A salon has the same amount of customers every day. Each customer needs 1 can of hairspray during the styling and is also given 1 can of hairspray to take home. The salon also buys an extra 5 cans of hairspray each day to ensure there is never a shortage. If the salon buys 33 cans of hairspray every day, how many customers do they have each day?
Removing the surplus hairspray shows the salon needs 33 total cans of hairspray – 5 surplus cans of hairspray = <<33-5=28>>28 cans of hairspray for each customer. Each customer needs 1 can of hairspray for styling + 1 can of hairspray to take home = <<1+1=2>>2 cans of hairspray. So the salon has a total of 28 cans of hairspray / 2 cans of hairspray per customer = <<28/2=14>>14 customers. #### 14

Zain has 10 more of each coin than Emerie. If Emerie has six quarters, seven dimes, and five nickels, how many coins does Zain have?
If Emerie has six quarters, Zain has 6+10 = <<6+10=16>>16 quarters. At the same time, Zain has 7+10 = <<7+10=17>>17 dimes, ten more than Emerie. The total number of quarters and dimes Zain has is 17+16 = <<17+16=33>>33 coins. Zain also has 10 more nickels than Emerie, a total of 10+5 = <<10+5=15>>15 nickels. In total, Zain has 33+15 = <<33+15=48>>48 coins. #### 48

Mr. Willson worked on making his furniture for 3/4 an hour on Monday. On Tuesday, he worked for half an hour. Then he worked for 2/3 an hour on Wednesday and 5/6 of an hour on Thursday. If he worked for 75 minutes on Friday, how many hours in all did he work from Monday to Friday?
Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, then Mr. Willson worked for 60 minutes x 3/4 = <<60*3/4=45>>45 minutes on Monday. He worked for 60 minutes/2 = <<60/2=30>>30 minutes on Tuesday. He worked for 60 minutes x 2/3 = <<60*2/3=40>>40 minutes on Wednesday. He worked for 60 minutes x 5/6 = <<60*5/6=50>>50 minutes on Thursday. So Mr. Willson worked for 45 + 30 + 40 + 50 + 75 = <<240=240>>240 minutes. In hours, it is equal to 240/60 = <<240/60=4>>4 hours. #### 4

Three cats sat on a fence, meowing at the moon. The first cat meowed 3 times per minute. The second cat meowed twice as frequently as the first cat. And the third cat meowed at one-third the frequency of the second cat. What is the combined total number of meows the three cats make in 5 minutes?
The second cat meowed twice as frequently as the three meows per minute from the first cat, for a total of 2*3=<<2*3=6>>6 meows per minute. The third cat meowed at one-third the frequency of the second cat, for a total of 6/3=<<6/3=2>>2 meows per minute. Thus, combined, the three cats meow 3+6+2=<<3+6+2=11>>11 times per minute. In five minutes, the three cats meow 5*11=<<5*11=55>>55 times. #### 55

Light of a blue laser (wavelength $\lambda=475 \, \text{nm}$ ) goes through a narrow slit which has width $d$ . After the light emerges from the slit, it is visible on a screen that is $ \text {2.013 m} $ away from the slit. The distance between the center of the screen and the first minimum band is $ \text {765 mm} $ . Find the width of the slit $d$ , in nanometers. *(Proposed by Ahaan Rungta)*

In a store, an Uno Giant Family Card costs $12. When Ivan bought ten pieces, he was given a discount of $2 each. How much did Ivan pay in all?
Instead of $12 each, an Uno Giant Family Card costs $12 - $2 = $<<12-2=10>>10 each. Ivan paid $10 x 10 = $<<10*10=100>>100 for the ten pieces Uno Giant Family Card. #### 100

It takes 15 mink skins to make a coat. Andy buys 30 minks and each mink has 6 babies, but half the total minks are set free by activists. How many coats can he make?
First find the total number of baby minks: 30 minks * 6 babies/mink = <<30*6=180>>180 minks Add this to the number of adult minks: 180 minks + 30 minks = <<180+30=210>>210 minks Then divide this number in half to find how many aren't set free: 210 minks / 2 = <<210/2=105>>105 minks Then divide the remaining number of minks by the number of minks per coat to find the number of coats: 105 minks / 15 minks/coat = <<105/15=7>>7 coats #### 7
Malcolm works in a company where they normally pack 40 apples in a box, producing 50 full boxes per day. Operations went as normal in one week. But in the next week, they packed 500 fewer apples per day. What's the total number of apples packed in the two weeks?
In the first week, each day they pack 40*50 = <<40*50=2000>>2000 apples The total number of apples packed in the boxes is 2000*7 = <<2000*7=14000>>14000 apples in the first week. When 500 fewer apples were packed each day in the next week, the total became 2000-500 = <<2000-500=1500>>1500 apples per day. The total number of apples packed in the boxes that week is 1500*7 = <<1500*7=10500>>10500 apples. The total is 14000+10500 = <<14000+10500=24500>>24500 apples for the two weeks #### 24500

On a plane, points are colored in the following way: 1. Choose any positive integer \( m \), and let \( K_{1}, K_{2}, \cdots, K_{m} \) be circles with different non-zero radii such that \( K_{i} \subset K_{j} \) or \( K_{j} \subset K_{i} \) for \( i \neq j \). 2. Points chosen inside the circles are colored differently from the points outside the circles on the plane. Given that there are 2019 points on the plane such that no three points are collinear, determine the maximum number of different colors possible that satisfy the given conditions.

A lateral face of a regular triangular pyramid $SABC$ is inclined to the base plane $ABC$ at an angle $\alpha = \operatorname{arctg} \frac{3}{4}$. Points $M, N, K$ are midpoints of the sides of the base $ABC$. The triangle $MNK$ serves as the lower base of a rectangular prism. The edges of the upper base of the prism intersect the lateral edges of the pyramid $SABC$ at points $F, P,$ and $R$ respectively. The total surface area of the polyhedron with vertices at points $M, N, K, F, P, R$ is $53 \sqrt{3}$. Find the side length of the triangle $ABC$.

Mattis is hosting a badminton tournament for $40$ players on $20$ courts numbered from $1$ to $20$. The players are distributed with $2$ players on each court. In each round a winner is determined on each court. Afterwards, the player who lost on court $1$, and the player who won on court $20$ stay in place. For the remaining $38$ players, the winner on court $i$ moves to court $i + 1$ and the loser moves to court $i - 1$. The tournament continues until every player has played every other player at least once. What is the minimal number of rounds the tournament can last?
