Japanese businessman Rui lives in America and makes a living from trading cows. On Black Thursday he was selling his cows for $2000$ dollars each (the cows were of the same price), but after the financial crash there were huge fluctuations in the market and Rui was forced to follow them with his pricing. Every day he doubled, halved, multiplied by five or divided by five the price from the previous day (even if it meant he had to give change in cents). At the same time he managed to follow the Japanese superstition, so that the integer part of the price in dollars never started with digit $4$. On the day when Billy visited him to buy some cows the price of each cow was $80$ dollars. What is the minimal number of days that could have passed since Black Thursday by then?

Let $n$ be a positive integer. We start with $n$ piles of pebbles, each initially containing a single pebble. One can perform moves of the following form: choose two piles, take an equal number of pebbles from each pile and form a new pile out of these pebbles. Find (in terms of $n$) the smallest number of nonempty piles that one can obtain by performing a finite sequence of moves of this form.

Let $n$ be the answer to this problem. Box $B$ initially contains n balls, and Box $A$ contains half as many balls as Box $B$. After $80$ balls are moved from Box $A$ to Box $B$, the ratio of balls in Box $A$ to Box $B$ is now $\frac{p}{q}$ , where $p$, $q$ are positive integers with gcd$(p, q) = 1$. Find $100p + q$.

A circular game board is divided into $n \ge 3$ sectors. Each sector is either empty or occupied by a marker. In each step one chooses an occupied sector, removes its marker and then switches each of the two adjacent sectors from occupied to empty or vice-versa. Starting with a single occupied sector, for which $n$ is it possible to end up with all empty sectors after finitely many steps?

For a distributive lattice $ L$, consider the following two statements:
(A) Every ideal of $ L$ is the kernel of at least two different homomorphisms.
(B) $ L$ contains no maximal ideal.
Which one of these statements implies the other?
(Every homomorphism $ \varphi$ of $ L$ induces an equivalence relation on $ L$: $ a \sim b$ if and only if $ a \varphi\equal{}b \varphi$. We do not consider two homomorphisms different if they imply the same equivalence relation.)

Let $ l_i,$ $ i \equal{} 1,2,3$ be three non-collinear straight lines in the plane, which build a triangle, and $ f_i$ the axial reflections in $ l_i$. Prove that for each point $ P$ in the plane there exists finite interconnections (compositions) of the reflections of $ f_i$ which carries $ P$ into the triangle built by the straight lines $ l_i,$ i.e. maps that point to a point interior to the triangle.

Some cards each have a pair of numbers written on them. There is just one card for each pair $(a,b)$ with $1 \leq a < b \leq 2003$. Two players play the following game. Each removes a card in turn and writes the product $ab$ of its numbers on the blackboard. The first player who causes the greatest common divisor of the numbers on the blackboard to fall to $1$ loses. Which player has a winning strategy?
