10.1. What two digits need to be appended to the right of the number 2013 so that the resulting six-digit number is divisible by 101? Find all possible solutions.
Answer: 94, the obtained number will be equal to 201394. Solution: The remainder of dividing the number $\overline{2013 x y}$ by 101 is $\overline{x y}+7$ and this must be divisible by 101. This is greater than 0 but less than 202, so $\overline{x y}+7=101, \overline{x y}=94, x=9, y=4$. Grading: Just the answer with ...

Answer: 20 and 13. Solution. If everything is simply raised to the cube and like terms are combined, we get $\sqrt[3]{20-x} \sqrt[3]{13-x}(\sqrt[3]{20-x}-\sqrt[3]{13-x})=0$. The bracket is not equal to 0, so either $x=20$ or $x=13$. Evaluation. Just the answer with verification: 1 point. Loss of a solution - minus 3 ...

Solution. It is sufficient to prove that point $B$ belongs to segments $O_{1} Q$ and $O_{2} P$. Triangles $O_{2} O_{1} B$ and $O_{2} O_{1} A$ are equal by three sides, so $\angle O_{2} O_{1} B=\angle O_{2} O_{1} A$. On the other hand, segments $O_{2} A$ and $O_{2} Q$ are equal, as radii, so $\angle O_{2} O_{1} A=\angl...

Answer: 21 and 19. Solution: Let Lada have guessed the number $a$, and Lera the number $b$. Then the new numbers $0.95 a$ and $1.05 b$ are equal, that is, $0.95 a = 1.05 b$. Simplifying this equation, we get $19 a = 21 b$. The left side is divisible by 19, so the right side must also be divisible by 19. Since 21 and 1...

Answer: $10: 20$ Solution 1: Understand that if Fedya has walked some distance before Vera sets off, then from the moment Vera starts until they meet, he will walk a third of the remaining distance. This means that the midpoint of the entire distance is a third of the remaining distance, so Fedya covers one quarter of...

Answer. Yes. Solution. First, divide the board with two middle grid lines into 4 squares of 4 by 4 cells. If the marked cells lie in different squares, then by cutting the board along one of the middle lines, we obtain the required partition. Now suppose both marked cells lie in one 4 by 4 square, which we can conside...

Answer. Each of the numbers $x, y, z$ is not greater than the sum of the other two. Solution. 1) Necessity of the condition. According to the condition, between any two nearest letters $A$ on the circle, there should be at least one of the letters $B$ or $C$. Therefore, the total number of $y+z$ letters $B$ and $C$ is...

10.5. Which natural numbers $n$ can be represented as $n=[a, b]+[a, c]+[b, c]$ for some natural numbers $a, b, c$? Here $[x, y]$ denotes the least common multiple of natural numbers $x$ and $y$.
Answer. For all $n$ that are not powers of two. Solution. 1) Let $a=2^{k} \cdot a_{1}, a=2^{l} \cdot b_{1}, a=2^{m} \cdot c_{1}$, where the numbers $a_{1}, b_{1}, c_{1}$ are odd. Due to symmetry, we can assume that $k \leq l \leq m$. Then $[a, b]=\left[2^{k} \cdot a_{1}, 2^{l} \cdot b_{1}\right]=2^{l}\left[a_{1}, b_{1...

8.1. Experienced sawyer Garik knows how to make cuts. In one day of continuous work, he can saw 600 nine-meter logs into identical three-meter logs (they differ from the original only in length). How much time will the experienced sawyer Garik need to saw 400 twelve-meter logs (they differ from the nine-meter logs only...
Answer: one day Solution: to turn a 9-meter log into 3 three-meter pieces, 2 cuts are needed. Therefore, Garik makes $2 * 600=1200$ cuts per day. To turn a 12-meter log into three-meter pieces, 3 cuts are needed, and for 400 logs, $400 * 3=1200$ cuts are needed, which means it will take the same amount of time. Crite...

8.4. Find all solutions to the equation $4[x]=25\{x\}-4.5$. Here $[x]$ denotes the integer part of the number $x$, that is, the greatest integer not exceeding the number $x$, and $\{x\}$ is the fractional part of the number $x$, which by definition is equal to $x-[x]$.
Answer: $x=k+(8 k+9) / 50$ for $k=-1,0, \ldots, 5-$ a total of 7 fractions. Solution: multiply the equation by 2 and transform it. We get the equation $8[x]+9=50\{x\}$. Notice that the right side is a non-negative number, and it is no more than 50, that is, $0 \leq 8[x]+9 \leq 50$, from which $-9 / 8 \leq[x] \leq 41 /...

Answer: 120 Solution: Consider any pair of friends. Their "friendship" was counted exactly once, as it is included in the sum by the person who arrived later than their friend. Therefore, after everyone has arrived, the sum of the numbers on the door will be equal to the total number of friendships between people. Sim...

Solution: If Losyash launched the boats from one place, they would arrive every half hour. But since he is walking, the next boat has to travel a shorter distance than the previous one. In half an hour, the distance between Losyash and the last boat will be $(10-4) \cdot 0.5=3$. This means that the distance between adj...

Solution: The original number was divisible by 8. Therefore, the number formed by its last three digits is also divisible by 8. From the condition, this number has the form $\overline{89 x}$. Clearly, $x=6$ fits, and other numbers divisible by 8 do not fit into this decade. The entire number is divisible by 9, which me...

Answer: 90 and 25, respectively. Solution. The total number of visits to the swimming pool by six friends over 100 days is $75 \cdot 6 = 450$, so the number of days when the pool was visited by at least five of them is no more than $\frac{450}{5} = 90$.
