[i]Round 5[/i] [b]p13.[/b] Kelvin Amphibian, a not-frog who lives on the coordinate plane, likes jumping around. Each step, he jumps either to the spot that is $1$ unit to the right and 2 units up, or the spot that is $2$ units to the right and $1$ unit up, from his current location. He chooses randomly among these two choices with equal probability. He starts at the origin and jumps for a long time. What is the probability that he lands on $(10, 8)$ at some time in his journey? [b]p14.[/b] Points $A, B, C$, and $D$ are randomly chosen on the circumference of a unit circle. What is the probability that line segments $AB$ and $CD$ intersect inside the circle?

Alec has $m$ standard $6$-sided dice, each labelled $1$ to $6$ inclusive on the sides, while James has $n$ standard $12$-sided dice, each labelled $1$ to $12$ inclusive on the sides. They decide to play a game with their dice. They each toss all their dice simultaneously and then compute the sum of the numbers that come up on their dice. Whoever has a higher sum wins (if the sums are equal, they tie). Given that both players have an equal chance of winning, determine the minimum possible value of mn.

For example, $2017$ can be split into $2$ and $017$ (or $17$), $20$ and $17$, or $201$ and $7$. A split is called squarish if both integers are nonzero perfect squares. $49$ and $169$ are the two smallest perfect squares that have a squarish split ($4$ and $9$, $16$ and $9$ respectively).

[b]p24.[/b] For positive integers $n$ and $b$ where $b > 1$, define $s_b(n)$ as the sum of digits in the base-$b$ representation of $n$. A positive integer $p$ is said to dominate another positive integer $q$ if for all positive integers $n$, $s_p(n)$ is greater than or equal to $s_q(n)$. Find the number of ordered pairs $(p, q)$ of distinct positive integers between $2$ and $100$ inclusive such that $p$ dominates $q$. PS. You should use hide for answers.
