Real numbers are written on the squares of an infinite grid. Two figures consisting of finitely many squares are given. They may be translated anywhere on the grid as long as their squares coincide with those of the grid. It is known that wherever the first figure is translated, the sum of numbers it covers is positive. Prove that the second figure can be translated so that the sum of the numbers it covers is also positive.

Maggie Waggie organizes a pile of 127 calculus tests in alphabetical order, with Joccy Woccy's test being 64th in the pile. While Maggie isn't looking, Joccy walks over and randomly scrambles the entire pile of tests. When Maggie returns, she is oblivious to the fact that Joccy has tampered with the list. She uses a binary search algorithm to find Joccy's test, where she looks at the test in the middle of the pile. If the test is not Joccy's, she binary searches the top half of the list if the test appears after Joccy's name when arranged alphabetically, or the bottom half of the list otherwise. The probability that Maggie finds Joccy's test can be expressed as $\frac{p}{q}$. Compute $p+q$. [i]2022 CCA Math Bonanza Team Round #5[/i]
