Two distinct points $A$ and $B$ are chosen at random from 15 points equally spaced around a circle centered at $O$ such that each pair of points $A$ and $B$ has the same probability of being chosen. The probability that the perpendicular bisectors of $OA$ and $OB$ intersect strictly inside the circle can be expressed in the form $\frac{m}{n}$, where $m,n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Find $m+n$.

2024 Austrian MO Regional Competition, 3
On a table, we have ten thousand matches, two of which are inside a bowl. Anna and Bernd play the following game: They alternate taking turns and Anna begins. A turn consists of counting the matches in the bowl, choosing a proper divisor $d$ of this number and adding $d$ matches to the bowl. The game ends when more than $2024$ matches are in the bowl. The person who played the last turn wins. Prove that Anna can win independently of how Bernd plays.

Given an integer $m\ge 2$, find the smallest integer $k > m$ such that for any partition of the set $\{m,m + 1,..,k\}$ into two classes $A$ and $B$ at least one of the classes contains three numbers $a,b,c$ (not necessarily distinct) such that $a^b = c$.

In a tournament among six teams, every team plays against each other team exactly once. When a team wins, it receives $3$ points and the losing team receives $0$ points. If the game is a draw, the two teams receive $1$ point each.
Can the final scores of the six teams be six consecutive numbers $a,a +1,...,a + 5$?
If so, determine all values of $a$ for which this is possible.

2019 Middle European Mathematical Olympiad, 4
Prove that every integer from $1$ to $2019$ can be represented as an arithmetic expression consisting of up to $17$ symbols $2$ and an arbitrary number of additions, subtractions, multiplications, divisions and brackets. The $2$'s may not be used for any other operation, for example, to form multidigit numbers (such as $222$) or powers (such as $2^2$).
Valid examples: $$\left((2\times 2+2)\times 2-\frac{2}{2}\right)\times 2=22 \;\;, \;\; (2\times2\times 2-2)\times \left(2\times 2 +\frac{2+2+2}{2}\right)=42$$

Let \(d(n)\) denote the number of positive divisors of \(n\). The sequence \(a_0\), \(a_1\), \(a_2\), \(\ldots\) is defined as follows: \(a_0=1\), and for all integers \(n\ge1\), \[a_n=d(a_{n-1})+d(d(a_{n-2}))+\cdots+ {\underbrace{d(d(\ldots d(a_0)\ldots))}_{n\text{ times}}}.\] Show that for all integers \(n\ge1\), we have \(a_n\le3n\).

[b]6.1[/b] The student bought a briefcase, a fountain pen and a book. If the briefcase cost 5 times cheaper, the fountain pen was 2 times cheaper, and the book was 2 1/2 times cheaper cheaper, then the entire purchase would cost 2 rubles. If the briefcase was worth 2 times cheaper, a fountain pen is 4 times cheaper, and a book is 3 times cheaper, then the whole the purchase would cost 3 rubles. How much does it really cost? ´
