  • Paper

The number a=pqa = \tfrac{p}{q}, where pp and qq are relatively prime positive integers, has the property that the sum of all real numbers xx satisfying⌊x⌋⋅{x}=a⋅x2\lfloor x \rfloor \cdot \{x\} = a \cdot x^2is 420420, where ⌊x⌋\lfloor x \rfloor denotes the greatest integer less than or equal to xx and {x}=x−⌊x⌋\{x\} = x - \lfloor x \rfloor denotes the fractional part of xx. What is p+q?p + q?
