A. Online problems
16 typed items in 45 minutes. Probability, expected value, combinatorics, logic puzzles and a few market and estimation problems. About 170 seconds an item, so these want working, not guessing.
In this Outcry section: 16 items in 45 minutes, averaging 169 seconds per item. Wrong answers receive no marks and carry no deduction. Unanswered items score zero. Correct-answer weights are shown on the questions. These are the mock’s rules.
Example 1
400 lamps start off. Person k flips every kth lamp, for k from 1 to 400. How many lamps end on?
Answer 20
A lamp ends on when it has an odd number of divisors, which happens only for perfect squares. Up to 400 there are 20 of them.
Example 2
A fair 10-sided die pays its face value, plus a bonus of 6 if it lands on 10. What is the expected payout?
Answer 6.1
The face averages 5.5 and the bonus adds 6/10 = 0.6, giving 6.1.
Example 3
Three fair dice are rolled. How many of the 216 ordered outcomes total 7?
Answer 15
Counting ordered triples summing to 7 gives 15, so the chance is 15/216 = 6.9%.
