AIME 2023b Problem 6

  • Paper
  • Answer

Consider the L-shaped region formed by three unit squares joined at their sides, as shown below. Two points AA and BB are chosen independently and uniformly at random from inside the region. The probability that the midpoint of AB‾\overline{AB} also lies inside this L-shaped region can be expressed as mn,\frac{m}{n}, where mm and nn are relatively prime positive integers. Find m+n.m+n.
