What is the minimum number of points necessary to mark inside a convex \(n\)-sided polygon, so that at least one marked point always lies inside any triangle whose vertices are shared with those of the polygon?

A square of side 15 contains 20 non-overlapping unit squares. Prove that it is possible to place a circle of radius 1 inside the large square, so that it does not overlap with any of the unit squares.

There are \(2k+1\) cards numbered with the numbers \(1\) to \(2k+1\). What is the largest number of cards that can be chosen so that no number on a chosen card is equal to the sum of two numbers from two other chosen cards?

We are given 51 two-digit numbers – we will count one-digit numbers as two-digit numbers with a leading 0. Prove that it is possible to choose 6 of these so that no two of them have the same digit in the same column.

You are given 1002 different integers that are no greater than 2000. Prove that it is always possible to choose three of the given numbers so that the sum of two of them is equal to the third.

Will this still always be possible if we are given 1001 integers rather than 1002?

Prove that amongst any 11 different decimal fractions of infinite length, there will be two whose digits in the same column – 10ths, 100s, 1000s, etc – coincide (are the same) an infinite number of times.

Prove that in a three-digit number, that is divisible by 37, you can always rearrange the numbers so that the new number will also be divisible by 37.
