Let $n$ be the answer to this problem. Suppose square $ABCD$ has side-length $3$. Then, congruent non-overlapping squares $EHGF$ and $IHJK$ of side-length $\frac{n}{6}$ are drawn such that $A$,$C$, and $H$ are collinear, $E$ lies on $BC$ and $I$ lies on $CD$. Given that $AJG$ is an equilateral triangle, then the area of $AJG$ is $a + b\sqrt{c}$, where $a$, $b$, $c$ are positive integers and $c$ is not divisible by the square of any prime. Find $a + b + c$.

In a social network with a fixed finite setback of users, each user had a fixed set of [i]followers[/i] among the other users. Each user has an initial positive integer rating (not necessarily the same for all users). Every midnight, the rating of every user increases by the sum of the ratings that his followers had just before midnight.
Let $m$ be a positive integer. A hacker, who is not a user of the social network, wants all the users to have ratings divisible by $m$. Every day, he can either choose a user and increase his rating by 1, or do nothing. Prove that the hacker can achieve his goal after some number of days.

Peter marks several cells on a $5\times 5$ board. Basil wins if he can cover all marked cells with three-cell corners. The corners must be inside the board and not overlap. What is the least number of cells Peter should mark to prevent Basil from winning? (Cells of the corners must coincide with the cells of the board).

Davi and George are taking a city tour through Fortaleza, with Davi initially leading. Fortaleza is organized like an $n \times n$ grid. They start in one of the grid's squares and can move from one square to another adjacent square via a street (for each pair of neighboring squares on the grid, there is a street connecting them). Some streets are dangerous. If Davi or George pass through a dangerous street, they get scared and swap who is leading the city tour. Their goal is to pass through every block of Fortaleza exactly once. However, if the city tour ends with George in command, the entire world becomes unemployed and everyone starves to death. Given that there is at least one street that is not dangerous, prove that Davi and George can achieve their goal without everyone dying of hunger.

Let $P(x) = x^2 - 3x - 7$, and let $Q(x)$ and $R(x)$ be two quadratic polynomials also with the coefficient of $x^2$ equal to $1$. David computes each of the three sums $P + Q$, $P + R$, and $Q + R$ and is surprised to find that each pair of these sums has a common root, and these three common roots are distinct. If $Q(0) = 2$, then $R(0) = \dfrac mn$, where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Find $m+n$.
