Jacob and Aaron are playing a game in which Aaron is trying to guess the outcome of an unfair coin which shows heads $\tfrac{2}{3}$ of the time. Aaron randomly guesses ``heads'' $\tfrac{2}{3}$ of the time, and guesses ``tails'' the other $\tfrac{1}{3}$ of the time. If the probability that Aaron guesses correctly is $p$, compute $9000p$.

For a finite non empty set of primes $P$, let $m(P)$ denote the largest possible number of consecutive positive integers, each of which is divisible by at least one member of $P$. (i) Show that $|P|\le m(P)$, with equality if and only if $\min(P)>|P|$. (ii) Show that $m(P)<(|P|+1)(2^{|P|}-1)$. (The number $|P|$ is the size of set $P$) [i]Dan Schwarz, Romania[/i]

One side of an equilateral triangle of height $24$ lies on line $\ell.$ A circle of radius $12$ is tangent to $\ell$ and is externally tangent to the triangle. The area of the region exterior to the triangle and the circle and bounded by the triangle, the circle, and line $\ell$ can be written as $a\sqrt{b} - c\pi,$ where $a,$ $b,$ and $c$ are positive integers and $b$ is not divisible by the square of any prime.

1997 Tournament Of Towns, (555) 5

Each face of a cube is of the same size as each square of a chessboard. The cube is coloured black and white, placed on one of the squares of the chessboard and rolled so that each square of the chessboard is visited exactly once. Can this be done in such a way that the colour of the visited square and the colour of the bottom face of the cube are always the same? (A Shapovalov)
