AIME 2020b Problem 12

  • Paper
  • Answer

Let mm and nn be odd integers greater than 1.1. An m×nm\times n rectangle is made up of unit squares where the squares in the top row are numbered left to right with the integers 11 through nn, those in the second row are numbered left to right with the integers n+1n + 1 through 2n2n, and so on. Square 200200 is in the top row, and square 20002000 is in the bottom row. Find the number of ordered pairs (m,n)(m,n) of odd integers greater than 11 with the property that, in the m×nm\times n rectangle, the line through the centers of squares 200200 and 20002000 intersects the interior of square 10991099.
