[b]G.16[/b] A number $k$ is the product of exactly three distinct primes (in other words, it is of the form $pqr$, where $p, q, r$ are distinct primes). If the average of its factors is $66$, find $k$.
[b]G.17[/b] Find the number of lattice points contained on or within the graph of $\frac{x^2}{3} +\frac{y^2}{2}= 12$. Lattice points are coordinate points $(x, y)$ where $x$ and $y$ are integers.
[b]G.18 / C.23[/b] How many triangles can be made from the vertices and center of a regular hexagon? Two congruent triangles with different orientations are considered distinct.
[b]G.19[/b] Cindy has a cone with height $15$ inches and diameter $16$ inches. She paints one-inch thick bands of paint in circles around the cone, alternating between red and blue bands, until the whole cone is covered with paint. If she starts from the bottom of the cone with a blue strip, what is the ratio of the area of the cone covered by red paint to the area of the cone covered by blue paint?
[b]G.20 / C.25[/b] An even positive integer $n$ has an odd factorization if the largest odd divisor of $n$ is also the smallest odd divisor of n greater than 1. Compute the number of even integers $n$ less than $50$ with an odd factorization.

[b]G.21[/b] In the magical tree of numbers, $n$ is directly connected to $2n$ and $2n + 1$ for all nonnegative integers n. A frog on the magical tree of numbers can move from a number $n$ to a number connected to it in $1$ hop. What is the least number of hops that the frog can take to move from $1000$ to $2018$?
[b]G.22[/b] Stan makes a deal with Jeff. Stan is given 1 dollar, and every day for $10$ days he must either double his money or burn a perfect square amount of money. At first Stan thinks he has made an easy $1024$ dollars, but then he learns the catch - after $10$ days, the amount of money he has must be a multiple of $11$ or he loses all his money. What is the largest amount of money Stan can have after the $10$ days are up?
[b]G.23[/b] Let $\Gamma_1$ be a circle with diameter $2$ and center $O_1$ and let $\Gamma_2$ be a congruent circle centered at a point $O_2 \in \Gamma_1$. Suppose $\Gamma_1$ and $\Gamma_2$ intersect at $A$ and $B$. Let $\Omega$ be a circle centered at $A$ passing through $B$. Let $P$ be the intersection of $\Omega$ and $\Gamma_1$ other than $B$ and let $Q$ be the intersection of $\Omega$ and ray $\overrightarrow{AO_1}$. Define $R$ to be the intersection of $PQ$ with $\Gamma_1$. Compute the length of $O_2R$.
[b]G.24[/b] $8$ people are at a party. Each person gives one present to one other person such that everybody gets a present and no two people exchange presents with each other. How many ways is this possible?
[b]G.25[/b] Let $S$ be the set of points $(x, y)$ such that $y = x^3 - 5x$ and $x = y^3 - 5y$. There exist four points in $S$ that are the vertices of a rectangle. Find the area of this rectangle.

Let $n> 1$ be an odd integer. On a square surface have been placed $n^2 - 1$ white slabs and a black slab on the center. Two workers $A$ and $B$ take turns removing them, betting that whoever removes black will lose. First
$A$ picks a slab; if it has row number $i \ge (n + 1) / 2$, then it will remove all tiles from rows with number
greater than or equal to$ i$, while if $i <(n + 1) / 2$, then it will remove all tiles from the rows with lesser number
or equal to $i$. Proceed in a similar way with columns. Then $B$ chooses one of the remaining tiles and repeats the
process. Determine who has a winning strategy and describe it.
Note: Row and column numbering is ascending from top to bottom and from left to right.

Consider the second degree polynomial $x^2+ax+b$ with real coefficients. We know that the necessary and sufficient condition for this polynomial to have roots in real numbers is that its discriminant, $a^2-4b$ be greater than or equal to zero. Note that the discriminant is also a polynomial with variables $a$ and $b$. Prove that the same story is not true for polynomials of degree $4$: Prove that there does not exist a $4$ variable polynomial $P(a,b,c,d)$ such that:
The fourth degree polynomial $x^4+ax^3+bx^2+cx+d$ can be written as the product of four $1$st degree polynomials if and only if $P(a,b,c,d)\ge 0$. (All the coefficients are real numbers.)

$ABCD$ is any convex quadrilateral. Construct a new quadrilateral as follows. Take $A'$ so that $A$ is the midpoint of $DA'$; similarly, $B'$ so that $B$ is the midpoint of $AB'$; $C'$ so that $C$ is the midpoint of $BC'$; and $D'$ so that $D$ is the midpoint of $CD'$. Show that the area of $A'B'C'D'$ is five times the area of $ABCD$.
