1975 Chisinau City MO, 102

Two people write a $2k$-digit number, using only the numbers $1, 2, 3, 4$ and $5$. The first number on the left is written by the first of them, the second - the second, the third - the first, etc. Can the second one achieve this so that the resulting number is divisible by $9$, if the first seeks to interfere with it? Consider the cases $k = 10$ and $k = 15$.

2016 India Regional Mathematical Olympiad, 3

$a, b, c, d$ are integers such that $ad + bc$ divides each of $a, b, c$ and $d$. Prove that $ad + bc =\pm 1$

1960 Poland - Second Round, 4

Prove that if $ n $ is a non-negative integer, then number $$ 2^{n+2} + 3^{2n+1}$$ is divisible by $7$.

2020 Durer Math Competition Finals, 6

Positive integers $a, b$ and $c$ are all less than $2020$. We know that $a$ divides $b + c$, $b$ divides $a + c$ and $c$ divides $a + b$. How many such ordered triples $(a, b, c)$ are there? Note: In an ordered triple, the order of the numbers matters, so the ordered triple $(0, 1, 2)$ is not the same as the ordered triple $(2, 0, 1)$.

2022 Switzerland - Final Round, 2

Let $n$ be a positive integer. Prove that the numbers $$1^1, 3^3, 5^5, ..., (2n-1)^{2n-1}$$ all give different remainders when divided by $2^n$.

1998 Tournament Of Towns, 3

Six dice are strung on a rigid wire so that the wire passes through two opposite faces of each die. Each die can be rotated independently of the others. Prove that it is always possible to rotate the dice and then place the wire horizontally on a table so that the six-digit number formed by their top faces is divisible by $7$. (The faces of a die are numbered from $1$ to $6$, the sum of the numbers on opposite faces is always equal to $7$.) (G Galperin)
