Jiiri and Mari both wish to tile an $n \times n$ chessboard with cards shown in the picture (each card covers exactly one square). Jiiri wants that for each two cards that have a common edge, the neighbouring parts are of different color, and Mari wants that the neighbouring parts are always of the same color. How many possibilities does Jiiri have to tile the chessboard and how many possibilities does Mari have?

Midori and Momoi are arguing over chores. Each of $5$ chores may either be done by Midori, done by Momoi, or put off for tomorrow. Today, each of them must complete at least one chore, and more than half of the chores must be completed. How many ways can they assign chores for today? (The order in which chores are completed does not matter.)

2017 Dutch Mathematical Olympiad, 4

If we divide the number $13$ by the three numbers $5, 7$, and $9$, then these divisions leave remainders: when dividing by $5$ the remainder is $3$, when dividing by $7$ the remainder is $6$, and when dividing by $9$ the remainder is 4. If we add these remainders, we obtain $3 + 6 + 4 = 13$, the original number. (a) Let $n$ be a positive integer and let $a$ and $b$ be two positive integers smaller than $n$. Prove: if you divide $n$ by $a$ and $b$, then the sum of the two remainders never equals $n$. (b) Determine all integers $n > 229$ having the property that if you divide $n$ by $99, 132$, and $229$, the sum of the three remainders is $n$.

Abe can paint the room in 15 hours, Bea can paint 50 percent faster than Abe, and Coe can paint twice as fast as Abe. Abe begins to paint the room and works alone for the first hour and a half. Then Bea joins Abe, and they work together until half the room is painted. Then Coe joins Abe and Bea, and they work together until the entire room is painted. Find the number of minutes after Abe begins for the three of them to finish painting the room.

$162$ pluses and $144$ minuses are placed in a $30\times 30$ table in such a way that each row and each column contains at most $17$ signs. (No cell contains more than one sign.) For every plus we count the number of minuses in its row and for every minus we count the number of pluses in its column. Find the maximum of the sum of these numbers.

Let $G$ be the set of points $(x, y)$ such that $x$ and $y$ are positive integers less than or equal to 6. A [i]magic grid[/i] is an assignment of an integer to each point in $G$ such that, for every square with horizontal and vertical sides and all four vertices in $G$, the sum of the integers assigned to the four vertices is the same as the corresponding sum for any other such square. A magic grid is formed so that the product of all 36 integers is the smallest possible value greater than 1. What is this product?
