Teacher has 100 weights with masses $1$ g, $2$ g, $\dots$, $100$ g. He wants to give 30 weights to Petya and 30 weights to Vasya so that no 11 Petya's weights have the same total mass as some 12 Vasya's weights, and no 11 Vasya's weights have the same total mass as some 12 Petya's weights. Can the teacher do that?

Let $ABCD$ be a quadrilateral inscribed in circle $\omega$ with $\overline{AC} \perp \overline{BD}$. Let $E$ and $F$ be the reflections of $D$ over lines $BA$ and $BC$, respectively, and let $P$ be the intersection of lines $BD$ and $EF$. Suppose that the circumcircle of $\triangle EPD$ meets $\omega$ at $D$ and $Q$, and the circumcircle of $\triangle FPD$ meets $\omega$ at $D$ and $R$. Show that $EQ = FR$.

For a positive integer $n$ let $S(n)$ be the sum of digits in the decimal representation of $n$. Any positive integer obtained by removing several (at least one) digits from the right-hand end of the decimal representation of $n$ is called a [i]stump[/i] of $n$. Let $T(n)$ be the sum of all stumps of $n$. Prove that $n=S(n)+9T(n)$.

On the table there are written numbers $673, 674, \cdots, 2018, 2019.$ Nibab chooses arbitrarily three numbers $a,b$ and $c$, erases them and writes the number $\frac{\min(a,b,c)}{3}$, then he continues in an analogous way. After Nibab performed this operation $673$ times, on the table remained a single number $k$. Prove that $k\in(0,1).$

In a circus, there are $n$ clowns who dress and paint themselves up using a selection of 12 distinct colours. Each clown is required to use at least five different colours. One day, the ringmaster of the circus orders that no two clowns have exactly the same set of colours and no more than 20 clowns may use any one particular colour. Find the largest number $n$ of clowns so as to make the ringmaster's order possible.
