In a mathematical version of baseball, the umpire chooses a positive integer $m$, $m \leq n$, and you guess positive integers to obtain information about $m$. If your guess is smaller than the umpire's $m$, he calls it a "ball"; if it is greater than or equal to $m$, he calls it a "strike." To "hit" it you must state the the correct value of $m$ after the 3rd strike or the 6th guess, whichever comes first. What is the largest $n$ so that there exists a strategy that will allow you to bat 1.000, i.e. always state $m$ correctly? Describe your strategy in detail.

We arranged all the prime numbers in the ascending order: $p_1=2<p_2<p_3<\cdots$. Also assume that $n_1<n_2<\cdots$ is a sequence of positive integers that for all $i=1,2,3,\cdots$ the equation $x^{n_i} \equiv 2 \pmod {p_i}$ has a solution for $x$. Is there always a number $x$ that satisfies all the equations? [i]Proposed by Mahyar Sefidgaran , Yahya Motevasel[/i]

Call a positive integer $n$ "Fantastic" if none of its digits are zero and it is possible to remove one of its digits and reach to an integer which is a divisor of $n$ . ( for example , 25 is fantastic , as if we remove digit 2 , resulting number would be 5 which is divisor of 25 ) Prove that the number of Fantastic numbers is finite.

Let $X_r=x^r+y^r+z^r$ with $x,y,z$ real. It is known that if $S_1=0$, \[(*)\quad\frac{S_{m+n}}{m+n}=\frac{S_m}{m}\frac{S_n}{n}\] for $(m,n)=(2,3),(3,2),(2,5)$, or $(5,2)$. Determine [i]all[/i] other pairs of integers $(m,n)$ if any, so that $(*)$ holds for all real numbers $x,y,z$ such that $x+y+z=0$.

Let $ a, b \in \mathbb{Z}$ which are not perfect squares. Prove that if \[ x^2 \minus{} ay^2 \minus{} bz^2 \plus{} abw^2 \equal{} 0\] has a nontrivial solution in integers, then so does \[ x^2 \minus{} ay^2 \minus{} bz^2 \equal{} 0.\]

Initially, Alice is given a positive integer $a_0$. At time $i$, Alice has two choices, $$\begin{cases}a_i\mapsto\frac1{a_{i-1}}\\a_i\mapsto2a_{i-1}+1\end{cases}$$ Note that it is dangerous to perform the first operation, so Alice cannot choose this operation in two consecutive turns. However, if $x>8763$, then Alice could only perform the first operation. Determine all $a_0$ so that $\{i\in\mathbb N\mid a_i\in\mathbb N\}$ is an infinite set.

Let $x_n$ be the $n$-th non-square positive integer. Thus $x_1=2, x_2=3, x_3=5, x_4=6,$ etc. For a positive real number $x$, denotes the integer closest to it by $\langle x\rangle$. If $x=m+0.5$, where $m$ is an integer, then define $\langle x\rangle=m$. For example, $\langle 1.2\rangle =1, \langle 2.8 \rangle =3, \langle 3.5\rangle =3$. Show that $x_n=n+\langle \sqrt{n}\rangle$
