Do there exist positive integers $b,n>1$ such that when $n$ is expressed in base $b$, there are more than $n$ distinct permutations of its digits? For example, when $b=4$ and $n=18$, $18 = 102_4$, but $102$ only has $6$ digit arrangements. (Leading zeros are allowed in the permutations.) [i]Lewis Chen.[/i]

Let $\triangle ABC$ be a triangle such that $AB=6, BC=8,$ and $AC=10$. Let $M$ be the midpoint of $BC$. Circle $\omega$ passes through $A$ and is tangent to $BC$ at $M$. Suppose $\omega$ intersects segments $AB$ and $AC$ again at points $X$ and $Y$, respectively. If the area of $AXY$ can be expressed as $\frac{p}{q}$ where $p, q$ are relatively prime integers, compute $p+q$.

In a $50\times 50$ checkered square, each cell is colored in one of the 100 given colors so that all colors are used and there does not exist a monochromatic domino. Galia wants to repaint all the cells of one of the colors in a different color (from the given 100 colors) so that a monochromatic domino still won't exist. Is it true that Galia will surely be able to do this [i]Proposed by G. Sharafutdinova[/i]

Cells of a $2000\times2000$ board are colored according to the following rules: 1)At any moment a cell can be colored, if none of its neighbors are colored 2)At any moment a $1\times2$ rectangle can be colored, if exactly two of its neighbors are colored. 3)At any moment a $2\times2$ squared can be colored, if 8 of its neighbors are colored (Two cells are considered to be neighboring, if they share a common side).
