  4. Months with five Fridays ●●○○○ 20 ptsOne year, January 1 and April 1 were both on a Thursday. How many months in that year have five Fridays? Justify your answer.
  5. Least difference between geometric and arithmetic terms ●●○○○ 20 ptsSequence AA is a geometric sequence and sequence BB is an arithmetic sequence. Each sequence stops as soon as one of its terms is greater than 300300. Sequence AA: 2,4,8,16,32,…2, 4, 8, 16, 32, \ldots. Sequence BB: 20,40,60,80,100,…20, 40, 60, 80, 100, \ldots. Find the least positive difference between a number selected from sequence AA and a number selected from sequence BB.
  6. Equal votes in a village election ●●○○○ 20 ptsA small village has nn people. During their yearly elections, every group of three people comes up to a stage and, as a group, casts a single vote for someone in the village to be the new leader. After every possible group of three people has voted, it turns out that every person in the village received exactly the same number of votes. If 10≤n≤10010 \leq n \leq 100, how many possible values of nn are there?
  7. Common remainder of two numbers ●●○○○ 20 ptsWhen dividing the numbers 312837312837 and 310650310650 by a certain three-digit natural number, the remainders were the same. Find this remainder.
  8. Smallest survey size with given percentages ●●○○○ 20 ptsA total of nn people were asked a question in a survey. Exactly 76%76\% of the nn people responded "yes" and exactly 24%24\% of the nn people responded "no". What is the smallest possible value of nn?
  9. High-sulfur oil samples in a container ●●○○○ 20 ptsA container designed for 300 oil samples is almost completely full. Each sample is either low-sulfur or high-sulfur, and either light or heavy. The relative frequency of heavy oil samples is 18\frac{1}{8}, and the relative frequency of light low-sulfur oil samples is 2237\frac{22}{37}. Assume the total number of samples is the largest number not exceeding 300 that is consistent with these frequencies. Assume there are no low-sulfur samples among the heavy samples. How many high-sulfur oil samples are in the container?
  10. Maximum size of a special set ●●●○○ 50 ptsA set S\mathcal{S} of distinct positive integers has the following property: for every integer xx in S\mathcal{S}, the arithmetic mean of the set of values obtained by deleting xx from S\mathcal{S} is an integer. Given that 11 belongs to S\mathcal{S} and that 20022002 is the largest element of S\mathcal{S}, what is the greatest number of elements that S\mathcal{S} can have?
