Problem Statement

On a circle we consider a set MM consisting of nn (n3n \ge 3) points, of which only one is colored red. Determine of which polygons inscribed in a circle having the vertices in the set MM are more: those that contain the red dot or those that do not contain those points? How many more are there than others?
