2014 Macedonia National Olympiad, 5

From an equilateral triangle with side 2014 we cut off another equilateral triangle with side 214, such that both triangles have one common vertex and two of the side of the smaller triangles lie on two of the side of the bigger triangle. Is it possible to cover this figure with figures in the picture without overlapping (rotation is allowed) if all figures are made of equilateral triangles with side 1? Explain the answer!

In the Martian language every finite sequence of letters of the Latin alphabet letters is a word. The publisher “Martian Words” makes a collection of all words in many volumes. In the first volume there are only one-letter words, in the second, two-letter words, etc., and the numeration of the words in each of the volumes continues the numeration of the previous volume. Find the word whose numeration is equal to the sum of numerations of the words Prague, Olympiad, Mathematics.

Triangles $ABC$ and $DEF$ have pairwise parallel sides: $EF \| BC, FD \| CA$, and $DE \| AB$. The line $m_A$ is the reflection of $EF$ through $BC$, similarly $m_B$ is the reflection of $FD$ through $CA$, and $m_C$ the reflection of $DE$ through $AB$.

Each morning, she mines at least $1$ and at most $10$ diamonds and adds them to her treasure chest (which already contains some diamonds). Every night she counts the total number of diamonds in her collection and finds that it is divisible by either $22$ or $25$. Show that she miscounted.

There are $5$ chocolateflavored beans that Ron likes and $6$ beans flavored like earwax, which he finds disgusting. All beans look the same, and Hermione tells Ron that a chocolate bean always has another chocolate bean next to it. What is the smallest number of beans that Ron must taste to guarantee he finds a chocolate one? [b]p3.[/b] There are $101$ pirates on a pirate ship: the captain and $100$ crew. Each pirate, including the captain, starts with $1$ gold coin. The captain makes proposals for redistributing the coins, and the crew vote on these proposals. The captain does not vote. For every proposal, each crew member greedily votes “yes” if he gains coins as a result of the proposal, “no” if he loses coins, and passes otherwise. If strictly more crew members vote “yes” than “no,” the proposal takes effect. The captain can make any number of proposals, one after the other. What is the largest number of coins the captain can accumulate? [b]p4.[/b] There are $100$ food trucks in a circle and $10$ gnomes who sample their menus.

All gnomes move at the same time. After some number of courses, each food truck had served at least one gnome. Show that at least one gnome ate at some food truck twice.
