Three clever monkeys divide a pile of bananas. The first monkey takes some bananas from the pile, keeps three-fourths of them, and divides the rest equally between the other two. The second monkey takes some bananas from the pile, keeps one-fourth of them, and divides the rest equally between the other two. The third monkey takes the remaining bananas from the pile, keeps one-twelfth of them, and divides the rest equally between the other two. Given that each monkey receives a whole number of bananas whenever the bananas are divided, and the numbers of bananas the first, second, and third monkeys have at the end of the process are in the ratio $3: 2: 1$, what is the least possible total for the number of bananas?

To [i]dissect [/i] a polygon means to divide it into several regions by cutting along finitely many line segments. For example, the diagram below shows a dissection of a hexagon into two triangles and two quadrilaterals: [img]https://cdn.artofproblemsolving.com/attachments/0/a/378e477bcbcec26fc90412c3eada855ae52b45.png[/img] An [i]integer-ratio[/i] right triangle is a right triangle whose side lengths are in an integer ratio. For example, a triangle with sides $3,4,5$ is an[i] integer-ratio[/i] right triangle, and so is a triangle with sides $\frac52 \sqrt3 ,6\sqrt3, \frac{13}{2} \sqrt3$. On the other hand, the right triangle with sides$ \sqrt2 ,\sqrt5, \sqrt7$ is not an [i]integer-ratio[/i] right triangle. Determine, with proof, all integers $n$ for which it is possible to completely [i]dissect [/i] a regular $n$-sided polygon into [i]integer-ratio[/i] right triangles.

Two opposite sides of a rectangle are each divided into $n$ congruent segments, and the endpoints of one segment are joined to the center to form triangle $A$. The other sides are each divided into $m$ congruent segments, and the endpoints of one of these segments are joined to the center to form triangle $B$. [See figure for $n = 5, m = 7$.] What is the ratio of the area of triangle $A$ to the area of triangle $B$?

A solid in the shape of a right circular cone is 4 inches tall and its base has a 3-inch radius. The entire surface of the cone, including its base, is painted. A plane parallel to the base of the cone divides the cone into two solids, a smaller cone-shaped solid $C$ and a frustum-shaped solid $F$, in such a way that the ratio between the areas of the painted surfaces of $C$ and $F$ and the ratio between the volumes of $C$ and $F$ are both equal to $k$. Given that $k=m/n$, where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers, find $m+n$.
