$p,q,r$ are real numbers satisfying \[\frac{(p+q)(q+r)(r+p)}{pqr} = 24\] \[\frac{(p-2q)(q-2r)(r-2p)}{pqr} = 10.\] Given that $\frac{p}{q} + \frac{q}{r} + \frac{r}{p}$ can be expressed in the form $\frac{m}{n}$, where $m,n$ are relatively prime positive integers, compute $m+n$.

A table consisting of $5$ columns and $32$ rows, which are filled with zero and one numbers, are "varied", if no two lines are filled in the same way.\\
On the exterior of a cylinder, a table with $32$ rows and $16$ columns is constructed. Is it possible to fill the numbers cells of the table with numbers zero and one, such that any five consecutive columns, table $32\times5$ created by these columns, is a varied one?

Vertices and Edges of a regular $n$-gon are numbered $1,2,\dots,n$ clockwise such that edge $i$ lies between vertices $i,i+1 \mod n$. Now non-negative integers $(e_1,e_2,\dots,e_n)$ are assigned to corresponding edges and non-negative integers $(k_1,k_2,\dots,k_n)$ are assigned to corresponding vertices such that:
$i$) $(e_1,e_2,\dots,e_n)$ is a permutation of $(k_1,k_2,\dots,k_n)$.

Consider the following operation on positive real numbers written on a blackboard:
Choose a number $ r$ written on the blackboard, erase that number, and then write a pair of positive real numbers $ a$ and $ b$ satisfying the condition $ 2 r^2 \equal{} ab$ on the board.
Assume that you start out with just one positive real number $ r$ on the blackboard, and apply this operation $ k^2 \minus{} 1$ times to end up with $ k^2$ positive real numbers, not necessarily distinct. Show that there exists a number on the board which does not exceed kr.

It is known that circle $\Gamma_1(O_1)$ has center at $O_1$, circle $\Gamma_2(O_2)$ has center at $O_2$, and both intersect at points $C$ and $D$. It is also known that points $P$ and $Q$ lie on circles $\Gamma_1(O_1)$ and $\Gamma_2(O_2)$, respectively. ).

Let $a_1, a_2,\cdots , a_n$ and $b_1, b_2,\cdots , b_n$ be (not necessarily distinct) positive integers. We continue the sequences as follows: For every $i>n$, $a_i$ is the smallest positive integer which is not among $b_1, b_2,\cdots , b_{i-1}$, and $b_i$ is the smallest positive integer which is not among $a_1, a_2,\cdots , a_{i-1}$. Prove that there exists $N$ such that for every $i>N$ we have $a_i=b_i$ or for every $i>N$ we have $a_{i+1}=a_i$.

A strange calculator has only two buttons with positive itegers, each of them consisting of two digits. It displays the number 1 at the beginning. Whenever a button with number $N$ is pressed, the calculator replaces the displayed number $X$ with the number $X\cdot N$ or $X+N$. Multiplication and addition alternate, multiplication is the first. (For example,if the number 10 is on the 1st button, the number 20 is on the 2nd button, and we consecutively press the 1st, 2nd, 1st and 1st button, we get the results $1\cdot 10=10$, $10+20=30$, $30\cdot 10=300$, and $300+10=310$.) Decide whether there exist particular values of the two-digit nubers on the buttons such that one can display infinitely many numbers (without cleaning the display, i.e. you must keep going and get infinitel many numbers) ending with
(a) $2015$,
(b) $5813$.

$3$ builders are scheduled to build a house in $60$ days. However, they suffer from a bout of procrastination and thus do nothing for the first $50$ days. Panicked, they realize in order to build the house on time, they must hire more workers [i]and[/i] work twice as fast as they would have originally. If the new workers they hire also will work at the doubled rate, how many new workers will they need to hire? Assume each builder works at the same rate as the others and they do not get in each other's way.

The vertices of a regular nonagon are colored such that $1)$ adjacent vertices are different colors and $2)$ if $3$ vertices form an equilateral triangle, they are all different colors. Let $m$ be the minimum number of colors needed for a valid coloring, and n be the total number of colorings using $m$ colors. Determine $mn$. (Assume each vertex is distinguishable.)
