If the sum of all positive divisors (including itself) of a positive integer $n$ is $2n$, then $n$ is called a perfect number. For example, the sum of the positive divisors of 6 is $1 + 2 + 3 + 6 = 2 \times 6$, hence 6 is a perfect number.
Prove: There does not exist a perfect number of the form $p^a q^b r^c$, where $a, b, c$ are positive integers, and $p, q, r$ are odd primes.

[b]p9.[/b] Natasha is sitting on one of the $35$ squares of a $5$-by-$7$ grid of squares.

[b]p13.[/b] Everyone at a math club is either a truth-teller, a liar, or a piggybacker. A truth-teller always tells the truth, a liar always lies, and a piggybacker will answer in the style of the previous person who spoke (i.e., if the person before told the truth, they will tell the truth, and if the person before lied, then they will lie). If a piggybacker is the first one to talk, they will randomly either tell the truth or lie. Four seniors in the math club were interviewed and here was their conversation:
Neil: There are two liars among us.
Lucy: Neil is a piggybacker.
Kevin: Excluding me, there are more truth-tellers than liars here.
Neil: Actually, there are more liars than truth-tellers if we exclude Kevin.
Jacob: One plus one equals three.
Define the base-$4$ number $M = \overline{NLKJ}_4$, where each digit is $1$ for a truth-teller, $2$ for a piggybacker, and $3$ for a liar ($N$ corresponds to Neil, $L$ to Lucy, $K$ corresponds to Kevin, and $J$ corresponds to Jacob). What is the sum of all possible values of $M$, expressed in base $10$?
[b]p14.[/b] An equilateral triangle of side length $8$ is tiled by $64$ equilateral triangles of unit side length to form a triangular grid. Initially, each triangular cell is either living or dead. The grid evolves over time under the following rule: every minute, if a dead cell is edge-adjacent to at least two living cells, then that cell becomes living, and any living cell remains living. Given that every cell in the grid eventually evolves to be living, what is the minimum possible number of living cells in the initial grid?
[b]p15.[/b] In triangle $ABC$, $AB = 7$, $BC = 11$, and $CA = 13$.

Given that $K$ denotes the area of $ABC$ and $L$ denotes the area of the intersection of $ABC$ and $MNP$, the ratio $L/K$ can be written as $a/b$ , where $a$ and $b$ are relatively prime positive integers. Compute $a + b$.

Prove that, no matter how many ants and what their initial positions are, they will, at some time, all simultaneously return to the initial positions.
