The circle $S_1$ intersects the hyperbola $y=\frac1x$ at four points $A$, $B$, $C$, and $D$, and the other circle $S_2$ intersects the same hyperbola at four points $A$, $B$, $F$, and $G$. It's known that the radii of circles $S_1$ and $S_2$ are equal. Prove that the points $C$, $D$, $F$, and $G$ are the vertices of the parallelogram.

For even positive integer $n$ we put all numbers $1,2,...,n^2$ into the squares of an $n\times n$ chessboard (each number appears once and only once). Let $S_1$ be the sum of the numbers put in the black squares and $S_2$ be the sum of the numbers put in the white squares. Find all $n$ such that we can achieve $\frac{S_1}{S_2}=\frac{39}{64}.$

Mother baked $15$ pasties. She placed them on a round plate in a circular way: $7$ with cabbage, $7$ with meat and one with cherries in that exact order and put the plate into a microwave. All pasties look the same but Olga knows the order. However she doesn't know how the plate has been rotated in the microwave. She wants to eat a pasty with cherries. Can Olga eat her favourite pasty for sure if she is not allowed to try more than three other pasties?
