Teresa the bunny has a fair $8$-sided die. Seven of its sides have fixed labels $1, 2, \cdots , 7,$ and the label on the eighth side can be changed and begins as $1$. She rolls it several times, until each of $1, 2, \dots, 7$ appears at least once. After each roll, if $k$ is the smallest positive integer that she has not rolled so far, she relabels the eighth side with $k$. The probability that $7$ is the last number she rolls is $\tfrac ab,$ where $a$ and $b$ are relatively prime positive integers. Compute $100a + b$.

Joe, who is already feared by all bandits in the Wild West, would like to officially become a sheriff. To do that, he has to take a special exam where he has to demonstrate his talent in three different areas: tracking, shooting and lasso throwing. He successfully completes each task with a given probability, independently of each other. He passes the exam if he can complete at least two of the tasks successfully. Joe calculated that in case he starts with tracking and completes it successfully, his chance of passing the exam is $32\%$. If he starts with successful shooting, the chance of passing is $49\%$, whereas if he starts with successful lasso throwing, he passes with probability $52\%$.
The overall probability of passing (calculated before the start of the exam) is $X/1000$ . What is the value of $X$?

The wheel shown is spun twice, and the randomly determined numbers opposite the pointer are recorded. The first number is divided by $ 4$, and the second number is divided by $ 5$. The first remainder designates a column, and the second remainder designates a row on the checkerboard shown. What is the probability that the pair of numbers designates a shaded square?

There are two natural ways to inscribe a square in a given isosceles right triangle. If it is done as in Figure 1 below, then one finds that the area of the square is $441 \text{cm}^2$. What is the area (in $\text{cm}^2$) of the square inscribed in the same $\triangle ABC$ as shown in Figure 2 below?
