10.5. Given an odd number $n>10$. Find the number of ways to arrange the natural numbers $1,2,3, \ldots, n$ in a circle in some order so that each number is a divisor of the sum of the two adjacent numbers. (Ways that differ by rotation or reflection are considered the same.) (D. Khramov)
Answer. Two ways Solution. Consider an arbitrary arrangement of numbers from 1 to $n$ that satisfies the conditions. Suppose that two even numbers $x$ and $y$ are adjacent, and the next number is $z$. Since $x+z$ is divisible by $y$, the number $z$ is also even. Continuing this movement around the circle, we get that ...

9.1. Given quadratic trinomials $f_{1}(x), f_{2}(x), \ldots, f_{100}(x)$ with the same coefficients for $x^{2}$, the same coefficients for $x$, but different constant terms; each of them has two roots. For each trinomial $f_{i}(x)$, one root was chosen and denoted by $x_{i}$. What values can the sum $f_{2}\left(x_{1}\r...
Answer: Only 0. Solution: Let the $i$-th quadratic polynomial have the form $f_{i}(x)=a x^{2}+b x+c_{i}$. Then $f_{2}\left(x_{1}\right)=a x_{1}^{2}+b x_{1}+c_{2}=\left(a x_{1}^{2}+b x_{1}+c_{1}\right)+\left(c_{2}-c_{1}\right)=c_{2}-c_{1}$, since $f_{1}\left(x_{1}\right)=0$.

Answer. In 2 loads. Solution. We will show that Archimedes can use the bag only twice. Let him first put in the bag ingots weighing 1, 2, 3, and 5 kg, and then ingots weighing 1, 4, and 6 kg. In both cases, the bag will not tear. We will prove that this could only happen if the 1 kg ingot was used twice. Indeed, if A...

9.1. In the village, seven people live. Some of them are liars (always lie), and the rest are knights (always tell the truth). Each of them said about each of the others whether they are a knight or a liar. Out of the 42 answers received, 24 were “He is a liar.” What is the smallest number of knights that can live in t...
Answer: 3. Solution: The phrase "He is a knight" would be said by a knight about a knight and by a liar about a liar, while the phrase "He is a liar" would be said by a knight about a liar and by a liar about a knight. Therefore, in each pair of knight-liar, the phrase "He is a liar" will be said twice. Since this phr...

Answer: 10 Solution. In the first 24 boxes, there are a total of $6 \cdot 25=150$ matches. In the last three boxes, there are 15 matches. Therefore, the 4th from the end (or 24th from the start) has 10 matches. Then, in boxes $24, 23, 22, 21$, there are 25 matches in total, meaning in boxes $21, 22, 23$, there are 15 ...

5. A $7 \times 7$ board has a chessboard coloring. In one move, you can choose any $m \times n$ rectangle of cells and repaint all its cells to the opposite color (black cells become white, white cells become black). What is the minimum number of moves required to make the board monochromatic? Answer: in 6 moves.
Solution. Consider segments of length equal to the side of a cell, separating pairs of cells adjacent to the side of the board. Along each side of the board, there are 6 such segments, totaling $6 \cdot 4=24$. Each of these segments separates cells that initially have different colors, so each segment must end up on th...

Answer: 4 Solution: First, let's prove that three divisions are not enough. There are a total of 10 segments with endpoints at five points. Therefore, if three divisions are made, each length from 1 to 10 should be obtained exactly once. If any division is made at a non-integer distance from the left end, there will b...

66. An isosceles triangle \(ABC\) with a perimeter of 12 is inscribed in a circle \(\omega\). Points \(P\) and \(Q\) are the midpoints of the arcs \(ABC\) and \(ACB\) respectively. The tangent to the circle \(\omega\) at point \(A\) intersects the ray \(PQ\) at point \(R\). It turns out that the midpoint of segment \(A...
66. Answer: 4. Let $I_{A}, I_{B}, I_{C}$ be the centers of the excircles of triangle $ABC$, touching sides $BC, CA$, and $AB$ respectively. Then the lines $A I_{A}, B I_{B}, C I_{C}$ will be the angle bisectors of triangle $ABC$, and the lines $I_{B} I_{C}, I_{C} I_{A}, I_{A} I_{B}$ will be its external angle bisectors...

49. What is the maximum number of solutions that the equation $\max \left\{a_{1} x+b_{1}, \ldots, a_{10} x+b_{10}\right\}=0$ can have, if $a_{1}, \ldots, a_{10}, b_{1}, \ldots, b_{10}$ are real numbers, and all $a_{i}$ are not equal to 0?
49. Answer: 2 solutions. For example, 5 functions $-x-1$ and 5 functions $x-1$. Suppose this equation has three roots: $u<v<w$. At point $v$, one of the linear functions $a_{i} x+b_{i}$ is zero. On the other hand, its values at points $u$ and $w$ do not exceed zero. However, such a linear function can only be a consta...

52. In the table, there are 25 columns and 300 rows, and Kostya painted all its cells in three colors. Then Lesha, looking at the table, names one of the three colors for each row and marks all the cells of this color in that row. (If there are no cells of the specified color in the row, he marks nothing in it.) After ...
52. Answer: Two columns. To leave at least two columns, Lesha must for each row name a color that does not appear in the first two cells of that row. With this strategy, the first two columns will not be crossed out. Note now that $300=C_{25^{2}}$. Using this observation, we can associate each row with its own pair of...

30. What is the minimum number of colors needed to color the cells of a $5 \times 5$ square so that among any three consecutive cells in a row, column, or diagonal, there are no cells of the same color? (M. Antipov)
30. Answer: in five colors. Consider a cross of five cells, the central cell of which coincides with the central cell of the square. By the condition, three cells in its column have different colors. Similarly, the colors of the three cells in its row are also different. Finally, any two cells at the "ends" of the cro...

36. Many city residents engage in dancing, many in mathematics, and at least one in both. Those who engage only in dancing are exactly $p+1$ times more than those who engage only in mathematics, where $p-$ is some prime number. If you square the number of all mathematicians, you get the number of all dancers. How many ...
36. Answer: 1 person is engaged in both dancing and mathematics. Let $a$ people be engaged only in mathematics, and $b \geqslant 1$ people be engaged in both dancing and mathematics. Then, according to the condition, $(a+b)^{2}=(p+1) a+b$. Subtract $a+b$ from both sides: $(a+b)^{2}-(a+b)=p a$. Factor out the common te...

Find the first digit after the decimal point.
66. Answer: the first digit after the decimal point is 5. To start, let's simplify the given sum. Each term can be written as a difference $$ \begin{aligned} \frac{2 \cdot 5 \cdot \ldots \cdot(3 k-1)}{3 \cdot 6 \cdot 9 \cdot \ldots \cdot(3 k+3)}=\frac{2 \cdot 5 \cdot \ldots \cdot(3 k-1) \cdot(3 k+3)}{3 \cdot 6 \cdot ...

5. Answer: by $4 \%$. Let the side of the larger square be denoted by $a$, and the side of the smaller square by $b$. As a result of cutting out the smaller square from the perimeter of the sheet, one segment of length $b$ disappears, and three such segments appear instead, meaning the perimeter increases by $2 b$.

Nevertheless, the alarm rang exactly at the scheduled time...
