Several boys and girls are dancing a waltz at a ball. Is it possible that each girl can always get to dance the next dance with either a more handsome or more clever boy than for the previous dance, and that each time at least $80\%$ of the girls get to dance the next dance with a boy who is more handsome and more clever? (The numbers of boys and girls are equal and all are dancing.)

For a positive integer $n$, let $R(n)$ be the sum of the remainders when $n$ is divided by $1,2, \cdots , n$. For example, $R(4) = 0 + 0 + 1 + 0 = 1,$ $R(7) = 0 + 1 + 1 + 3 + 2 + 1 + 0 = 8$. Find all positive integers such that $R(n) = n-1$.

We call a sequence of $m$ consecutive integers a [i]friendly[/i] sequence if its first term is divisible by $1$, the second by $2$, ..., the $(m-1)^{th}$ by $m-1$, and in addition, the last term is divisible by $m^2$
Does a friendly sequence exist for (a) $m=20$ and (b) $m=11$?

Jeremy has a magic scale, each side of which holds a positive integer. He plays the following game: each turn, he chooses a positive integer $n$. He then adds $n$ to the number on the left side of the scale, and multiplies by $n$ the number on the right side of the scale. (For example, if the turn starts with $4$ on the left and $6$ on the right, and Jeremy chooses $n = 3$, then the turn ends with $7$ on the left and $18$ on the right.) Jeremy wins if he can make both sides of the scale equal.
(a) Show that if the game starts with the left scale holding $17$ and the right scale holding $5$, then Jeremy can win the game in $4$ or fewer turns.
(b) Prove that if the game starts with the right scale holding $b$, where $b\geq 2$, then Jeremy can win the game in $b-1$ or fewer turns.

Let $G$ be an arbitrarily chosen finite simple graph. We write non-negative integers on the vertices of the graph such that for each vertex $v$ in $G,$ the number written on $v$ is equal to the number of vertices adjacent to $v$ where an even number is written. Prove that the number of ways to achieve this is a power of $2$.
