Problem 1

A frog jumps around on the integers on the number line. If it lands on an even number nn , it jumps to the number n2\frac{n}{2} . If it lands on an odd number nn , it jumps to the number n+5n + 5 . At some point it lands on the number 2525 . At which numbers may it have been three jumps ago?

Problem 2

The numbers 1,2,3,...,161, 2, 3, . . . , 16 must be placed in the 1616 squares in such a way that the sum of the numbers in each of the four rows and columns is the same. What is the smallest possible sum of the four numbers in the corner squares? Image

Problem 5

Georg has a circular game board with 100 squares labelled 1,2,...,1001, 2, . . . , 100 . Georg chooses three numbers a,b,ca, b, c among the numbers 1,2,...,991, 2, . . . , 99 . The numbers need not be distinct. Initially there is a piece on the square labelled 100100 . First, Georg moves the piece aa squares forward 3333 times and puts a caramel on each of the squares the piece lands on. Then he moves the piece bb squares forward 3333 times and puts a caramel on each of the squares the piece lands on. Finally, he moves the piece cc squares forward 3333 times and puts a caramel on each of the squares the piece lands on. Thus he puts a total of 9999 caramels on the board. Georg wins all the caramels on square number 11 . How many caramels can Georg win, at most? Image
