Seven robbers are dividing a bag of coins of various denominations. It turned out that the sum could not be divided equally between them, but if any coin is set aside, the rest could be divided so that every robber would get an equal part. Prove that the bag cannot contain \(100\) coins.
Show that the equation \(x^2 +6x-1 = y^2\) has no solutions in integer \(x\) and \(y\).
Inside a square with side 1 there are several circles, the sum of the radii of which is 0.51. Prove that there is a line that is parallel to one side of the square and that intersects at least 2 circles.
Solve the equation \(\lfloor x^3\rfloor + \lfloor x^2\rfloor + \lfloor x\rfloor = \{x\} - 1\).
Propose a method for measuring the diagonal of a conventional brick, which is easily realied in practice (without the Pythagorean theorem).
A two-player game with matches. There are 37 matches on the table. In each turn, a player is allowed to take no more than 5 matches. The winner of the game is the player who takes the final match. Which player wins, if the right strategy is used?
The seller with weights. With four weights the seller can weigh any integer number of kilograms, from 1 to 40 inclusive. The total mass of the weights is 40 kg. What are the weights available to the seller?
In the US, it is customary to record the date as follows: the number of the month, then the number of the day and then the year. In Europe, the number comes first, then the month and then the year. How many days are there in the year, the date of which can be read definitively, without knowing how it was written?
Two weighings. There are 7 coins which are identical on the surface, including 5 real ones (all of the same weight) and 2 counterfeit coins (both of the same weight, but lighter than the real ones). How can you find the 3 real coins with the help of two weighings on scales without weights?
The cells of a \(15 \times 15\) square table are painted red, blue and green. Prove that there are two lines which at least have the same number of cells of one colour.
