[ Decimal numeral system] A 1992-digit number is written. Each two-digit number formed by adjacent digits is divisible by 17 or 23. The last digit of the number is 1. What is the first? #
Let's consider all two-digit numbers divisible by 17 or 23. Recall problem 41. ## Solution List all two-digit numbers divisible by 17 or 23. These are 17, 34, 51, 68, 85, 23, 46, 69, 92. The last digits of all these numbers are different, so the number can be uniquely restored. The last digit is 1, which means the co...

After Clive assembled and wound his clock (see problem $\underline{32798}$), setting it by his grandfather's, it started running backward. How many times a day will it show the correct time?
The hour hands on Clive's clock and the correct clock will first coincide at the moment of setting the "correct" time. The next time this will happen is 6 hours after setting, when each of them will have made half a rotation. Of course, the minute hands will coincide then as well. And so on. ## Answer 4 times.

The pointer shifts twice for the total weight of $1.5+2.5=4$ kg, but only once for the weight of 3.5 kg. Therefore, the pointer shift is $4-3.5=0.5$ kg. Consequently, the correct weight of the bundles is half a kilogram less than what the scales show. ## Answer 1 and 2 kg.

How many three-digit numbers exist in which the digits 1, 2, 3 appear exactly once each? #
We can place any of the three digits in the first position, any of the two remaining digits in the second position, and the last remaining digit in the third position. Thus, we get a total of 6 numbers. ## Answer $3!=6$ numbers.

In the box, there are blue, red, and green pencils. In total, there are 20 pieces. Blue pencils are 6 times more than green ones, and there are fewer red pencils than blue ones. How many red pencils are in the box? #
The total number of blue and green pencils is divisible by 7. Therefore, they are either 7 or 14. In the first case, the number of red pencils is 13 more than the blue ones. Therefore, only the second option is possible: 6 red pencils. ## Answer 6 red pencils.

There are nuts in three boxes. In the first box, there are 6 kg fewer nuts than in the other two together. And in the second box, there are 10 kg fewer nuts than in the other two together. How many nuts are in the third box?
Let's combine both given conditions and obtain the following statement: "In the first and second boxes, there are $6+10$ kg fewer nuts than in the first, second, and two-thirds of the third box." From this, it follows that in two-thirds of the third box, there are 16 kg of nuts, which means that in the third box, there...

Bootin D. .. Several guard brigades of the same size slept for the same number of nights. Each guard slept more nights than there are guards in a brigade, but fewer than the number of brigades. How many guards are in a brigade if all the guards together slept for 1001 person-nights?
$1001=7 \cdot 11 \cdot 13$. ## Solution Let $s$ be the number of guards in a squad, $b$ be the number of squads, and $n$ be the number of nights one guard slept. Then $2 b n=1001$. But $1001=7 \cdot 11 \cdot 13$, and the numbers $7,11,13$ are prime. Considering that $s<n<b$, we get $s=7$. Answer 7 guards. Submit ...

Vitya watered 1003 bushes, of which 1000 he watered alone, and three - together with Anya. Similarly, Anya watered 1003 bushes, of which 1000 she watered alone, and three - with Vitya. Therefore, together they watered $1000+1000+3=2003$ bushes. Thus, $2006-2003=3$ rose bushes remained unwatered. ## Answer 3 bushes.

[ Factorization ] [ Equations in integers ] In how many ways can the number 1979 be represented as the difference of squares of natural numbers?
Let $1979=x^{2}-y^{2}=(x-y)(x+y)$. Since $1979-$ is a prime number, there is a unique representation of it as a product of two natural numbers $1979=1 \cdot 1979$. Since $x-y<x+y$, then $x-y=$ $1, x+y=1979$, from which $x=990, y=989$. ## Answer One way.

Tokarev S.i. The set of five-digit numbers $\{N_1, \dots, N_k\}$ is such that any five-digit number, all of whose digits are in increasing order, coincides in at least one digit with at least one of the numbers $N_1, \dots, N_k$. Find the smallest possible value of $k$.
Let's prove that the condition is satisfied by the set consisting of a single number $13579$. Indeed, let $\overline{a_1a_2a_3a_4a_5}$ be a five-digit number, the digits of which satisfy the inequalities $a_1 < a_2 < a_3 < a_4 < a_5$. Then, if $a_1 \ne 1$, we have $2 \leq a_1 < a_2$.
