A male volcano is in the shape of a hollow cone with the point side up, but with everything above a height of 6 meters removed. The resulting shape has a bottom radius of 10 meters and a top radius of 7 meters, with a height of 6 meters. He sat above his bay, watching all the couples play. His lava grew and grew until he was half full of lava. Then, he erupted, lowering the height of the lava to 2 meters. What fraction of the lava remained in the volcano? [i]Proposed by Matthew Weiss

We play a game of musical chairs with $n$ chairs numbered $1$ to $n$. You attach $n$ leaves, numbered $1$ to $n$, to the chairs in such a way that the number on a leaf does not match the number on the chair it is attached to. One player sits on each chair. Every time you clap, each player looks at the number on the leaf attached to his current seat and moves to sit on the seat with that number. Prove that, for any $m$ that is not a prime power with$ 1 < m \leq n$, it is possible to attach the leaves to the seats in such a way that after $m$ claps everyone has returned to the chair they started on for the first time.

There are $2022$ equally spaced points on a circular track $\gamma$ of circumference $2022$. The points are labeled $A_1, A_2, \ldots, A_{2022}$ in some order, each label used once. Initially, Bunbun the Bunny begins at $A_1$. She hops along $\gamma$ from $A_1$ to $A_2$, then from $A_2$ to $A_3$, until she reaches $A_{2022}$, after which she hops back to $A_1$. When hopping from $P$ to $Q$, she always hops along the shorter of the two arcs $\widehat{PQ}$ of $\gamma$; if $\overline{PQ}$ is a diameter of $\gamma$, she moves along either semicircle. Determine the maximal possible sum of the lengths of the $2022$ arcs which Bunbun traveled, over all possible labellings of the $2022$ points. [i]Kevin Cong[/i]
