2024 Euler Olympiad, Round 1, 7

Anna took a number \(N\), which is written in base 10 and has fewer than 9 digits, and duplicated it by writing another \(N\) to its left, creating a new number with twice as many digits. Bob computed the sum of all integers from 1 to \(N\). It turned out that Anna's new number is 7 times as large as the sum computed by Bob. Determine \(N\).

2024 Euler Olympiad, Round 2, 4

Three numbers are initially written on the board: 2023, 2024, and 2025. In each move, you can increase any two of these numbers by 1 and decrease the third one by 2. a) Determine whether it is possible to perform a sequence of operations such that the board eventually contains two numbers that are equal. b) Calculate the number of all possible ordered triples of positive integers that can be obtained by performing such operations some number of times.

A student took a rectangular piece of paper with length equal to one meter and width equal to five centimeters. The student brought the ends together, turning one end 180 degrees and gluing the surfaces to create a figure called a Möbius strip. On one side of this strip, the student placed a flea and an ant. It is known that if the flea and the ant move in different directions on the Möbius strip, they will meet each other in 2 minutes. However, if they move in the same direction, they will meet in 7 minutes. Given that the flea is faster than the ant and both move at constant speeds, determine the speed of the flea.

2002 Putnam, 2

Consider a polyhedron with at least five faces such that exactly three edges emerge from each of its vertices. Two players play the following game: Each, in turn, signs his or her name on a previously unsigned face. The winner is the player who first succeeds in signing three faces that share a common vertex. Show that the player who signs first will always win by playing as well as possible.

If a square is partitioned into $ n$ convex polygons, determine the maximum possible number of edges in the obtained figure. (You may wish to use the following theorem of Euler: If a polygon is partitioned into $ n$ polygons with $ v$ vertices and $ e$ edges in the resulting figure, then $ v\minus{}e\plus{}n\equal{}1$.)
