The diagram is a pyramid of 21 squares. Fill each square with a natural number so that every entry above the bottom row is the sum of the two entries immediately below it. The filled diagram gives an example. Mr Thuận wants exactly seven even entries. Show one such filling.
In triangle ABC, D and E lie on BC with BD = DE = EC, and F lies on AC with AF = FC. In the diagram G is the intersection of AD and BF, and J is the intersection of AE and BF. Given that the area of ABC is 480 cm², find the areas of (a) triangle BGD; (b) triangle AGJ.
N students stand in a circle numbered 1,2,…,N clockwise. Student 1 stays, student 2 leaves, the next stays, the next leaves, and so on, continuing around the shrinking circle until only one remains. Which numbered student survives when (a) N=32; (b) N=2017?
