Problem 1

  • Paper

Find all pairs (a,b)(a, b) of positive integers such that a3a^{3} is a multiple of b2b^{2} and b−1b-1 is a multiple of a−1a-1. Note: An integer nn is said to be a multiple of an integer mm if there is an integer kk such that n=kmn=k m.

Problem 2

  • Paper

Let ABCA B C be a right triangle with ∠B=90∘\angle B=90^{\circ}. Point DD lies on the line CBC B such that BB is between DD and CC. Let EE be the midpoint of ADA D and let FF be the second intersection point of the circumcircle of △ACD\triangle A C D and the circumcircle of △BDE\triangle B D E. Prove that as DD varies, the line EFE F passes through a fixed point.

  • Answer

Find all positive integers k<202k<202 for which there exists a positive integer nn such that

{n202}+{2n202}+⋯+{kn202}=k2\left\{\frac{n}{202}\right\}+\left\{\frac{2 n}{202}\right\}+\cdots+\left\{\frac{k n}{202}\right\}=\frac{k}{2}

where {x}\{x\} denote the fractional part of xx. Note: {x}\{x\} denotes the real number kk with 0≤k<10 \leq k<1 such that x−kx-k is an integer.

Problem 4

  • Paper
  • Answer

Let nn and kk be positive integers. Cathy is playing the following game. There are nn marbles and kk boxes, with the marbles labelled 1 to nn. Initially, all marbles are placed inside one box. Each turn, Cathy chooses a box and then moves the marbles with the smallest label, say ii, to either any empty box or the box containing marble i+1i+1. Cathy wins if at any point there is a box containing only marble nn. Determine all pairs of integers (n,k)(n, k) such that Cathy can win this game.
