For any nonnegative integer $ n$, let $ f(n)$ be the greatest integer such that $ 2^{f(n)} | n \plus{} 1$. A pair $ (n, p)$ of nonnegative integers is called nice if $ 2^{f(n)} > p$. Find all triples $ (n, p, q)$ of nonnegative integers such that the pairs $ (n, p)$, $ (p, q)$ and $ (n \plus{} p \plus{} q, n)$ are all nice.

Alice and Bob live on the same road. At time $t$, they both decide to walk to each other's houses at constant speed. However, they were busy thinking about math so that they didn't realize passing each other. Alice arrived at Bob's house at $3:19\text{pm}$, and Bob arrived at Alice's house at $3:29\text{pm}$. Charlie, who was driving by, noted that Alice and Bob passed each other at $3:11\text{pm}$. Find the difference in minutes between the time Alice and Bob left their own houses and noon on that day.

In the course of the race, each skier either overtakes another skier or is overtaken by another skier exactly two times. Find all the possible orders in which they can finish. Write each possible finish as an ordered septuplet $(a, b, c, d, e, f, g)$ where $a, b, c, d, e, f, g$ are the numbers $1-7$ in some order. (So a finishes first, b finishes second, etc.) [b]p26.[/b] Archie the Alchemist is making a list of all the elements in the world, and the proportion of earth, air, fire, and water needed to produce each. He writes the proportions in the form E:A:F:W. If each of the letters represents a whole number from $0$ to $4$, inclusive, how many different elements can Archie list? Note that if Archie lists wood as $2:0:1:2$, then $4:0:2:4$ would also produce wood. In addition, $0:0:0:0$ does not produce an element.

[b]p30.[/b] Let $n$ be a positive integer. An $n \times n$ square grid is formed by $n^2$ unit squares. Each unit square is then colored either red or blue such that each row or column has exactly $10$ blue squares. A move consists of choosing a row or a column, and recolor each unit square in the chosen row or column – if it is red, we recolor it blue, and if it is blue, we recolor it red. Suppose that it is possible to obtain fewer than $10n$ blue squares after a sequence of finite number of moves. Find the maximum possible value of $n$. PS. You should use hide for answers.

2023 All-Russian Olympiad Regional Round, 11.4

We write pairs of integers on a blackboard. Initially, the pair $(1,2)$ is written. On a move, if $(a, b)$ is on the blackboard, we can add $(-a, -b)$ or $(-b, a+b)$. In addition, if $(a, b)$ and $(c, d)$ are written on the blackboard, we can add $(a+c, b+d)$. Can we reach $(2022, 2023)$?

A wishing well is located at the point $(11,11)$ in the $xy$-plane. Rachelle randomly selects an integer $y$ from the set $\left\{ 0, 1, \dots, 10 \right\}$. Then she randomly selects, with replacement, two integers $a,b$ from the set $\left\{ 1,2,\dots,10 \right\}$. The probability the line through $(0,y)$ and $(a,b)$ passes through the well can be expressed as $\frac mn$, where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Compute $m+n$.

On the blackboard, there are numbers $1, 2, \dots , 100$. At each move, Bob erases arbitrary two numbers $a$ and $b$, where $a \ge b > 0$, and writes the single number $\lfloor{a/b}\rfloor$. After $99$ such moves the blackboard will contain a single number. What is its maximum possible value? (Reminder that $\lfloor{x}\rfloor$ is the maximum integer not exceeding $x$.)
