A survey of participants was conducted at the Olympiad. $ 90\%$ of the participants liked the first round, $60\%$ of the participants liked the second round, $90\%$ of the participants liked the opening of the Olympiad. Each participant was known to enjoy at least two of these three events. Determine the percentage of participants who rated all three events positively.

For every composite positive integer $n$, define $r(n)$ to be the sum of the factors in the prime factorization of $n$. For example, $r(50)=12$ because the prime factorization of $50$ is $ 2 \cdot 5^2 $, and $ 2 + 5 + 5 = 12 $. What is the range of the function $r$, $ \{ r(n) : n \ \text{is a composite positive integer} \} $? [b](A)[/b] the set of positive integers [b](B)[/b] the set of composite positive integers [b](C)[/b] the set of even positive integers [b](D)[/b] the set of integers greater than 3 [b](E)[/b] the set of integers greater than 4

Let $n \geq 3$ be an integer. At a MEMO-like competition, there are $3n$ participants, there are n languages spoken, and each participant speaks exactly three different languages. Prove that at least $\left\lceil\frac{2n}{9}\right\rceil$ of the spoken languages can be chosen in such a way that no participant speaks more than two of the chosen languages. [b]Note.[/b] $\lceil x\rceil$ is the smallest integer which is greater than or equal to $x$.

A game is played on a $1 \times 1000$ board. There are n chips, all of which are initially in a box near the board. Two players move in turn. The first may choose $17$ chips or less, from either on or off the board. She then puts them into unoccupied cells on the board so that there is no more than one chip in each of the cells. The second player may take off the board any number of chips occupying consecutive cells and put them back in the box. The first player wins if she can put all n chips on the board so that they occupy consecutive cells. (a) Show that she can win if $n = 98$. (b) For what maximal value of $n$ can she win?
