Two distinct points $A$ and $B$ are chosen at random from 15 points equally spaced around a circle centered at $O$ such that each pair of points $A$ and $B$ has the same probability of being chosen. The probability that the perpendicular bisectors of $OA$ and $OB$ intersect strictly inside the circle can be expressed in the form $\frac{m}{n}$, where $m,n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Find $m+n$. [i]Ray Li.[/i]

1983 Putnam, B2

For positive integers $n$, let $C(n)$ be the number of representation of $n$ as a sum of nonincreasing powers of $2$, where no power can be used more than three times. For example, $C(8)=5$ since the representations of $8$ are: $$8,4+4,4+2+2,4+2+1+1,\text{ and }2+2+2+1+1.$$Prove or disprove that there is a polynomial $P(x)$ such that $C(n)=\lfloor P(n)\rfloor$ for all positive integers $n$.

A line parallel to the side $AC$ of a triangle $ABC$ with $\angle C = 90$ intersects side $AB$ at $M$ and side $BC$ at $N$, so that $CN/BN = AC/BC = 2/1$. The segments $CM$ and $AN$ meet at $O$. Let $K$ be a point on the segment $ON$ such that $MO+OK = KN$. The bisector of $\angle ABC$ meets the line through $K$ perpendicular to $AN$ at point $T$. Determine $\angle MTB$.

Set $S=\{1,2,...,2004\}$. We denote by $d_1$ the number of subset of $S$ such that the sum of elements of the subset has remainder $7$ when divided by $32$. We denote by $d_2$ the number of subset of $S$ such that the sum of elements of the subset has remainder $14$ when divided by $16$. Compute $\frac{d_1}{d_2}$.

Let $D(n)$ denote the number of ways of writing the positive integer $n$ as a product$$n = f_1\cdot f_2\cdots f_k,$$where $k\ge1$, the $f_i$ are integers strictly greater than $1$, and the order in which the factors are listed matters (that is, two representations that differ only in the order of the factors are counted as distinct). For example, the number $6$ can be written as $6$, $2\cdot 3$, and $3\cdot2$, so $D(6) = 3$. What is $D(96)$? $\textbf{(A) } 112 \qquad\textbf{(B) } 128 \qquad\textbf{(C) } 144 \qquad\textbf{(D) } 172 \qquad\textbf{(E) } 184$

2020 Saint Petersburg Mathematical Olympiad, 1.

Andryusha has $100$ stones of different weight and he can distinguish the stones by appearance, but does not know their weight. Every evening, Andryusha can put exactly $10$ stones on the table and at night the brownie will order them in increasing weight. But, if the drum also lives in the house then surely he will in the morning change the places of some $2$ stones.Andryusha knows all about this but does not know if there is a drum in his house. Can he find out?

2017 Dutch IMO TST, 1

Let $n$ be a positive integer. Suppose that we have disks of radii $1, 2, . . . , n.$ Of each size there are two disks: a transparent one and an opaque one. In every disk there is a small hole in the centre, with which we can stack the disks using a vertical stick. We want to make stacks of disks that satisfy the following conditions: $i)$ Of each size exactly one disk lies in the stack. $ii)$ If we look at the stack from directly above, we can see the edges of all of the $n$ disks in the stack. (So if there is an opaque disk in the stack,no smaller disks may lie beneath it.) Determine the number of distinct stacks of disks satisfying these conditions. (Two stacks are distinct if they do not use the same set of disks, or, if they do use the same set of disks and the orders in which the disks occur are different.)

There is the tournament for boys and girls. Every person played exactly one match with every other person, there were no draws. It turned out that every person had lost at least one game. Furthermore every boy lost different number of matches that every other boy. Prove that there is a girl, who won a match with at least one boy.

For $n$ an odd positive integer, the unit squares of an $n\times n$ chessboard are coloured alternately black and white, with the four corners coloured black. A it tromino is an $L$-shape formed by three connected unit squares. For which values of $n$ is it possible to cover all the black squares with non-overlapping trominos? When it is possible, what is the minimum number of trominos needed?
