Erick stands in the square in the 2nd row and 2nd column of a 5 by 5 chessboard. There are \$1 bills in the top left and bottom right squares, and there are \$5 bills in the top right and bottom left squares, as shown below. \[\begin{tabular}{|p{1em}|p{1em}|p{1em}|p{1em}|p{1em}|} \hline \$1 & & & & \$5 \\ \hline & E & & &\\ \hline & & & &\\ \hline & & & &\\ \hline \$5 & & & & \$1 \\ \hline \end{tabular}\] Every second, Erick randomly chooses a square adjacent to the one he currently stands in (that is, a square sharing an edge with the one he currently stands in) and moves to that square. When Erick reaches a square with money on it, he takes it and quits. The expected value of Erick's winnings in dollars is $m/n$, where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Find $m+n$.

For each point $M$ in the plane ($ABC$) let $M_1$ be the point symmetric to $M$ with respect to $AB$, $M_2$ be the point symmetric to $M_1$ with respect to $BC$ and $M'$ be the point symmetric to $M_2$ with respect to $AC$. Find all points $M$ such that $MM'$ obtains its minimum. Let this minimum value be $d$.

In the first part the order of axes we chose $AB$, $BC$, $CA$, and the second part of the problem states that the value $d$ doesn't depend on this order).

On a circular table are sitting $ 2n$ people, equally spaced in between. $ m$ cookies are given to these people, and they give cookies to their neighbors according to the following rule. (i) One may give cookies only to people adjacent to himself. (ii) In order to give a cookie to one's neighbor, one must eat a cookie. Select arbitrarily a person $ A$ sitting on the table. Find the minimum value $ m$ such that there is a strategy in which $ A$ can eventually receive a cookie, independent of the distribution of cookies at the beginning.
