Scientist have succeeded to find new numbers between real numbers with strong microscopes. Now real numbers are extended in a new larger system we have an order on it (which if induces normal order on $ \mathbb R$), and also 4 operations addition, multiplication,... and these operation have all properties the same as $ \mathbb R$.

Given a positive integer $k$. Prove that there are infinitely many positive integers $n$ satisfy the following conditions at the same time:
a) $n$ has at least $k$ distinct prime divisors
b) All prime divisors other than $3$ of $n$ have the form $4t+1$, with $t$ some positive integer.
c) $n | 2^{\sigma(n)}-1$
Here $\sigma(n)$ demotes the sum of the positive integer divisors of $n$.

The first question was asked in Set 4. The second question was asked in Set 5.
Question) Eshaan the Elephant has a long memory. He remembers that out of the integers $0, 1, 2, \dots, 15$, one of them is special. Submit to the grader an ordered 4-tuple of subsets of $0, 1, 2, \dots, 15$ and they will tell you whether the special number is in each. You can then submit your guess for the special number on the next round for points. (You might want to write down a copy of your submission somewhere other than your answer sheet. Note that this question itself is not worth any points, though the corresponding problem in Set 5 is.)

Let be four positive integers $m, n, p, q$, with $p < m$ given and $q < n$. Take four points $A(0; 0), B(p; 0), C (m; q)$ and $D(m; n)$ in the coordinate plane. Consider the paths $f$ from $A$ to $D$ and the paths $g$ from $B$ to $C$ such that when going along $f$ or $g$, one goes only in the positive directions of coordinates and one can only change directions (from the positive direction of one axe coordinate into the the positive direction of the other axe coordinate) at the points with integral coordinates. Let $S$ be the number of couples $(f, g)$ such that $f$ and $g$ have no common points. Prove that
\[S = \binom{n}{m+n} \cdot \binom{q}{m+q-p} - \binom{q}{m+q} \cdot \binom{n}{m+n-p}.\]

Two people throw coins. One throws his coin $10$ times, the other throws his $11$ times . What is the probability that the second coin fell showing "heads" a greater number of times than the first?
(For those not familiar with Probability Theory this question could have been reformulated thus : Consider various arrangements of a $21$ digit number in which each digit must be a " $1$ " or a "$2$" . Among all such numbers what fraction of them will have more occurrences of the digit "$2$" among the last $11$ digits than among the first $10$?)

Given a finite set $K_0$ of points (in the plane or space). The sequence of sets $K_1, K_2, ... , K_n, ...$ is constructed according to the rule: [i]we take all the points of $K_i$, add all the symmetric points with respect to all its points, and, thus obtain $K_{i+1}$.[/i]
a) Let $K_0$ consist of two points $A$ and $B$ with the distance $1$ unit between them. For what $n$ the set $K_n$ contains the point that is $1000$ units far from $A$?
b) Let $K_0$ consist of three points that are the vertices of the equilateral triangle with the unit square. Find the area of minimal convex polygon containing $K_n. K_0$ below is the set of the unit volume tetrahedron vertices.

Choose a four-digit number (none of them zero) and, starting with it, build a list of $21$ different numbers, each with four digits, that satisfies the following rule: after writing each new number in the list, all the averages are calculated Between two digits of that number, those averages that do not give a whole number are discarded, and with the rest a four-digit number is formed that will occupy the next place in the list. For example, if $2946$ was written in the list, the next one can be $3333$ or $3434$ or $5345$ or any other number armed with the figures $3$, $4$ or $5$.

Let $k$ be a positive integer. A positive integer $n$ is called a $k$-good number if it satisfies
the following two conditions:
1. $n$ has exactly $2k$ digits in decimal representation (it cannot have leading zeros).
2. If the first $k$ digits and the last $k$ digits of $n$ are considered as two separate $k$-digit
numbers (which may have leading zeros), the square of their sum is equal to $n$.
For example, $2025$ is a $2$-good number because
\[(20 + 25)^2 = 2025.\]
Find all $3$-good numbers.

A flea jumps in a straight numbered line. It jumps first from point $0$ to point $1$. Afterwards, if its last jump was from $A$ to $B$, then the next jump is from $B$ to one of the points $B + (B - A) - 1$, $B + (B - A)$, $B + (B-A) + 1$.
Prove that if the flea arrived twice at the point $n$, $n$ positive integer, then it performed at least $\lceil 2\sqrt n\rceil$ jumps.

Ed and Ann both have lemonade with their lunch. Ed orders the regular size. Ann gets the large lemonade, which is $50\%$ more than the regular. After both consume $\tfrac{3}{4}$ of their drinks, Ann gives Ed a third of what she has left, and $2$ additional ounces. When they finish their lemonades they realize that they both drank the same amount. How many ounces of lemonade did they drink together?

On the table there are $20$ coins of weights $1,2,3,\ldots,15,37,38,39,40$ and $41$ grams. They all look alike but their colours are all distinct. Now Miss Adams knows the weight and colour of each coin, but Mr. Bean knows only the weights of the coins. There is also a balance on the table, and each comparison of weights of two groups of coins is called an operation. Miss Adams wants to tell Mr. Bean which coin is the $1$ gram coin by performing some operations. What is the minimum number of operations she needs to perform?
