CMO 1981 Problem 1

  • Paper

For any real number tt , denote by [t][t] the greatest integer which is less than or equal to tt . For example: [8]=8[8] = 8 , [π]=3[\pi] = 3 , and [−5/2]=−3[-5/2] = -3 . Show that the equation [x]+[2x]+[4x]+[8x]+[16x]+[32x]=12345[x] + [2x] + [4x] + [8x] + [16x] + [32x] = 12345 has no real solution.
