p1. What is the maximum amount of a 12%12\% acid solution that can be obtained from 11 liter of 5%5\%, 10%10\% and 15%15\% solutions?
p2. Which number is greater: 199,719,971,9972199,719,971,997^2 or 199,719,971,99619,9719,971,998199,719,971,996 * 19,9719,971,998 ?
p3. Is there a convex 19981998-gon whose angles are all integer degrees?
p4. Is there a ten-digit number divisible by 1111 that uses all the digits from0 0 to 99?
p5. There are 2020 numbers written in a circle, each of which is equal to the sum of its two neighbors. Prove that the sum of all numbers is 00.
p6. Is there a convex polygon that has neither an axis of symmetry nor a center of symmetry, but which transforms into itself when rotated around some point through some angle less than 180180 degrees?
p7. In a convex heptagon, draw as many diagonals as possible so that no three of them are sides of the same triangle, the vertices of which are at the vertices of the original heptagon.
p8. Give an example of a natural number that is divisible by 3030 and has exactly 105105 different natural factors, including 11 and the number itself.
p9. In the writing of the antipodes, numbers are also written with the digits 0,...,90, ..., 9, but each of the numbers has different meanings for them and for us. It turned out that the equalities are also true for the antipodes 58+7+1=485 * 8 + 7 + 1 = 48 226=242 * 2 * 6 = 24 56=305* 6 = 30 a) How will the equality 23=...2^3 = ... in the writing of the antipodes be continued? b) What does the number9 9 mean among the Antipodes?
Clarifications: a) It asks to convert 232^3 in antipodes language, and write with what number it is equal and find a valid equality in both numerical systems. b) What does the digit 99 mean among the antipodes, i.e. with which digit is it equal in our number system?
p10. Is there a convex quadrilateral that can be cut along a straight line into two parts of the same size and shape, but neither the diagonal nor the straight line passing through the midpoints of opposite sides divides it into two equal parts?
PS.1. There was typo in problem 99, it asks for 232^3 and not 2323. PS.2. You should use hide for answers. Collected [url=https://artofproblemsolving.com/community/c2416727_soros_olympiad_in_mathematics]here.

p1. a) There are barrels weighing 1,2,3,4,...,19,201, 2, 3, 4, ..., 19, 20 pounds. Is it possible to distribute them equally (by weight) into three trucks?
b) The same question for barrels weighing 1,2,3,4,...,9,101, 2, 3, 4, ..., 9, 10 pounds.
p2. There are apples and pears in the basket. If you add the same number of apples there as there are now pears (in pieces), then the percentage of apples will be twice as large as what you get if you add as many pears to the basket as there are now apples. What percentage of apples are in the basket now?
p3. What is the smallest number of integers from 10001000 to 15001500 that must be marked so that any number xx from 10001000 to 15001500 differs from one of the marked numbers by no more than 10%10\% of the value of xx?
p4. Draw a perpendicular from a given point to a given straight line, having a compass and a short ruler (the length of the ruler is significantly less than the distance from the point to the straight line; the compass reaches from the point to the straight line “with a margin”).
p5. There is a triangle on the chessboard (left figure). It is allowed to roll it around the sides (in this case, the triangle is symmetrically reflected relative to the side around which it is rolled). Can he, after a few steps, take the position shown in right figure? https://cdn.artofproblemsolving.com/attachments/f/5/eeb96c92f30b837e7ed2cdf7cf77b0fbb8ceda.png
p6. The natural number aa is less than the natural number bb. In this case, the sum of the digits of number aa is 100100 less than the sum of the digits of number bb. Prove that between the numbers a a and bb there is a number whose sum of digits is 4343 more than the sum of the digits of aa.
