It is known that a camera located at \(O\) cannot see the objects \(A\) and \(B\), where the angle \(AOB\) is greater than \(179^\circ\). 1000 such cameras are placed in a Cartesian plane. All of the cameras simultaneously take a picture. Prove that there will be a picture taken in which no more than 998 cameras are visible.
The sum of 100 natural numbers, each of which is no greater than 100, is equal to 200. Prove that it is possible to pick some of these numbers so that their sum is equal to 100.
A conference was attended by a finite group of scientists, some of whom are friends. It turned out that every two scientists, who have an equal number of friends at the conference, do not have friends in common. Prove that there is a scientist who has exactly one friend among the conference attendees.
Peter bought an automatic machine at the store, which for 5 pence multiplies any number entered into it by 3, and for 2 pence adds 4 to any number. Peter wants, starting with a unit that can be entered free of charge to get the number 1981 on the machine number whilst spending the smallest amount of money. How much will the calculations cost him? What happens if he wants to get the number 1982?
A white plane is arbitrarily sprinkled with black ink. Prove that for any positive \(l\) there exists a line segment of length \(l\) with both ends of the same colour.
The tracks in a zoo form an equilateral triangle, in which the middle lines are drawn. A monkey ran away from its cage. Two guards try to catch the monkey. Will they be able to catch the monkey if all three of them can run only along the tracks, and the speed of the monkey and the speed of the guards are equal and they can always see each other?
The judges of an Olympiad decided to denote each participant with a natural number in such a way that it would be possible to unambiguously reconstruct the number of points received by each participant in each task, and that from each two participants the one with the greater number would be the participant which received a higher score. Help the judges solve this problem!
In March 2015 a teacher ran 11 sessions of a maths club. Prove that if no sessions were run on Saturdays or Sundays there must have been three days in a row where a session of the club did not take place. The 1st March 2015 was a Sunday.
Prove that from any 27 different natural numbers less than 100, two numbers that are not coprime can be chosen.
In a dark room on a shelf there are 4 pairs of socks of two different sizes and two different colours that are not arranged in pairs. What is the minimum number of socks necessary to move from the drawer to the suitcase, without leaving the room, so that there are two pairs of socks of different sizes and colours in the suitcase?
