Let $\triangle ABC$ be a right triangle with right angle at $C$. Let $D$ and $E$ be points on $\overline{AB}$ with $D$ between $A$ and $E$ such that $\overline{CD}$ and $\overline{CE}$ trisect $\angle C$. If $\frac{DE}{BE} = \frac{8}{15}$, then $\tan B$ can be written as $\frac{m\sqrt{p}}{n}$, where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers, and $p$ is a positive integer not divisible by the square of any prime. Find $m+n+p$.

Bob is making partitions of $10$, but he hates even numbers, so he splits $10$ up in a special way. He starts with $10$, and at each step he takes every even number in the partition and replaces it with a random pair of two smaller positive integers that sum to that even integer. For example, $6$ could be replaced with $1+5$, $2+4$, or $3+3$ all with equal probability. He terminates this process when all the numbers in his list are odd. The expected number of integers in his list at the end can be expressed in the form $\frac{m}{n}$, where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Compute $100m+n$.

$(FRA 6)$ Consider the integer $d = \frac{a^b-1}{c}$, where $a, b$, and $c$ are positive integers and $c \le a.$ Prove that the set $G$ of integers that are between $1$ and $d$ and relatively prime to $d$ (the number of such integers is denoted by $\phi(d)$) can be partitioned into $n$ subsets, each of which consists of $b$ elements. What can be said about the rational number $\frac{\phi(d)}{b}?$

Let $a$ and $b$ be randomly selected three-digit integers and suppose $a > b$.
We say that $a$ is [i]clearly bigger[/i] than $b$ if each digit of $a$ is larger than the corresponding digit of $b$.
If the probability that $a$ is clearly bigger than $b$ is $\tfrac mn$, where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime integers,
compute $m+n$.

[i](i)[/i] $i$ and $n - i$ always receive the same color, and
[i](ii)[/i] for some $j \in N$, relatively prime to $n$, $i$ and $|j - i|$ receive the same color for all $i \in N, i \neq j.$
Prove that all numbers in $N$ must receive the same color.

An eccentric mathematician has a ladder with $ n$ rungs that he always ascends and descends in the following way: When he ascends, each step he takes covers $ a$ rungs of the ladder, and when he descends, each step he takes covers $ b$ rungs of the ladder, where $ a$ and $ b$ are fixed positive integers. By a sequence of ascending and descending steps he can climb from ground level to the top rung of the ladder and come back down to ground level again. Find, with proof, the minimum value of $ n,$ expressed in terms of $ a$ and $ b.$
