Harold, Tanya, and Ulysses paint a very long picket fence. Harold starts with the first picket and paints every $h$th picket; Tanya starts with the second picket and paints everth $t$th picket; and Ulysses starts with the third picket and paints every $u$th picket. Call the positive integer $100h+10t+u$ $\textit{paintable}$ when the triple $(h,t,u)$ of positive integers results in every picket being painted exaclty once. Find the sum of all the paintable integers.

Kevin is in kindergarten, so his teacher puts a $100 \times 200$ addition table on the board during class. The teacher first randomly generates distinct positive integers $a_1, a_2, \dots, a_{100}$ in the range $[1, 2016]$ corresponding to the rows, and then she randomly generates distinct positive integers $b_1, b_2, \dots, b_{200}$ in the range $[1, 2016]$ corresponding to the columns. She then fills in the addition table by writing the number $a_i+b_j$ in the square $(i, j)$ for each $1\le i\le 100$, $1\le j\le 200$. During recess, Kevin takes the addition table and draws it on the playground using chalk. Now he can play hopscotch on it! He wants to hop from $(1, 1)$ to $(100, 200)$. At each step, he can jump in one of $8$ directions to a new square bordering the square he stands on a side or at a corner. Let $M$ be the minimum possible sum of the numbers on the squares he jumps on during his path to $(100, 200)$ (including both the starting and ending squares). The expected value of $M$ can be expressed in the form $\frac{p}{q}$ for relatively prime positive integers $p, q$. Find $p + q.$ [i]Proposed by Yang Liu[/i]

Let $n$ be a positive integer. There are $n$ islands with $n-1$ bridges connecting them such that one can travel from any island to another. One afternoon, a fire breaks out in one of the islands. Every morning, it spreads to all neighbouring islands. (Two islands are neighbours if they are connected by a bridge.) To control the spread, one bridge is destroyed every night until the fire has nowhere to spread the next day. Let $X$ be the minimum possible number of bridges one has to destroy before the fire stops spreading. Find the maximum possible value of $X$ over all possible configurations of bridges and island where the fire starts at.
