We say 2 frogs (of any color) can meet at a square if both can get to the same square in one or more jumps, not neccesarily with the same amount of jumps.
[list=a]
[*]Prove if 6 frogs are placed, then there exist at least 2 that can meet at a square.
[*]For which values of $k$ is it possible to place one green and one red frog such that they can meet at exactly $k$ squares?[/list]
There are $n$ schools in a city. $i$th school dispatches $C_i(1\leq C_i\leq39,1\leq i\leq n)$ students to watch a football match. The number of all students $\sum_{i=1}^{n}C_{i}=1990$. In each line, there are $199$ seats, but students from the same school must sit in the same line. So, how many lines of seats we need to have to make sure all students have a seat.
Are there any real numbers $a,b,c$ such that $a+b+c=6$, $ab+bc+ca=9$ and $a^4+b^4+c^4=260$? What about if we let $a^4+b^4+c^4=210$?

Let $m, n$ be positive integers.
There are $n$ piles of gold coins, so that pile $i$ has $a_i > 0$ coins in it $(i = 1, ..., n)$. Consider the following game:
Step 1. Nadech picks sets $B_1, B_2, ... , B_n$, where each $B_i$ is a nonempty subset of $\{1, 2, . . . , m\}$, and gives them to Yaya.
Step 2. Yaya picks a set $S$ which is also a nonempty subset of $\{1, 2, . . . , m\}$.
Step 3. For each $i = 1, 2, . . . , n$, Nadech wins the coins in pile $i$ if $B_i \cap S$ has an even number of elements, and Yaya wins the coins in pile $i$ if $B_i \cap S$ has an odd number of elements.
Show that, no matter how Nadech picks the sets $B_1, B_2, . . . , B_n$, Yaya can always pick $S$ so that she ends up with more gold coins than Nadech
