Suppse that $n\geq 2$ and $0<x_1<x_2<...<x_n$ are integer numbers. We denote that :\[ S_k=\sum_{A\subset \{x_1,x_2,...,x_n\}} \frac{1}{\prod_{a\in A}a} , k=1,2,...,n. \] (where $A$ is a non-empty subset).

The exchange rate in a Funny-Money machine is $s$ McLoonies for a Loonie or $\frac{1}{s}$ Loonies for a McLoonie, where $s$ is a positive real number. The number of coins returned is rounded off to the nearest integer. If it is exactly in between two integers, then it is rounded up to the greater integer. $(a)$ Is it possible to achieve a one-time gain by changing some Loonies into McLoonies and changing all the McLoonies back to Loonies? $(b)$ Assuming that the answer to $(a)$ is "yes", is it possible to achieve multiple gains by repeating this procedure, changing all the coins in hand and back again each time?

a) The fields of the square table $4\times 4$ are filled with the "+" or "-" signs. You are allowed to change the signs simultaneously in the whole row, column, or diagonal to the opposite sign. That means, for example, that You can change the sign in the corner square, because it makes a diagonal itself. Prove that you will never manage to obtain a table containing pluses only. b) The fields of the square table $8\times 8$ are filled with the "+" or signs except one non-corner field with "-". You are allowed to change the signs simultaneously in the whole row, column, or diagonal to the opposite sign. That means, for example, that You can change the sign in the corner field, because it makes a diagonal itself. Prove that you will never manage to obtain a table containing pluses only.

It is known that $ \bullet$ if we double the white balls, the probability of drawing one red ball is $\dfrac 1{25}$ less than the probability of drawing one red ball at the beginning, and $ \bullet$ if we remove all red balls, the probability of drawing one white ball is $\dfrac 1{16}$ more than the probability of drawing one white ball at the beginning.
