Let a1,a2,... be an infinite sequence of positive integers such that for any k,ℓ∈Z+ , ak+ℓ is divisible by gcd(ak,aℓ) . Prove that for any integers 1⩽k⩽n , anan−1…an−k+1 is divisible by akak−1…a1 .
Let n be a positive integer. Denote by a(n) the ways of expression n=x1+x2+… where x1⩽x2⩽… are positive integers and xi+1 is a power of 2 for each i . Denote by b(n) the ways of expression n=y1+y2+… where yi is a positive integer and 2yi⩽yi+1 for each i .
Prove that a(n)=b(n) .
Given 2n points and 3n lines on the plane. Prove that there is a point P on the plane such that the sum of the distances of P to the 3n lines is less than the sum of the distances of P to the 2n points.
