There are $30$ bags and there are $100$ similar coins in each bag (coins in each bag are similar, coins of different bags can be different). The weight of each coin is an one digit number in grams. We have a digital scale which can weigh at most $999$ grams in each weighing. Using this scale, we want to find the weight of coins of each bag. [b](a)[/b] Show that this operation is possible by $10$ times of weighing, and [b](b)[/b] It's not possible by $9$ times of weighing.

Three gamblers play against each other for money. They each start by placing a pile of one-krone coins on the table, and from this point on the total number of coins on the table does not change. The ratio between the number of coins they start with is $6 : 5 : 4$. At the end of the game, the ratio of the number of coins they have is $7 : 6 : 5$ in some order. At the end of the game, one of the gamblers has three coins more than at the beginning. How many coins does this gambler have at the end?

A positive integer $n>1$ is called beautiful if $n$ can be written in one and only one way as $n=a_1+a_2+\cdots+a_k=a_1 \cdot a_2 \cdots a_k$ for some positive integers $a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_k$, where $k>1$ and $a_1 \geq a_2 \geq \cdots \geq a_k$. (For example 6 is beautiful since $6=3 \cdot 2 \cdot 1=3+2+1$, and this is unique. But 8 is not beautiful since $8=4+2+1+1=4 \cdot 2 \cdot 1 \cdot 1$ as well as $8=2+2+2+1+1=2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 1 \cdot 1$, so uniqueness is lost.) Find the largest beautiful number less than 100.
