The set of integers is coloured in $100$ colours in such a way that all the colours are used and the following is true. For any choice of intervals $[a, b]$ and $[c,d]$ of equal length and with integral endpoints, if a and c as well as $b$ and $d$, respectively, have the same colour, then the whole intervals $[a, b]$ and $[c,d]$ are identically coloured in that, for any integer $x$, $0 \le x \le b - a$, the numbers $a + x$ and $c + x$ are of the same colour.

The circle $\omega_1$ with diameter $[AB]$ and the circle $\omega_2$ with center $A$ intersects at points $C$ and $D$. Let $E$ be a point on the circle $\omega_2$, which is outside $\omega_1$ and at the same side as $C$ with respect to the line $AB$. Let the second point of intersection of the line $BE$ with $\omega_2$ be $F$.

Leo the fox has a $5$ by $5$ checkerboard grid with alternating red and black squares. He fills in the grid with the numbers $1, 2, 3, \dots, 25$ such that any two consecutive numbers are in adjacent squares (sharing a side) and each number is used exactly once. He then computes the sum of the numbers in the $13$ squares that are the same color as the center square. Compute the maximum possible sum Leo can obtain.

On a $1\times n$ board there are $n-1$ separating edges between neighbouring cells. Initially, none of the edges contain matches. During a move of size $0 < k < n$ a player chooses a $1\times k$ sub-board which contains no matches inside, and places a matchstick on all of the separating edges bordering the sub-board that don’t already have one. A move is considered legal if at least one matchstick can be placed and if either $k = 1$ or $k{}$ is divisible by 4. Two players take turns making moves, the player in turn must choose one of the available legal moves of the largest size $0 < k < n$ and play it. If someone does not have a legal move, the game ends and that player loses. [i]Beat the organisers twice in a row in this game! First the organisers determine the value of $n{}$, then you get to choose whether you want to play as the first or the second player.[/i]

Given a $15\times 15$ chessboard. We draw a closed broken line without self-intersections such that every edge of the broken line is a segment joining the centers of two adjacent cells of the chessboard. If this broken line is symmetric with respect to a diagonal of the chessboard, then show that the length of the broken line is $\leq 200$.

The numbers $1, 2,..., 2023$ are written on the board in this order. We can repeatedly perform the following operation with them: We select any odd number of consecutively written numbers and write these numbers in reverse order. How many different orders of these $2023$ numbers can we get? [i]Example[/i]: If we start with only the numbers $1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6$, we can perform the following steps $$1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 \to 3, 2, 1,4, 5, 6 \to 3, 6, 5, 4, 1, 2 \to 3, 6, 1, 4, 5, 2 \to ...$$

Three planets revolve about a star in coplanar circular orbits with the star at the center. All planets revolve in the same direction, each at a constant speed, and the periods of their orbits are 60, 84, and 140 years. The positions of the star and all three planets are currently collinear. They will next be collinear after $n$ years. Find $n$.
