1. Trung has 2 bells. One bell rings 6 times per hour and the other bell rings 10 times per hour. At the start of the hour both bells ring. After how much time will the bells ring again at the same time? Express your answer in hours. 2. In a soccer tournament there are n teams participating. Each team plays every other team once. The matches can end in a win for one team or in a draw. If the match ends with a win, the winner gets 3 points and the loser gets 0. If the match ends in a draw, each team gets 1 point. At the end of the tournament the total number of points of all the teams is 21. Let p be the number of points of the team in the first place. Find n + p. 1. Trung has 2 bells.

5. Consider a decomposition of a 10 10 chessboard into p disjoint rectangles such that each rectangle contains an integral number of squares and each rectangle contains an equal number of white squares as black squares. Furthermore, each rectangle has different number of squares inside. What is the maximum of p? 6. If two points are selected at random from a straight line segment of length π, what is the probability that the distance between them is at least π 1? 5.

7. Find the length n of the longest possible geometric progression a 1, a 2,..., a n such that the a i are distinct positive integers between 100 and 2014 inclusive. 8. Feng is standing in front of a 100 story building with two identical crystal balls. A crystal ball will break if dropped from a certain floor m of the building or higher, but it will not break if it is dropped from a floor lower than m. What is the minimum number of times Feng needs to drop a ball in order to guarantee he determined m by the time all the crystal balls break? 7.
