It is known that \[35! = 10333147966386144929 * 66651337523200000000.\] Find the number replaced by an asterisk.
\(2n\) diplomats sit around a round table. After a break the same \(2n\) diplomats sit around the same table, but this time in a different order.
Prove that there will always be two diplomats with the same number of people sitting between them, both before and after the break.
Prove that if \(a, b, c\) are odd numbers, then at least one of the numbers \(ab-1\), \(bc-1\), \(ca-1\) is divisible by 4.
10 natural numbers are written on a blackboard. Prove that it is always possible to choose some of these numbers and write “\(+\)” or “\(-\)” between them so that the resulting algebraic sum is divisible by 1001.
Upon the installation of a keypad lock, each of the 26 letters located on the lock’s keypad is assigned an arbitrary natural number known only to the owner of the lock. Different letters do not necessarily have different numbers assigned to them. After a combination of different letters, where each letter is typed once at most, is entered into the lock a summation is carried out of the corresponding numbers to the letters typed in. The lock opens only if the result of the summation is divisible by 26. Prove that for any set of numbers assigned to the 26 letters, there exists a combination that will open the lock.
Reception pupil Peter knows only the number 1. Prove that he can write a number divisible by 2001.
Around a table sit boys and girls. Prove that the number of pairs of neighbours of different sexes is even.
Could the difference of two integers multiplied by their product be equal to the number 1999?
a) There are 21 coins on a table with the tails side facing upwards. In one operation, you are allowed to turn over any 20 coins. Is it possible to achieve the arrangement were all coins are facing with the heads side upwards in a few operations?
b) The same question, if there are 20 coins, but you are allowed to turn over 19.
Prove the divisibility rule for \(25\): a number is divisible by \(25\) if and only if the number made by the last two digits of the original number is divisible by \(25\);
Can you come up with a divisibility rule for \(125\)?
