Becky tries an experiment. She writes some numbers on the blackboard and then applies the following rule: she picks any number on the board that is greater than 1, erases it and replaces it with the list of its proper divisors. For example, if the number 6 was on the board, she would apply the rule by erasing the 6 and replacing it with the numbers 1, 2 and 3. The experiment ends when there are only 1s left on the board. If Becky begins with just the number 72 on the board, how many 1s will be on the board when she is finished?

    So we have 1,2,3,4,6,8,9,12,18,24,36
    Then we'll get 1,{1},{1},{1,2},{1,2,3},{1,2,4},{1,3},{1,2,3,4,6},{1,2,3,6,9},{1,2,3,4,6,8,12},{1,2,3,4,6,9,12,18}
    Now we'll get 1,{1},{1},{1,[1]},{1,[1],[1]},{1,[1],[1,2]},{1,[1]},{1,[1],[1],[1,2],[1,2,3]},{1,[1],[1],[1,2,3],[1,3]},{1,[1],[1],[1,2],[1,2,3],[1,2,4],[1,2,3,4,6]},{1,[1],[1],[1,2],[1,2,3],[1,3],[1,2,3,4,6],[1,2,3,6,9]}
    And then, 1,{1},{1},{1,[1]},{1,[1],[1]},{1,[1],[1,(1)]},{1,[1]},{1,[1],[1],[1,(1)],[1,(1),(1)]},{1,[1],[1],[1,(1),(1)],[1,(1)]},{1,[1],[1],[1,(1)],[1,(1),(1)],[1,(1),(1,2)],[1,(1),(1),(1,2),(1,2,3)]},{1,[1],[1],[1,(1)],[1,(1),(1)],[1,(1)],[1,(1),(1),(1,2),(1,2,3)],[1,(1),(1),(1,2,3),(1,3)]}
    Finally, 1,{1},{1},{1,[1]},{1,[1],[1]},{1,[1],[1,(1)]},{1,[1]},{1,[1],[1],[1,(1)],[1,(1),(1)]},{1,[1],[1],[1,(1),(1)],[1,(1)]},{1,[1],[1],[1,(1)],[1,(1),(1)],[1,(1),(1,|1|)],[1,(1),(1),(1,|1|),(1,|1|,|1|)]},{1,[1],[1],[1,(1)],[1,(1),(1)],[1,(1)],[1,(1),(1),(1,|1|),(1,|1|,|1|)],[1,(1),(1),(1,|1|,|1|),(1,|1|)]}

    72=23.32

      20 21 22 23
    30 1(a) 2(b) 4(c) 8(d)
    31 3(b) 6(e) 12(f) 24(g)
    32 9(c) 18(f) 36(h) 72(i)

    To do this, we will calculate the area of the rectangle that has the top left of (a) as the corner, and the bottom right of the cell we are analyzing as the other corner, minus 1
    1(a): number 1, so we don't discount anything
    2(b): each overlapping 1(a) => 1(one)
    2(c): each overlapping 1(a), 1(b) => 1+1=2(ones)
    1(d): overlapping 1(a),1(b),1(c) => 1+1+2=4(ones)
    1(e): overlapping 1(a),2(b) => 1+2.1=3(ones)
    2(f): each overlapping 1(a),2(b),1(c),1(e) => 1+2.1+2+3=8(ones)
    1(g): overlapping 1(a),2(b),1(c),1(d),1(e),1(f) => 1+2.1+2+4+3+8=20(ones)
    1(h): overlapping 1(a),2(b),2(c),1(e),2(f)=> 1+2.1+2.2+3+2.8=26(ones)
    1(i): ignore this guy
    So in total, we have 1+2.1+2.2+4+3+2.8+20+26=76(ones)
    This took 3 hours for me to figure out... Tell Becky that I hate her sadistic game

A particle moves inside the square with vertices A = (0 ;0) , B = (1 ;0) , C = (1 ;1) , and D = (0 ;1) . It begins at the point (2/3 ;0) , travels to some point on the edge BC, then travels to some point on the edge CD, then travels to some point on the edge DA, and then travels to the point (1/6 ;0). Whate is the minimum distance the particle could have travelled on such a journey?

    A B C D E C' D' E' 1/6 1/3 C'' B'' D'' 1/6

    We have AB + BC + CD + DE = AB + BC' + C'D' + D'E' \(\ge AE'\)

    => min of (AB + BC + CD + DE) = AE' \(=\sqrt{\left(2\right)^2+\left(\dfrac{1}{3}+1+\dfrac{1}{6}\right)^2}=\dfrac{5}{2}\)

    When \(B\equiv B'',C'\equiv C'',D'\equiv D''\)

    We can infer positions of C, D.

    The answer is \(\dfrac{5}{2}\),but I don't know the solution.

    Is this problem from USC Mathematics Contest 3/12/1994 ?

A flea can jump 350 times the length of its own body. If a human were able to jump 350 times his or her height, how many feet would an average American, whose height is 5 feet 6 inches, be able to jump?

  • ...
    Lê Quốc Trần Anh Coordinator 11/08/2017 at 08:57

    Convert: 1 foot = 12 inches, 5 feet 6 inches = 66 inches.

    If a human were able to jump, an American will be able to jump: \(66.350=23100\left(inches\right)=1925\left(feet\right)\)

Prove that abcabc divide by 7,11,13

  • ...
    Help you solve math 20/08/2017 at 16:51

    Ta has: abcabc = abc000 + abc 

             

                          = Abc x 1000 + abc 

                          = Abc. (1000 +1)

                          = Abc. 1001

                          = Abc. 7. 11. 13

    The abcabc of the abc with 7; 11; 13 => abcabc divide by 7; 11 and 13

    abcabc must to divide : 7 x 11 x 13 = 1001

    => abcabc is : 100100

    It's correct

A bowl contains 50 grapes of different colors. If 20% of the grapes in the bowl are red, how many grapes are not red?

  • ...
    Dao Trong Luan Coordinator 19/10/2017 at 18:30

    The number of % of the grapes are not rad are:

    100% - 20% = 80%

    So the number of the grapes are not red are:

    50.80% = 40 [grapes]

    So there are 40 grapes are not red

    Done ^.^

  • ...
    Phan Thanh Tinh Coordinator 18/11/2017 at 00:27

    We have :

    \(\left[{}\begin{matrix}x-2017=0\\x^2-2018^2=0\\x^3-2019^3=0\\x^4-2020^4=0\end{matrix}\right.\Rightarrow\left[{}\begin{matrix}x=2017\\x=\pm2018\\x=2019\\x=\pm2020\end{matrix}\right.\)

    So, the equation has 6 roots above
