Prove that for every natural number \(n > 1\) the equality: \[\lfloor n^{1 / 2}\rfloor + \lfloor n^{1/ 3}\rfloor + \dots + \lfloor n^{1 / n}\rfloor = \lfloor \log_{2}n\rfloor + \lfloor \log_{3}n\rfloor + \dots + \lfloor \log_{n}n\rfloor\] is satisfied.

a) Give an example of a positive number \(a\) such that \(\{a\} + \{1 / a\} = 1\).

b) Can such an \(a\) be a rational number?

Find the number of solutions in natural numbers of the equation \(\lfloor x / 10\rfloor = \lfloor x / 11\rfloor + 1\).

Some real numbers \(a_1, a_2, a_3,\dots ,a _{2022}\) are written in a row. Prove that it is possible to pick one or several adjacent numbers, so that their sum is less than 0.001 away from a whole number.

Are there such irrational numbers \(a\) and \(b\) so that \(a > 1\), \(b > 1\), and \(\lfloor a^m\rfloor\) is different from \(\lfloor b^n\rfloor\) for any natural numbers \(m\) and \(n\)?
