How many ways are there to arrange three indistinguishable rooks on a $ 6 \times 6$ board such that no two rooks are attacking each other? (Two rooks are attacking each other if and only if they are in the same row or the same column.)

A set $S$ of positive integers is said to be [i]channeler[/i] if for any three distinct numbers $a,b,c \in S$, we have $a\mid bc$, $b\mid ca$, $c\mid ab$. a) Prove that for any finite set of positive integers $ \{ c_1, c_2, \ldots, c_n \} $ there exist infinitely many positive integers $k$, such that the set $ \{ kc_1, kc_2, \ldots, kc_n \} $ is a channeler set. b) Prove that for any integer $n \ge 3$ there is a channeler set who has exactly $n$ elements, and such that no integer greater than $1$ divides all of its elements.

A set $A$ of squares is given on a chessboard which is infinite in all directions. On each square of this chessboard which does not belong to $A$ there is a king. On a command all kings may be moved in such a way that each king either remains on its square or is moved to an adjacent square, which may have been occupied by another king before the command. Each square may be occupied by at most one king. Does there exist such a number $k$ and such a way of moving the kings that after $k$ moves the kings will occupy all squares of the chessboard? Consider the following cases: (a) $A$ is the set of all squares, both of whose coordinates are multiples of $100$. (There is a horizontal line numbered by the integers from $-\infty$ to $+\infty$, and a similar vertical line. Each square of the chessboard may be denoted by two numbers, its coordinates with respect to these axes.) (b) $A$ is the set of all squares which are covered by $100$ fixed arbitrary queens (i.e. each square covered by at least one queen). Remark: If $A$ consists of just one square, then $k = 1$ and the required way is the following: all kings to the left of the square of $A$ make one move to the right.

Two people write a $2k$-digit number, using only the numbers $1, 2, 3, 4$ and $5$. The first number on the left is written by the first of them, the second - the second, the third - the first, etc. Can the second one achieve this so that the resulting number is divisible by $9$, if the first seeks to interfere with it? Consider the cases $k = 10$ and $k = 15$.

Find the smallest positive integer $n$ or show no such $n$ exists, with the following property: there are infinitely many distinct $n$-tuples of positive rational numbers $(a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_n)$ such that both $$a_1+a_2+\dots +a_n \quad \text{and} \quad \frac{1}{a_1} + \frac{1}{a_2} + \dots + \frac{1}{a_n}$$ are integers.

Ari and Beri play a game using a deck of $2020$ cards with exactly one card with each number from $1$ to $2020$. Ari gets a card with a number $a$ and removes it from the deck. Beri sees the card, chooses another card from the deck with a number $b$ and removes it from the deck. Then Beri writes on the board exactly one of the trinomials $x^2-ax+b$ or $x^2-bx+a$ from his choice. This process continues until no cards are left on the deck. If at the end of the game every trinomial written on the board has integer solutions, Beri wins. Otherwise, Ari wins. Prove that Beri can always win, no matter how Ari plays.
