2017 Iran MO (2nd Round), 5

There are five smart kids sitting around a round table. Their teacher says: "I gave a few apples to some of you, and none of you have the same amount of apple. Also each of you will know the amount of apple that the person to your left and the person to your right has." The teacher tells the total amount of apples, then asks the kids to guess the difference of the amount of apple that the two kids in front of them have. $a)$ If the total amount of apples is less than $16$, prove that at least one of the kids will guess the difference correctly. $b)$ Prove that the teacher can give the total of $16$ apples such that no one can guess the difference correctly.

2004 Manhattan Mathematical Olympiad, 3

A prison has $2004$ cells, numbered $1$ through $2004$. A jailer, carrying out the terms of a partial amnesty, unlocked every cell. Next he locked every second cell. Then he turned the key in every third cell, locking the opened cells, and unlocking the locked ones. He continued this way, on $n^{\text{th}}$ trip, turning the key in every $n^{\text{th}}$ cell, and he finished his mission after $2004$ trips. How many prisoners were released?
