A game is played by $n$ girls ($n \geq 2$), everybody having a ball. Each of the $\binom{n}{2}$ pairs of players, is an arbitrary order, exchange the balls they have at the moment. The game is called nice [b]nice[/b] if at the end nobody has her own ball and it is called [b]tiresome[/b] if at the end everybody has her initial ball. Determine the values of $n$ for which there exists a nice game and those for which there exists a tiresome game.

Every two of the $n$ cities of Ruritania are connected by a direct flight of one from two airlines. Promonopoly Committee wants at least $k$ flights performed by one company. To do this, he can at least every day to choose any three cities and change the ownership of the three flights connecting these cities each other (that is, to take each of these flights from a company that performs it, and pass the other). What is the largest $k$ committee knowingly will be able to achieve its goal in no time, no matter how the flights are distributed hour?

Alicia bought some number of disposable masks, of which she uses one per day. After she uses each of her masks, she throws out half of them (rounding up if necessary) and reuses each of the remaining masks, repeating this process until she runs out of masks. If her masks lasted her $222$ days, how many masks did she start out with?

The $49$ numbers $2,3,4,...,49,50$ are written on the blackboard . An allowed operation consists of choosing two different numbers $a$ and $b$ of the blackboard such that $a$ is a multiple of $b$ and delete exactly one of the two. María performs a sequence of permitted operations until she observes that it is no longer possible to perform any more. Determine the minimum number of numbers that can remain on the board at that moment.

A contractor has two teams of workers: team $A$ and team $B$. Team $A$ can complete a job in $12$ days and team $B$ can do the same job in $36$ days. Team $A$ starts working on the job and team $B$ joins team $A$ after four days. The team $A$ withdraws after two more days. For how many more days should team $B$ work to complete the job?
