The table below displays some of the results of last summer's Frostbite Falls Fishing Festival, showing how many contestants caught $n$ fish for various values of $n$.
\[ \begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|} \hline n & 0 & 1 & 2 & 3 & \dots & 13 & 14 & 15 \\ \hline \text{number of contestants who caught} \ n \ \text{fish} & 9 & 5 & 7 & 23 & \dots & 5 & 2 & 1 \\ \hline \end{array} \]
In the newspaper story covering the event, it was reported that
(a) the winner caught 15 fish;
(b) those who caught 3 or more fish averaged 6 fish each;
(c) those who caught 12 or fewer fish averaged 5 fish each.
What was the total number of fish caught during the festival?

2018 Centroamerican and Caribbean Math Olympiad, 6
A dance with 2018 couples takes place in Havana. For the dance, 2018 distinct points labeled $0, 1,\ldots, 2017$ are marked in a circumference and each couple is placed on a different point. For $i\geq1$, let $s_i=i\ (\textrm{mod}\ 2018)$ and $r_i=2i\ (\textrm{mod}\ 2018)$. The dance begins at minute $0$. On the $i$-th minute, the couple at point $s_i$ (if there's any) moves to point $r_i$, the couple on point $r_i$ (if there's any) drops out, and the dance continues with the remaining couples. The dance ends after $2018^2$ minutes. Determine how many couples remain at the end.
Note: If $r_i=s_i$, the couple on $s_i$ stays there and does not drop out.

2008 Cuba MO, 5
There is a board of $2008\times 2008$ and $2008$ pieces, one in each row and each column of the board. It is allowed to do one of the following movements:
a) Take two steps to the right and $10$ up.
b) Take two steps to the right and $6$ steps down.
c) Take two steps to the left and $6$ steps up.
d) Take two steps to the left and $10$ steps down.
If the path down cannot be completed, it is skipped to the upper part along the same column and the route continues normally, similarly in the other directions. In each play you will move a checker using any of the allowed operations. Would it be possible that at some point, after a finite number of played, the pieces are located forming a square of side $44$ in the upper left corner of the board and the remaining $72$ are in the last row in the first $72$ boxes?

We say that a polynomial $p$ is respectful if $\forall x, y \in Z$, $y - x$ divides $p(y) - p(x)$, and $\forall x \in Z$, $p(x) \in Z$. We say that a respectful polynomial is disguising if it is nonzero, and all of its non-zero coefficients lie between $0$ and $ 1$, exclusive. Determine $\sum deg(f)\cdot f(2)$, where the sum includes all disguising polynomials $f$ of degree at most $5$.

2015 USAMTS Problems, 1
Fill in each space of the grid with either a $0$ or a $1$ so that all $16$ strings of four consecutive numbers across and down are distinct.
You do not need to prove that your answer is the only one possible; you merely need to find an answer that satisfies the constraints above. (Note: In any other USAMTS problem, you need to provide a full proof. Only in this problem is an answer without justification acceptable).

Let $ p$ be the probability that exactly one of the selected divisors is a perfect square. The probability $ p$ can be expressed in the form $ \frac{m}{n}$, where $ m$ and $ n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Find $ m \plus{} n$.
