For an integer $n$, denote $A =\sqrt{n^{2}+24}$ and $B =\sqrt{n^{2}-9}$. Find all values of $n$ for which $A-B$ is an integer.
Given $n$ integers $a_1 = 1, a_2,..., a_n$ such that $a_i \le a_{i+1} \le 2a_i$ ($i = 1, 2, 3,..., n - 1$) and whose sum is even. Find whether it is possible to divide them into two groups so that the sum of numbers in one group is equal to the sum of numbers in the other group.
See all the problems from 5-th Kyiv math festival [url=http://www.mathlinks.ro/Forum/viewtopic.php?p=506789#p506789]here[/url] Squirrels $A$ and $B$ have $360$ nuts. $A$ divides these nuts into five non-empty heaps and $B$ chooses three heaps. If the total number of nuts in these heaps is divisible by the total number of nuts in other two heaps then $A$ wins. Otherwise $B$ wins. Which of the squirrels has a winning strategy?

There are $ m \plus{} 1$ horizontal lines and $ m$ vertical lines on the plane so that $ m(m \plus{} 1)$ intersections are made. A mark is placed at one of the $ m$ points of the lowest horizontal line. 2 players play the game of the following rules on this lines and points. 1. Each player moves a mark from a point to a point along the lines in turns. 2. The segment is erased after a mark moved along it. 3. When a player cannot make a move, then he loses. Prove that the lead always wins the game. PS I haven't found a student who solved it. There can be no one.

Two squares of side length $2$ are glued together along their boundary so that the four vertices of the first square are glued to the midpoints of the four sides of the other square, and vice versa. This gluing results in a convex polyhedron. If the square of the volume of this polyhedron is written in simplest form as $\tfrac{a+b\sqrt c}d$, what is the value of $a+b+c+d$?
