However, the units digit of a palindromic number cannot be $$0$$, so it may be deduced that any palindromic number which is a multiple of $$45$$ both starts and ends in the digit $$5$$. In order to make the desired number as large as possible, its second digit should be $$9$$ and for it to be as small as possible its second digit should be $$0$$. So, if possible, the numbers required are of the form \\textquotesingle$$59x95$$\\textquotesingle{} and \\textquotesingle$$50y05$$\\textquotesingle{} .

[ "This is equivalent to asking for the probability that at least one of the numbers is a multiple of 5 , since if one of the numbers is a multiple of 5 , then the product with it and another integer is also a multiple of 5 , and if a number is a multiple of 5 , then since 5 is prime, one of the factors must also have a factor of 5 , and 5 is the only multiple of 5 on a die, so one of the numbers rolled must be a 5 . To find the probability of rolling at least one 5 , we can find the probability of not rolling a 5 and subtract that from 1, since you either roll a 5 or not roll a 5 . The probability of not rolling a 5 on either dice is $\\left(\\frac{5}{6}\\right)\\left(\\frac{5}{6}\\right)=\\frac{25}{36}$.

If there is a tie for the highest roll, those involved in the tie will roll again and this process will continue until one player wins. Hugo is one of the players in this game. What is the probability that Hugo\textquotesingle s first roll was a 5 , given that he won the game?

The balance has two situations: balanced or not. Analyze the situation of the balance: if balanced, the fake coin is among the remaining $$4$$ coins. In the second weighing with the balance, randomly take $$3$$ coins from coin $$1$$ to coin $$8$$ and put them on the left end of the balance and randomly take $$3$$ coins from coin $$9$$ to coin $$12$$ and put them on the right end of the balance (such as $$9$$, $$10$$, $$11$$). The balance also has two situations: balanced or not. If balanced, coin $$12$$ is the coin of different weight. In the third weighing with the balance, comparing No. $$12$$ coin with any other coin, whether the coin is lighter or heavier can be known. If not, it can be known that the coin of different weight is among the three coins $$9$$, $$10$$, and $$11$$, and that whether it is lighter or heavier than other coins can be known. In the third weighing with the balance, randomly take two of the coins (such as $$9$$ and $$10$$) and put them on the both ends of the balance. If balanced, the remaining coin (coin $$11$$) is the one we are looking for; if not, based on the previous judgement that whether the coin is lighter or heavier, it can be determined that which one of the coins on the balance is what we are looking for. Analyze the first imbalanced situation as follows: There are two situations: the right end weighs more or the left end weighs more. Assume the left end weighs more (which is the same for the situation that the right end weighs more.) In the second weighing with the balance, take off $$3$$ coins randomly from the left end (such as $$1$$, $$2$$, and $$3$$) and move $$3$$ coins from the right end to the left end (such as $$5$$, $$6$$, and $$7$$), then take $$3$$ coins randomly from the $$4$$ coins left in the first weighing (such as $$9$$, $$10$$, and $$11$$) to the right end, and there sees $$3$$ situations for the balance: ① the left end weighs more, ② the two ends strike a balance, ③ the right end weighs more. Analyze the situations one by one as follows: ① If the left end weighs more, the coin we are looking for must be coin $$4$$ or coin $$8$$. In the third time weighing with the balance, take one of the coins (such as coin $$4$$) and put it on the left end of the balance. Randomly take one of the remaining $$10$$ coins and put it on the right end. There also sees $$3$$ situations. $$a$$: If balanced, coin $$8$$ is the one we are looking for. Based on the result of using the balance for the second time, it is known that the coin weighs less than other coins. $$b$$: If the left end weighs more, coin $$4$$ is the one we are looking for and it weighs more than other coins. $$c$$: If the right end weighs more, coin $$4$$ is the one we are looking for and it weighs less than other coins. ② If the two ends strike a balance, the coin we are looking for is among the three coins ($$1$$, $$2$$, and $$3$$) taken from the left end. Since the left end weighs more in the first weighing, it is known that the coin weighs more than other coins. The following analysis is the same as previous one and will not be repeated. ③ If the right end weighs more, the coin we are looking for is among the three coins ($$5$$, $$6$$, and $$7$$) moved from the right end to the left end. Based on the results of weighing in the first two times (the left end weighs more in the first weighing and the right end weighs more in the second weighing), it is known that the coin weighs less than other coins.

Because order is important in this problem, there are $1+4+1+3+6=15$ ways to pick out the chip. But we noticed that if you pick out the three red chips before you pick out the green chip, the game ends. So we need to subtract cases like that to get the total number of ways a game could end, which $15-5=10$. Out of the $10$ ways to end the game, $4$ of them ends with a green chip.

Each of the 5 sides and the 5 diagonals of a regular pentagon are randomly and independently colored red or blue with equal probability. What is the probability that there will be a triangle whose vertices are among the vertices of the pentagon such that all of its sides have the same color?
[ [ { "aoVal": "A", "content": "$\\frac{2}{3}$ " } ], [ { "aoVal": "B", "content": "$\\frac{105}{128}$ " } ], [ { "aoVal": "C", "content": "$\\frac{125}{128}$ " } ], [ { "aoVal": "D", "content": "$\\frac{253}{256}$ " } ], [ { "aoVal": "E", "content": "$$1$$ " } ] ]
[ "Overseas Competition->Knowledge Point->Counting Modules->Statistics and Probability" ]
[ "Instead of finding the probability of a same-colored triangle appearing, let us find the probability that one does not appear. After drawing the regular pentagon out, note the topmost vertex; it has $4$ sides/diagonals emanating outward from it. We do casework on the color distribution of these sides/diagonals. Case 1: all $4$ are colored one color. In that case, all of the remaining sides must be of the other color to not have a triangle where all three sides are of the same color. We can correspondingly fill out each color based on this constraint, but in this case you will always end up with a triangle where all three sides have the same color by inspection. Case $2$: $3$ are one color and one is the other. Following the steps from the previous case, you can try filling out the colors, but will always arrive at a contradiction so this case does not work either. Case $3$: $2$ are one color and $2$ are of the other color. Using the same logic as previously, we can color the pentagon $2$ different ways by inspection to satisfy the requirements. There are $\\left(\\begin{array}{l}4 \\textbackslash\\textbackslash{} 2\\end{array}\\right)$ ways to color the original sides/diagonals and 2 ways after that to color the remaining ones for a total of $6 \\cdot 2=12$ ways to color the pentagon so that no such triangle has the same color for all of its sides. These are all the cases, and there are a total of $2^{10}$ ways to color the pentagon. Therefore the answer is $1-\\frac{12}{1024}=1-\\frac{3}{256}=\\frac{253}{256}=D$. " ]
