Let f:R+R+f:\mathbb{R}^+\to \mathbb{R}^+ be a function such that for all x,yR+,f(x)f(y)=f(xy)+f(xy)x,y \in \mathbb{R}+,\, f(x)f(y)=f(xy)+f\left(\frac{x}{y}\right), where R+\mathbb{R}^+ represents the positive real numbers. Given that f(2)=3f(2)=3, compute the last two digits of f(222020)f\left(2^{2^{2020}}\right).

Let A1=(0,0)A_1 = (0, 0), B1=(1,0)B_1 = (1, 0), C1=(1,1)C_1 = (1, 1), D1=(0,1)D_1 = (0, 1). For all i>1i > 1, we recursively define Ai=12020(Ai1+2019Bi1),Bi=12020(Bi1+2019Ci1)A_i =\frac{1}{2020} (A_{i-1} + 2019B_{i-1}),B_i =\frac{1}{2020} (B_{i-1} + 2019C_{i-1}) Ci=12020(Ci1+2019Di1),Di=12020(Di1+2019Ai1)C_i =\frac{1}{2020} (C_{i-1} + 2019D_{i-1}), D_i =\frac{1}{2020} (D_{i-1} + 2019A_{i-1}) where all operations are done coordinate-wise. https://cdn.artofproblemsolving.com/attachments/8/7/9b6161656ed2bc70510286dc8cb75cc5bde6c8.png If [AiBiCiDi][A_iB_iC_iD_i] denotes the area of AiBiCiDiA_iB_iC_iD_i, there are positive integers a,ba, b, and cc such that i=1[AiBiCiDi]=a2bc\sum_{i=1}^{\infty}[A_iB_iC_iD_i] = \frac{a^2b}{c}, where bb is square-free and cc is as small as possible. Compute the value of a+b+ca + b + c

A Yule log is shaped like a right cylinder with height 1010 and diameter 55. Freya cuts it parallel to its bases into 99 right cylindrical slices. After Freya cut it, the combined surface area of the slices of the Yule log increased by aπa\pi. Compute aa.

Let PP be the probability that the product of 20202020 real numbers chosen independently and uniformly at random from the interval [1,2][-1, 2] is positive. The value of 2P12P - 1 can be written in the form (mn)b\left(\frac{m}{n} \right)^b, where mm, nn and bb are positive integers such that mm and nn are relatively prime and bb is as large as possible. Compute m+n+bm + n + b.
