A function $f:\{1,2, \ldots, n\} \to \{1, \ldots, m\}$ is [i]multiplication-preserving[/i] if $f(i)f(j) = f(ij)$ for all $1 \le i \le j \le ij \le n$, and [i]injective[/i] if $f(i) = f(j)$ only when $i = j$. For $n = 9, m = 88$, the number of injective, multiplication-preserving functions is $N$. Find the sum of the prime factors of $N$, including multiplicity. (For example, if $N = 12$, the answer would be $2 + 2 + 3 = 7$.)

Suppose $N$ is any positive integer. Add the digits of $N$ to obtain a smaller integer. Repeat this process of digit-addition till you get a single digit numbem. Find the number of positive integers $N \le 1000$, such that the final single-digit number $n$ is equal to $5$. Example: $N = 563\to (5 + 6 + 3) = 14 \to(1 + 4) = 5$ will be counted as one such integer.

In Oddland there are stamps with values of $1$ cent, $3$ cents, $5$ cents, etc., each for odd number there is exactly one stamp type. Oddland Post dictates: For two different values on a letter must be the number of stamps of the lower one value must be at least as large as the number of tokens of the higher value. In Squareland, on the other hand, there are stamps with values of $1$ cent, $4$ cents, $9$ cents, etc. there is exactly one stamp type for each square number. Brands can be found in Squareland can be combined as required without further regulations. Prove for every positive integer $n$: there are the same number in the two countries possibilities to send a letter with stamps worth a total of $n$ cents. It makes no difference if you have the same stamps on arrange a letter differently. (Stephan Wagner)

Convex equiangular hexagon $ABCDEF$ has $AB=CD=EF=1$ and $BC = DE = FA = 4$. Congruent and pairwise externally tangent circles $\gamma_1$, $\gamma_2$, and $\gamma_3$ are drawn such that $\gamma_1$ is tangent to side $\overline{AB}$ and side $\overline{BC}$, $\gamma_2$ is tangent to side $\overline{CD}$ and side $\overline{DE}$, and $\gamma_3$ is tangent to side $\overline{EF}$ and side $\overline{FA}$.

Cynthia loves Pokemon and she wants to catch them all. In Victory Road, there are a total of $80$ Pokemon. Cynthia wants to catch as many of them as possible. However, she cannot catch any two Pokemon that are enemies with each other. After exploring around for a while, she makes the following two observations: 1. Every Pokemon in Victory Road is enemies with exactly two other Pokemon. 2. Due to her inability to catch Pokemon that are enemies with one another, the maximum number of the Pokemon she can catch is equal to $n$. What is the sum of all possible values of $n$?

While working with some data for the Iowa City Hospital, James got up to get a drink of water. When he returned, his computer displayed the “blue screen of death” (it had crashed). While rebooting his computer, James remembered that he was nearly done with his calculations since the last time he saved his data. He also kicked himself for not saving before he got up from his desk. He had computed three positive integers $a$, $b$, and $c$, and recalled that their product is $24$, but he didn’t remember the values of the three integers themselves. What he really needed was their sum. He knows that the sum is an even two-digit integer less than $25$ with fewer than $6$ divisors. Help James by computing $a+b+c$.

Integers are written in the cells of a table $2010 \times 2010$. Adding $1$ to all the numbers in a row or in a column is called a [i]move[/i]. We say that a table is [i]equilibrium[/i] if one can obtain after finitely many moves a table in which all the numbers are equal. [list=a] [*]Find the largest positive integer $n$, for which there exists an [i]equilibrium[/i] table containing the numbers $2^0, 2^1, \ldots , 2^n$. [*] For this $n$, find the maximal number that may be contained in such a table. [/list]
