At a recent math contest, Evan was asked to find $2^{2016} \pmod{p}$ for a given prime number $p$ with $100 < p < 500$. Evan has forgotten what the prime $p$ was, but still remembers how he solved it:
[list]
[*] Evan first tried taking $2016$ modulo $p - 1$, but got a value $e$ larger than $100$.
[*] However, Evan noted that $e - \frac{1}{2}(p - 1) = 21$, and then realized the answer was $-2^{21} \pmod{p}$.
[/list]
What was the prime $p$?

Let $M_n$ be the $n\times n$ matrix with entries as follows: for $1\leq i \leq n$, $m_{i,i}=10$; for $1\leq i \leq n-1, m_{i+1,i}=m_{i,i+1}=3$; all other entries in $M_n$ are zero. Let $D_n$ be the determinant of matrix $M_n$. Then $\displaystyle \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \dfrac{1}{8D_n+1}$ can be represented as $\frac{p}{q}$, where $p$ and $q$ are relatively prime positive integers. Find $p+q$.
Note: The determinant of the $1\times 1$ matrix $[a]$ is $a$, and the determinant of the $2\times 2$ matrix $\left[ \begin{array}{cc} a & b \\ c & d \end{array} \right]=ad-bc$; for $n\geq 2$, the determinant of an $n\times n$ matrix with first row or first column $a_1\ a_2\ a_3 \dots\ a_n$ is equal to $a_1C_1 - a_2C_2 + a_3C_3 - \dots + (-1)^{n+1} a_nC_n$, where $C_i$ is the determinant of the $(n-1)\times (n-1)$ matrix found by eliminating the row and column containing $a_i$.

Olya wrote fractions of the form $1 / n$ on cards, where $n$ is all possible divisors the numbers $6^{100}$ (including the unit and the number itself). These cards she laid out in some order. After that, she wrote down the number on the first card, then the sum of the numbers on the first and second cards, then the sum of the numbers on the first three cards, etc., finally, the sum of the numbers on all the cards. Every amount Olya recorded on the board in the form of irreducible fraction. What is the least different denominators could be on the numbers on the board?

Starting from the number $ 1$ we write down a sequence of numbers where the next number in the sequence is obtained from the previous one either by doubling it, or by rearranging its digits (not allowing the first digit of the rearranged number to be $0$). For instance we might begin:
$$1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 61, 122, 212, 424,...$$
Is it possible to construct such a sequence that ends with the number $1,000,000,000$? Is it possible to construct one that ends with the number $9,876,543,210$?
