CMO 2021 Problem 5

  • Paper
  • Answer

Nina and Tadashi play the following game. Initially, a triple (a,b,c)(a, b, c) of nonnegative integers with a+b+c=a+b+c= 2021 is written on a blackboard. Nina and Tadashi then take moves in turn, with Nina first. A player making a move chooses a positive integer kk and one of the three entries on the board; then the player increases the chosen entry by kk and decreases the other two entries by kk. A player loses if, on their turn, some entry on the board becomes negative.

Find the number of initial triples (a,b,c)(a, b, c) for which Tadashi has a winning strategy.
