Arianna and Brianna play a game in which they alternate turns writing numbers on a paper. Before the game begins, a referee randomly selects an integer $N$ with $1 \leq N \leq 2019$, such that $i$ has probability $\frac{i}{1 + 2 + \dots + 2019}$ of being chosen. First, Arianna writes $1$ on the paper. On any move thereafter, the player whose turn it is writes $a+1$ or $2a$, where $a$ is any number on the paper, under the conditions that no number is ever written twice and any number written does not exceed $N$. No number is ever erased. The winner is the person who first writes the number $N$. Assuming both Arianna and Brianna play optimally, the probability that Brianna wins can be expressed as $\frac{m}{n}$ where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Compute $m + n.$ [i]Proposed by Edward Wan[/i]

The infinite sequence of integers $a_1, a_2, \cdots $ is defined recursively as follows: $a_1 = 3$, $a_2 = 7$, and $a_n$ equals the alternating sum $$a_1 - 2a_2 + 3a_3 - 4a_4 + \cdots (-1)^n \cdot (n-1)a_{n-1}$$ for all $n > 2$. Let $a_x$ be the smallest positive multiple of $1090$ appearing in this sequence. Find the remainder of $a_x$ when divided by $113$.

We have four white equilateral triangles of $3$ cm on each side and join them by their sides to obtain a triangular base pyramid. At each edge of the pyramid we mark two red dots that divide it into three equal parts. Number the red dots, so that when you scroll them in the order they were numbered, result a path with the smallest possible perimeter. How much does that path measure?
