$B$", (16.548187989892043,15.193580123223922), NE * labelscalefactor); dot(C,dotstyle); label("$C$", (16.332661580235147,11.457789022504372), NE * labelscalefactor); dot(K,linewidth(3.pt) + dotstyle); label("$K$", (14.536608166427676,14.02357961365791), NE * labelscalefactor); dot(L,linewidth(3.pt) + dotstyle); label("$L$", (16.43529320388129,13.28463192340569), NE * labelscalefactor); dot(M,linewidth(3.pt) + dotstyle); label("$M$", (14.433976542781535,12.155684063298134), NE * labelscalefactor); dot(D,linewidth(3.pt) + dotstyle); dot((13.851357117400637,12.302938202365056),linewidth(3.pt) + dotstyle); dot(F,linewidth(3.pt) + dotstyle); dot(G,linewidth(3.pt) + dotstyle); dot(H,linewidth(3.pt) + dotstyle); dot((15.922967818023695,12.003560271532354),linewidth(3.pt) + dotstyle); label("$S$", (15.96318773510904,12.063315602016607), NE * labelscalefactor); dot(T,linewidth(3.pt) + dotstyle); label("$T$", (14.064502697655428,12.802263292268826), NE * labelscalefactor); dot(Q,linewidth(3.pt) + dotstyle); label("$Q$", (16.076082521119794,13.931211152376383), NE * labelscalefactor); dot(O,linewidth(3.pt) + dotstyle); clip((xmin,ymin)--(xmin,ymax)--(xmax,ymax)--(xmax,ymin)--cycle); /* end of picture */[/asy]
