One Martian, one Venusian, and one Human reside on Pluton. One day they make the following conversation: [b]Martian [/b]: I have spent $1/12$ of my life on Pluton. [b]Human [/b]: I also have. [b]Venusian [/b]: Me too. [b]Martian [/b]: But Venusian and I have spend much more time here than you, Human. [b]Human [/b]: That is true. However, Venusian and I are of the same age. [b]Venusian [/b]: Yes, I have lived $300$ Earth years. [b]Martian [/b]: Venusian and I have been on Pluton for the past $13$ years. It is known that Human and Martian together have lived $104$ Earth years. Find the ages of Martian, Venusian, and Human.* [hide="*"][i]*: Note that the numbers in the problem are not necessarily in base $10.$[/i][/hide]

A country has 2025 cites, with some pairs of cities having bidirectional flight routes between them. For any pair of the cities, the flight route between them must be operated by one of the companies $X, Y$ or $Z$. To avoid unfairly favoring specific company, the regulation ensures that if there have three cities $A, B$ and $C$, with flight routes $A \leftrightarrow B$ and $A \leftrightarrow C$ operated by two different companies, then there must exist flight route $B \leftrightarrow C$ operated by the third company different from $A \leftrightarrow B$ and $A \leftrightarrow C$ . Let $n_X$, $n_Y$ and $n_Z$ denote the number of flight routes operated by companies $X, Y$ and $Z$, respectively. It is known that, starting from a city, we can arrive any other city through a series of flight routes (not necessary operated by the same company). Find the minimum possible value of $\max(n_X, n_Y , n_Z)$. [i] Proposed by usjl and YaWNeeT[/i]

Let $ABC$ be a triangle with $\angle ABC=90^{\circ}$. The square $BDEF$ is inscribed in $\triangle ABC$, such that $D,E,F$ are in the sides $AB,CA,BC$ respectively. The inradius of $\triangle EFC$ and $\triangle EDA$ are $c$ and $b$, respectively. Four circles $\omega_1,\omega_2,\omega_3,\omega_4$ are drawn inside the square $BDEF$, such that the radius of $\omega_1$ and $\omega_3$ are both equal to $b$ and the radius of $\omega_2$ and $\omega_4$ are both equal to $a$. The circle $\omega_1$ is tangent to $ED$, the circle $\omega_3$ is tangent to $BF$, $\omega_2$ is tangent to $EF$ and $\omega_4$ is tangent to $BD$, each one of these circles are tangent to the two closest circles and the circles $\omega_1$ and $\omega_3$ are tangents.
