We play a game of musical chairs with $n$ chairs numbered $1$ to $n$. You attach $n$ leaves, numbered $1$ to $n$, to the chairs in such a way that the number on a leaf does not match the number on the chair it is attached to. One player sits on each chair. Every time you clap, each player looks at the number on the leaf attached to his current seat and moves to sit on the seat with that number. Prove that, for any $m$ that is not a prime power with$ 1 < m \leq n$, it is possible to attach the leaves to the seats in such a way that after $m$ claps everyone has returned to the chair they started on for the first time.

There are two equal circles of radius $1$ placed inside the triangle $ABC$ with side $BC = 6$. The circles are tangent to each other, one is inscribed in angle $B$, the other one is inscribed in angle $C$. (a) Prove that the centroid $M$ of the triangle $ABC$ does not lie inside any of the given circles. (b) Prove that if $M$ lies on one of the circles, then the triangle $ABC$ is isosceles.

Let $N$ be a positive integer. Initially, a positive integer $A$ is written on the board. At each step, we can perform one of the following two operations with the number written on the board: (i) Add $N$ to the number written on the board and replace that number with the sum obtained; (ii) If the number on the board is greater than $1$ and has at least one digit $1$, then we can remove the digit $1$ from that number, and replace the number initially written with this one (with removal of possible leading zeros) For example, if $N = 63$ and $A = 25$, we can do the following sequence of operations: $$25 \rightarrow 88 \rightarrow 151 \rightarrow 51 \rightarrow 5$$ And if $N = 143$ and $A = 2$, we can do the following sequence of operations: $$2 \rightarrow 145 \rightarrow 288 \rightarrow 431 \rightarrow 574 \rightarrow 717 \rightarrow 860 \rightarrow 1003 \rightarrow 3$$ For what values of $N$ is it always possible, regardless of the initial value of $A$ on the blackboard, to obtain the number $1$ on the blackboard, through a finite number of operations?
