8.4. In a chess tournament, each of the 10 players played one game against each other, and Petya came in last place (scored fewer points than any other participant). Then two players were disqualified, and all points earned in matches against them were annulled, and these two players were removed from the table. It tur... | Answer: 4 points.
Solution. In a tournament with 10 players, played in a single round, $\frac{10 \cdot 9}{2}=45$ points are distributed. Therefore, there will be a player who scores no more than $45: 10=4.5$ points. This means that the player who finished in absolute last place scored no more than 4 points. Similarly,... | 4 | Logic and Puzzles | math-word-problem | Yes | Yes | olympiads | false |
8.2. In the notebook, all irreducible fractions with the numerator 15 are written, which are greater than $\frac{1}{16}$ and less than $\frac{1}{15} \cdot$ How many such fractions are written in the notebook? | Answer: 8 fractions.
Solution. We look for all suitable irreducible fractions of the form $\frac{n}{15}$. Since $\frac{1}{16} < \frac{15}{n}$, then $\frac{15}{225} > \frac{15}{n}$, and $n > 225$. Therefore, $225 < n < 240$. The fraction $\frac{n}{15}$ is irreducible, meaning $n$ is not divisible by 3 or 5.

8.3. In the Banana Republic, parliamentary elections were held in which all residents participated. All those who voted for the "Mandarin" party love mandarins. Among those who voted for other parties, $90\%$ do not like mandarins (the rest do like them). What percentage of the votes did the "Mandarin" party receive in... | Answer: $40 \%$.
Solution. Let $x \%$ be the percentage of votes for the party "Mandarin". Then the percentage of votes for the other parties is $(100-x) \%$. One tenth of $(100-x) \%$ love mandarins, so we get the equation $x+(100-x) / 10=46$. Solving this, we find that $x=40$.

Problem 4.2. Petya has 25 coins, each with a denomination of $1, 2, 5$, or 10 rubles. Among these coins, 19 are not two-ruble coins, 20 are not ten-ruble coins, and 16 are not one-ruble coins. How many five-ruble coins does Petya have? | Answer: 5.
Solution. Since among Petya's coins, 19 are not two-ruble coins, Petya has a total of 6 two-ruble coins. Similarly, it follows that Petya has 5 ten-ruble coins and 9 one-ruble coins.
Thus, Petya has $25-6-5-9=5$ five-ruble coins. | 5 | Logic and Puzzles | math-word-problem | Yes | Yes | olympiads | false |

Problem 9.5. Buratino has many coins of 5 and 6 soldi, more than 10 of each type. Coming to the store and buying a book for $N$ soldi, he realized that he could not pay for it without receiving change. What is the greatest value that the natural number $N$ can take if it is no more than 50? | Answer: 19.
Solution. It is easy to check that with $N=19$ change is necessary.
Notice that numbers from 20 to 24 do not meet the condition, as they can be paid for without change: $N=20=4 \cdot 5, 21=3 \cdot 5+6, 22=2 \cdot 5+2 \cdot 6, 23=5+3 \cdot 6, 24=4 \cdot 6$.

Solution. From the condition, it follows that $\frac{1}{6}=\frac{1}{a}+\frac{1}{b} \leqslant \frac{2}{b}$, from which $b \leqslant 12$. Also, $\frac{1}{6}=\frac{1}{a}+\frac{1}{b}>\frac{1}{b}$, so $b>6$. Therefore, $b$ can take values from 7 to 12 inclusive.

## Solution:
Let $A C$ and $M N$ intersect at point $O$ (see the first figure on the right), $S_{\triangle A B C}=2017=S$.
We will prove that $S_{\triangle A D C}=S_{\triangle A B C}$, then $S_{A B C D}=2 S$.

Solution. Since $A D \| B C$, we have $\angle C B D=\angle B D A$. Then triangles $A B D$ and $D C B$ are similar by the first criterion. Therefore, $\frac{64}{B D}=\frac{A D}{B D}=\frac{B D}{B C}=\frac{B D}{36}$, from which we find $B D=\sqrt{64 \cdot 36}=48$. | 48 | Geometry | math-word-problem | Yes | Yes | olympiads | false |

9.7. On the board, 99 numbers were written, none of which are equal. In a notebook, $\frac{99 \cdot 98}{2}$ numbers were written—all differences between two numbers from the board (each time subtracting the smaller number from the larger one). It turned out that the number 1 was written exactly 85 times in the notebook... | Answer. $d=7$.
Solution. We will prove that $d \geqslant 7$. All numbers on the board can be divided into chains of numbers of the form $a, a+1, a+2, \ldots, a+t$ such that numbers from different chains do not differ by exactly 1. Such a partition is not difficult to construct by connecting any two numbers that differ... | 7 | Combinatorics | math-word-problem | Yes | Yes | olympiads | false |
9.9. Find the largest number $m$ such that for any positive numbers $a, b$, and $c$, the sum of which is 1, the inequality
$$
\sqrt{\frac{a b}{c+a b}}+\sqrt{\frac{b c}{a+b c}}+\sqrt{\frac{c a}{b+c a}} \geqslant m
$$
holds.
(l. Emelyanov) | Answer. $m=1$.
First solution. First, we prove that $m=1$ satisfies the requirements of the problem. Notice that $ab + c = ab + c(a + b + c) = (c + a)(c + b)$. Therefore,
\[
\begin{aligned}
& \sqrt{\frac{ab}{c + ab}} + \sqrt{\frac{bc}{a + bc}} + \sqrt{\frac{ca}{b + ca}} = \\

8.5. Snow White entered a room where 30 chairs were arranged around a round table. Some of the chairs were occupied by dwarfs. It turned out that Snow White could not sit down without having someone next to her. What is the minimum number of dwarfs that could have been at the table? Explain how the dwarfs should have b... | Answer: 10.
Solution: If there were three consecutive empty chairs at the table in some place, Snow White could sit down in such a way that no one would sit next to her. Therefore, in any set of three consecutive chairs, at least one must be occupied by a dwarf. Since there are 30 chairs in total, there cannot be fewe... | 10 | Combinatorics | math-word-problem | Yes | Yes | olympiads | false |
4. Let $p(x)=2 x^{3}-3 x^{2}+1$. How many squares of integers are among the numbers $p(1), p(2), \ldots, p(2016)$? | # Answer: 32.
## Solution:
Notice that $p(x)=(x-1)^{2}(2 x+1)$.
For an integer $x(1 \leq x \leq 2016)$, the number $p(x)=(x-1)^{2}(2 x+1)$ is a perfect square of an integer either when $x=1(p(1)=0)$, or (for $x \geq 2$) when the number $2 x+1$ is a perfect square.
Note that for $x \geq 2$, the inequality holds: $5 ... | 32 | Algebra | math-word-problem | Yes | Yes | olympiads | false |

7.3. In the train, there are 18 identical cars. In some cars, exactly half of the seats are free, in some others - exactly one third of the seats are free, and in the rest, all seats are occupied. At the same time, in the entire train, exactly one ninth of all seats are free. In how many cars are all seats occupied? | Answer: in 13 carriages.
Solution. Let the number of passengers in each carriage be taken as a unit. We can reason in different ways.
First method. Since exactly one ninth of all seats in the train are free, this is equivalent to two carriages being completely free. The number 2 can be uniquely decomposed into the su... | 13 | Number Theory | math-word-problem | Yes | Yes | olympiads | false |
7.4. In grandmother's garden, apples have ripened: Antonovka, Grushovka, and White Naliv. If there were three times as many Antonovka apples, the total number of apples would increase by $70 \%$. If there were three times as many Grushovka apples, it would increase by $50 \%$. By what percentage would the total number ... | Answer: increased by $80 \%$.
Solution. First method. If the amount of each type of apple were three times as much, the total number of apples would increase by $200 \%$. Of this, $70 \%$ is due to the increase in Antonovka, and $50 \%$ is due to the increase in Grushovka. Therefore, the increase due to White Naliv wo... | 80 | Algebra | math-word-problem | Yes | Yes | olympiads | false |
7.6. In each cell of a $5 \times 5$ square, exactly one diagonal has been drawn. A vertex of a cell is free if it is not the endpoint of any of the drawn diagonals. Find the maximum possible number of free vertices. | Answer: 18 vertices.
Solution. Example. See Fig. 7.6a. On each of the six horizontal lines, three vertices are free.
Estimate. The total number of cell vertices: $6 \cdot 6=36$. Let's select nine cells that do not share any vertices (see Fig. 7.6b). They contain all 36 vertices. In each cell, a diagonal is drawn, so ... | 18 | Combinatorics | math-word-problem | Yes | Yes | olympiads | false |
3. On Eeyore's Birthday, Winnie-the-Pooh, Piglet, and Owl came to visit. When Owl left, the average age in this company decreased by 2 years, and when Piglet left, the average age decreased by another 1 year. How many years older is Owl than Piglet?
Answer: Owl is 6 years older than Piglet. | Solution. Let the average age of those who remained after Piglet be x, and Piglet's age be y. Then $2x + y = 3(x + 1)$, which means $y = x + 3$. Let Owl's age be K. Then $3(x + 1) + K = 4(x + 3)$, which means $K = x + 9$. Therefore, Owl is older than Piglet by $(x + 9) - (x + 3) = 6$ years.

6.3. In the park, all bicycle paths run from north to south or from west to east. Petya and Kolya simultaneously started from point $A$ and rode their bicycles at constant speeds: Petya - along the route $A-B-C$, Kolya - along the route $A-D-E-F-C$ (see fig.), and both spent 12 minutes on the road. It is known that Kol... | Answer: 1 minute.
Solution. Draw the segment $D H$, as shown in Fig. 2. Kolya travels 1.2 times faster than Petya, so it would take him $12 / 1.2=10$ minutes to travel the route $A-B-C$. The difference in time

Solution. Note that two liars cannot sit next to each other (otherwise, each of them would be telling the truth). Therefore, no liar can say the second phrase.
On the other hand, 3 knights also cannot sit next to each other (otherwise, the middle one would have lied by saying that he has a neighbor who i... | 8 | Logic and Puzzles | math-word-problem | Yes | Yes | olympiads | false |
1. Five consecutive natural numbers were written on the board, and then one number was erased. It turned out that the sum of the remaining four numbers is 2015. Find the smallest of these four numbers. | Answer: 502
Solution. If the smallest number is K, then the sum of all numbers is not less than $\mathrm{K}+(\mathrm{K}+1)+(\mathrm{K}+2)+ (\mathrm{K}+3)=4 \mathrm{~K}+6$ and not more than $\mathrm{K}+(\mathrm{K}+2)+(\mathrm{K}+3)+(\mathrm{K}+4)=4 \mathrm{~K}+9$.
