4. Sasha, Lёsha, and Kolya started a 100 m race at the same time. When Sasha finished, Lёsha was ten meters behind him, and when Lёsha finished, Kolya was ten meters behind him. How far apart were Sasha and Kolya when Sasha finished? (It is assumed that all the boys run at constant, but of course, not equal speeds.) | Answer: 19 m.
Solution: Kolya's speed is 0.9 of Lesha's speed. At the moment when Sasha finished, Lesha had run 90 m, and Kolya had run $0.9 \cdot 90=81$ m. Therefore, the distance between Sasha and Kolya was 19 m. | 19 | Logic and Puzzles | math-word-problem | Yes | Yes | olympiads | false |

Then, cement must be delivered to each warehouse, except $S$, in... | 2010 | Combinatorics | math-word-problem | Yes | Yes | olympiads | false |
10.1. Given natural numbers $M$ and $N$, both greater than ten, consisting of the same number of digits, and such that $M = 3N$. To obtain the number $M$, one of the digits of $N$ must be increased by 2, and each of the other digits must be increased by an odd digit. What digit could the number $N$ end with? Find all p... | Answer. The digit 6.
Solution. By the condition, $M=3 N$, so the number $A=M-N=2 N$ is even. However, by the condition, the number $A$ is composed of odd digits and the digit 2. Therefore, $A$ ends in 2. Thus, the number $N$, which is half of $A$, ends in either 1 or 6.

Problem 2. Pentagon $A B C D E$ is inscribed in circle $\omega$. Diagonal $A C$ is the diameter of circle $\omega$. Find $\angle B E C$, if $\angle A D B=20^{\circ}$. | Answer: $70^{\circ}$.
Solution. Fig. 4. Since $\angle A D B=20^{\circ}$, the arc $A B$ is $40^{\circ}$. Since $A C$ is a diameter, the arc $A B C$ is $180^{\circ}$, so the arc $B C$ is $180^{\circ}-40^{\circ}=140^{\circ}$. The angle $B E C$ subtends the arc $B C$, which means it is equal to $140^{\circ} / 2=70^{\circ}... | 70 | Geometry | math-word-problem | Yes | Yes | olympiads | false |

5. In an $n \times n$ square, there are 1014 dominoes (each covering two adjacent cells). No two dominoes share any points (even corner points). For what smallest $n$ is this possible? | Answer. For $n=77$.
Solution. Attach four cells to the right and below each domino so that they form a $2 \times 3$ rectangle (if the domino is vertical) or a $3 \times 2$ rectangle (if it is horizontal). If the rectangles of two dominoes have at least one common cell, then the dominoes have a common point. Therefore,... | 77 | Combinatorics | math-word-problem | Yes | Yes | olympiads | false |
1. (7 points) Percival's castle had a square shape. One day, Percival decided to expand his domain and added a square extension to the castle. As a result, the perimeter of the castle increased by $10 \%$. By what percentage did the area of the castle increase? | Answer: $4 \%$.
Solution. Let the width of the castle be $a$, and the width of the extension be $b$. Then the original perimeter is $4 a$, and the final perimeter is $4 a+2 b$. Therefore:
$$
1.1 \cdot 4 a=4 a+2 b \Leftrightarrow b=0.2 a

Nезнайка named four numbers, and Ponchik wrote down all their pairwise sums on six cards. Then he lost one card, and the numbers left on the remaining cards were $270, 360, 390, 500, 620$. What number did Ponchik write on the lost card? | Answer: 530.
Solution. Let the original numbers be $a \leq b \leq c \leq d$. Suppose the card with the maximum sum is lost. Then this sum is $c+d$. Therefore, $a+b=270$ and $a+b+c+d>270+620=890$. On the other hand, the sum of all numbers on the cards is $3a+3b+2c+2d=270+360+390+500+620=2140$. We get that $2140>1780+2c... | 530 | Algebra | math-word-problem | Yes | Yes | olympiads | false |

We will prove that triangles $N A M$ and $C A B$ are similar with a similarity coefficient of $\cos A$. The ratio of the leg $A M$ to the hypotenuse $A B$ is $\cos A$. Similarly, $A M / A C=\cos A$.
Since angle $A$ is common to both triangles
 so that the product of the remaining factors ends in 2? | Answer: 20.
Solution. From the number 99! all factors that are multiples of 5 must be removed, otherwise the product will end in 0. There are 19 such factors in total.

Estimate. In the table, 24 independent 2x2 squares can be placed. In the first round, at least one cell in each of them was marked. Since each of them ended up with an odd number of marke... | 48 | Combinatorics | math-word-problem | Yes | Yes | olympiads | false |
9.1. It is known that $a^{2}+b=b^{2}+c=c^{2}+a$. What values can the expression
$$
a\left(a^{2}-b^{2}\right)+b\left(b^{2}-c^{2}\right)+c\left(c^{2}-a^{2}\right) ?
$$
take? | Answer: 0.
Solution. From the condition, it follows that $a^{2}-b^{2}=c-b$, $b^{2}-c^{2}=a-c$, and $c^{2}-a^{2}=b-a$. Therefore, $a\left(a^{2}-b^{2}\right)+b\left(b^{2}-c^{2}\right)+c\left(c^{2}-a^{2}\right)=a(c-b)+b(a-c)+c(b-a)=0$.

9.4. From Zlatoust to Miass, a "GAZ", a "MAZ", and a "KAMAZ" set off simultaneously. The "KAMAZ", having reached Miass, immediately turned back and met the "MAZ" 18 km from Miass, and the "GAZ" - 25 km from Miass. The "MAZ", having reached Miass, also immediately turned back and met the "GAZ" 8 km from Miass. What is t... | Answer: 60 km.
Solution. Let the distance between the cities be $x$ km, and the speeds of the trucks: "GAZ" $-g$ km/h, "MAZ" - $m$ km/h, "KAMAZ" $-k$ km/h. For each pair of vehicles, we equate their travel time until they meet. We get $\frac{x+18}{k}=\frac{x-18}{m}, \frac{x+25}{k}=\frac{x-25}{g}$ and $\frac{x+8}{m}=\f... | 60 | Algebra | math-word-problem | Yes | Yes | olympiads | false |

9.6. Waiting for customers, a watermelon seller sequentially weighed 20 watermelons (weighing 1 kg, 2 kg, 3 kg, ..., 20 kg), balancing the watermelon on one scale pan with one or two weights on the other pan (possibly identical). In the process, the seller wrote down on a piece of paper the weights he used. What is the... | Answer: 6 numbers.
Solution. Let's check that with weights of 1 kg, 3 kg, 5 kg, 7 kg, 9 kg, and 10 kg, one can weigh any of the given watermelons. Indeed, $2=1+1 ; 4=3+1 ; 6=5+1 ; 8=7+1 ; 11=10+1$; $12=9+3 ; 13=10+3 ; 14=9+5 ; 15=10+5 ; 16=9+7 ; 17=10+7 ; 18=9+9 ; 19=10+9 ;$ $20=10+10$.

2. The working day at the enterprise lasted 8 hours. During this time, the labor productivity was as planned for the first six hours, and then it decreased by $25 \%$. The director (in agreement with the labor collective) extended the shift by one hour. As a result, it turned out that again the first six hours were wor... | 2. Answer: by 8 percent. Solution. Let's take 1 as the planned labor productivity (the volume of work performed per hour). Then before the shift extension, workers completed $6+1.5=7.5$ units of work per shift. And after the extension, $8+2.1=8.1$ units. Thus, the overall productivity per shift became $8.1: 7.5 \times ... | 8 | Algebra | math-word-problem | Yes | Yes | olympiads | false |
6. In pentagon $A B C D E \quad A B=A E=C D=1, \quad B C+D E=1$, $\angle A B C=\angle A E D=90^{\circ}$. Find the area of the pentagon. | 6. Answer: 1. Solution. Extend the segment $C B$ beyond point $B$ to segment $B F=D E$, and then draw segments $C A, C E$ and $A F$. It is easy to see that triangles $C D E$ and $A B F$ are equal. Therefore, $C E=A F$ and the areas of the pentagon and quadrilateral $A E C F$ coincide. But triangles $A E C$ and $A F C$ ... | 1 | Geometry | math-word-problem | Yes | Yes | olympiads | false |
1. (7 points) In a building, on all floors in all entrances there is an equal number of apartments (more than one). Also, in all entrances there are an equal number of floors. The number of floors is greater than the number of apartments per floor, but less than the number of entrances. How many floors are there in the... | Answer: 11.
Solution. Let the number of apartments per floor be K, the number of floors be F, and the number of entrances be E. According to the condition, $1<K<F<E$. The number 715 can be factored into numbers greater than one in only one way: $715=5 \cdot 11 \cdot 13$. Therefore, $K=5, F=11, E=13$.

11.1. Anya left the house, and after some time Vanya left from the same place and soon caught up with Anya. If Vanya had walked twice as fast, he would have caught up with Anya three times faster. How many times faster would Vanya have caught up with Anya (compared to the actual time) if, in addition, Anya walked twice... | Answer: 7.
Solution: Let Ane's speed be $v$, and Vanya's speed be $V$. The distance Ane has walked is proportional to $v$, while Vanya catches up with her at a speed of $u=V-v$. When Vanya doubles his speed, this difference triples, i.e., $u+V=2V-v=3u$. From this, we get $V=2u=2v$. If Vanya's speed doubles and Ane's s... | 7 | Algebra | math-word-problem | Yes | Yes | olympiads | false |
11.2. In a box, there are white and blue balls, with the number of white balls being 8 times the number of blue balls. It is known that if you pull out 100 balls, there will definitely be at least one blue ball among them. How many balls are there in the box? | Answer: 108.
Solution: Since the number of white balls in the box is 8 times the number of blue balls, the total number of balls in the box is divisible by 9. Since 100 balls are drawn from it, the smallest possible number of balls in the box $n=108$, of which 12 are blue and 96 are white. Since there are fewer than a... | 108 | Number Theory | math-word-problem | Yes | Yes | olympiads | false |
