Given $n$ chairs around a circle which are marked with numbers from 1 to $n$ .There are $k$, $k \leq 4 \cdot n$ students sitting on those chairs .Two students are called neighbours if there is no student sitting between them. Between two neighbours students ,there are at less 3 chairs. Find the number of choices of $k$ chairs so that $k$ students can sit on those and the condition is satisfied.

Coins are placed in some squares on a $n\times n$ board. Each coin can be moved towards the square symmetrical with respect to either of the two diagonals, as long as that square is empty. The initial coin setup is said to be [i]good [/i], if any coin can make the first move. (a) Determine the maximum number of coins $M$ that can be placed on the $n\times n$ board, such that the configuration is good. (b) Calculate the total number of good configurations that have exactly $M$ coins.

On a round table, $n$ bowls are arranged in a circle. Anja walks around the table clockwise, placing marbles in the bowls according to the following rule: She places a marble in any first bowl, then goes one bowl further and puts a marble in there. Then she goes two shells before putting another marble, then she goes three shells, etc. If there is at least one marble in each shell, she stops. For which $n$ does this occur?

Let $\Gamma$ be a circle of radius $1$ centered at $O$. A circle $\Omega$ is said to be \emph{friendly} if there exist distinct circles $\omega_1$, $\omega_2$, $\ldots$, $\omega_{2020}$, such that for all $1\le i\le2020$, $\omega_i$ is tangent to $\Gamma$, $\Omega$, and $\omega_{i+1}$. (Here, $\omega_{2021} = \omega_1$.) For each point $P$ in the plane, let $f(P)$ denote the sum of the areas of all friendly circles centered at $P$. If $A$ and $B$ are points such that $OA=\frac12$ and $OB=\frac13$, determine $f(A)-f(B)$. [i]Proposed by Michael Ren.[/i]

Kelvin the Frog was bored in math class one day, so he wrote all ordered triples $(a, b, c)$ of positive integers such that $abc=2310$ on a sheet of paper. Find the sum of all the integers he wrote down. In other words, compute $$\sum_{\stackrel{abc=2310}{a,b,c\in \mathbb{N}}} (a+b+c),$$ where $\mathbb{N}$ denotes the positive integers.

Paula the painter and her two helpers each paint at constant, but different, rates. They always start at $\text{8:00 AM}$, and all three always take the same amount of time to eat lunch. On Monday the three of them painted $50\%$ of a house, quitting at $\text{4:00 PM}$. On Tuesday, when Paula wasn't there, the two helpers painted only $24\%$ of the house and quit at $\text{2:12 PM}$. On Wednesday Paula worked by herself and finished the house by working until $\text{7:12 PM}$. How long, in minutes, was each day's lunch break? $ \textbf{(A)}\ 30 \qquad\textbf{(B)}\ 36 \qquad\textbf{(C)}\ 42 \qquad\textbf{(D)}\ 48 \qquad\textbf{(E)}\ 60 $

A cue ball is shot at a $45$ degree angle from the upper right corner of a billiard table with dimensions $4\text{ ft}$ by $5\text{ ft}$, as shown. How many times does the ball bounce before hitting another corner? Assume that when the ball bounces, its path is perfectly reflected. The final impact in the corner does not count as a bounce.

Let $ABC$ be a scalene triangle. The incircle is tangent to lines $BC$, $AC$, and $AB$ at points $D$, $E$, and $F$, respectively, and the $A$-excircle is tangent to lines $BC$, $AC$, and $AB$ at points $D_1$, $E_1$, and $F_1$, respectively. Suppose that lines $AD$, $BE$, and $CF$ are concurrent at point $G$, and suppose that lines $AD_1$, $BE_1$, and $CF_1$ are concurrent at point $G_1$. Let line $GG_1$ intersect the internal bisector of angle $BAC$ at point $X$. Suppose that $AX=1$, $\cos{\angle BAC}=\sqrt{3}-1$, and $BC=8\sqrt[4]{3}$. Then $AB \cdot AC = \frac{j+k\sqrt{m}}{n}$ for positive integers $j$, $k$, $m$, and $n$ such that $\gcd(j,k,n)=1$ and $m$ is not divisible by the square of any integer greater than $1$.

In a country with $5$ distinct cities, there may or may not be a road between each pair of cities. It’s possible to get from any city to any other city through a series of roads, but there is no set of three cities $\{A,B,C\}$ such that there are roads between $A$ and $B$, $B$ and $C$, and $C$ and $A$. How many road systems between the five cities are possible?

Given an $n \times n$ board which is divided into $n^2$ squares of size $1 \times 1$, all of which are white. Then, Aqua selects several squares from this board and colors them black. Ruby then places exactly one $1\times 2$ domino on the board, so that the domino covers exactly two squares on the board. Ruby can rotate the domino into a $2\times 1$ domino. After Aqua colors, it turns out there are exactly $2024$ ways for Ruby to place a domino on the board so that it covers exactly $1$ black square and $1$ white square. Determine the smallest possible value of $n$ so that Aqua and Ruby can do this. [i]Proposed by Muhammad Afifurrahman, Indonesia [/i]

Allen and Alan play a game. A nonconstant polynomial $P(x,y)$ with real coefficients and a positive integer $d$ greater than the degree of $P$ are known to both Allen and Alan. Alan thinks of a polynomial $Q(x,y)$ with real coefficients and degree at most $d$ and keeps it secret. Allen can make queries of the form $(s,t)$, where $s$ and $t$ are real numbers such that $P(s,t)\neq0$. Alan must respond with the value $Q(s,t)$. Allen's goal is to determine whether $P$ divides $Q$. Find (in terms of $P$ and $d$) the smallest positive integer, $g$, such that Allen can always achieve this goal making no more than $g$ queries.

The numbers $1,\, 2,\, \ldots\, , n^{2}$ are written in the squares of an $n \times n$ board in some order. Initially there is a token on the square labelled with $n^{2}.$ In each step, the token can be moved to any adjacent square (by side). At the beginning, the token is moved to the square labelled with the number $1$ along a path with the minimum number of steps. Then it is moved to the square labelled with $2,$ then to square $3,$ etc, always taking the shortest path, until it returns to the initial square. If the total trip takes $N$ steps, find the smallest and greatest possible values of $N.$
