a) $31$
b) $32$ equilateral triangles with side length $1?$ - Let $n$ numbers all equal to $1$ be written on a blackboard. A move consists of replacing two numbers on the board with two copies of their sum. It happens that after $h$ moves all $n$ numbers on the blackboard are equal to $m.$ Prove that $h \leq \frac{1}{2}n \log_2 m.$
- A cube consists of $4^3$ unit cubes each containing an integer. At each move, you choose a unit cube and increase by $1$ all the integers in the neighbouring cubes having a face in common with the chosen cube. Is it possible to reach a position where all the $4^3$ integers are divisible by $3,$ no matter what the starting position is?
- The Baltic Sea has $2016$ harbours. There are two-way ferry connections between some of them. It is impossible to make a sequence of direct voyages $C_1 - C_2 - ... - C_{1062}$ where all the harbours $C_1, . . . , C_{1062}$ are distinct. Prove that there exist two disjoint sets $A$ and $B$ of $477$ harbours each, such that there is no harbour in $A$ with a direct ferry connection to a harbour in $B.$
- In triangle $ABC,$ the points $D$ and $E$ are the intersections of the angular bisectors from $C$ and $B$ with the sides $AB$ and $AC,$ respectively. Points $F$ and $G$ on the extensions of $AB$ and $AC$ beyond $B$ and $C,$ respectively, satisfy $BF = CG = BC.$ Prove that $F G \parallel DE.$

- Consider triangles in the plane where each vertex has integer coordinates. Such a triangle can be legally transformed by moving one vertex parallel to the opposite side to a different point with integer coordinates. Show that if two triangles have the same area, then there exists a series of legal transformations that transforms one to the other.
