It is best to split 11 hours and 5 minutes into 2 parts, one of 11 hours and another of 5 minutes. We know that there is 
minutes in a hour. Therefore, there are 
minutes in 11 hours. Adding the second part(the 5 minutes) we get 
.
Use the triangle area formula for triangles: 
where is the area, is the base, and 
is the height. This equation gives us 
.
We can call the remaining score 
. We also know that the average, 70, is equal to 
. We can use basic algebra to solve for :
giving us the answer of 
.
When Cheenu was a boy, he could run miles in hours and minutes 
minutes 
minutes, thus running 
minutes per mile. When he is an old man, he can walk miles in hours 
minutes 
minutes, thus walking 
minutes per mile. Therefore it takes him 
minutes longer to walk a mile now compared to when he was a boy.
From the second bullet point, we know that the second digit must be . Because there is a remainder of when it is divided by , the multiple of must end in a . We now look for this one:
The number 
satisfies both conditions. We subtract the biggest multiple of less than 
to get the remainder. Thus, 
.
We first notice that the median name will be the 
name. The name is 
.
We know that our answer must have an odd exponent in order for it to not be a square. Because is a perfect square, 
is also a perfect square, so our answer must be 
.
We can group each subtracting pair together:
After subtracting, we have:
There are 
even numbers, therefore there are 
even pairs. Therefore the sum is 
The prime factorization is 
. Since the problem is only asking us for the distinct prime factors, we have 
. Their desired sum is then 
.
Let us plug in 
into 
. Thus it would be 
. Now we have 
. Plugging 
into , we have 
. Solving for we have
We can write the two digit number in the form of 
; reverse of is 
. The sum of those numbers is:
We can use brute force to find order pairs 
such that 
. Since and are both digits, both and have to be integers less than . Thus our ordered pairs are 
or 
ordered pairs.
Set the number of children to a number that is divisible by two, four, and three. In this question, the number of children in the school is not a specific number because there are no actual numbers in the question, only ratios.This way, we can calculate the answer without dealing with decimals. 
is a number that works. There will be girls and boys. So, there will be
= 
girls on the trip and 
= 
boys on the trip. The total number of children on the trip is 
, so the fraction of girls on the trip is 
or 
The product can only be if one of the numbers is 0. Once we chose , there are ways we can chose the second number, or 
. There are 
ways we can chose numbers randomly, and that is . So, 
so the answer is 
.
Since he uses a gallon of gas every miles, he had used 
gallons after miles. Therefore, after the first leg of his trip he had 
gallons of gas left. Then, he bought gallons of gas, which brought him up to gallons of gas in his gas tank. When he arrived, he had 
gallons of gas. So he used gallons of gas on the second leg of his trip. Therefore, the second part of his trip covered 
miles. Adding this to the miles, we see that he drove 
miles.
First, we use difference of squares on 
to get 
. Using difference of squares again and simplifying, we get 
. Realizing that we don't need the right-hand side because it doesn't contain any factor of 2, we see that the greatest power of that is a divisor is 
.
Each lap Bonnie runs, Annie runs another quarter lap, so Bonnie will run four laps before she is overtaken. This means that Annie and Bonnie are equal so that Annie needs to run another lap to overtake Bonnie. That means Annie will have run 
laps.
For the first three digits, there are 
combinations since 
is not allowed. For the final digit, any of the numbers are allowed. 
From any 
th race, only 
will continue on. Since we wish to find the total number of races, a column representing the races over time is ideal. Starting with the first race: 
Adding all of the numbers in the second column yields 
Let 
be the 13th consecutive even integer that's being added up. By doing this, we can see that the sum of all 25 even numbers will simplify to 
since 
. Now, 
Remembering that this is the 13th integer, we wish to find the 25th, which is 
.
We wish to find possible values of ,, and . By finding the greatest common factor of and , algebraically, it's some multiple of and from looking at the numbers, we are sure that it is 3, thus is 3. Moving on to and , in order to minimize them, we wish to find the least such that the least common multiple of and is , 
. Similarly with and , we obtain . The least common multiple of and is 
We put five chips randomly in order, and then pick the chips from the left to the right. To find the number of ways to rearrange the three red chips and two green chips, we solve for 
. However, we notice that whenever the last chip we draw is red, we pick both green chips before we pick the last (red) chip. Similarly, when the last chip is green, we pick all three red chips before the last (green) chip. This means that the last chip must be green in all the situations that work. This means we are left with finding the number of ways to rearrange three red chips and one green chip, which is 
. Because a green chip will be last out of the situations, our answer is 
.
The area of trapezoid 
is 
. Next, we find the height of each triangle to calculate their area. The triangles are similar, and are in a 
ratio by AA similarity (alternate interior and vertical angles) so the height of the larger one is 
while the height of the smaller one is 
Thus, their areas are 
and 
. Subtracting these areas from the trapezoid, we get 
. Therefore, the answer to this problem is 
Drawing the diagram[SOMEONE DRAW IT PLEASE], we see that 
is equilateral as each side is the radius of one of the two circles. Therefore, 
. Therefore, since it is an inscribed angle, 
. So, in 
, 
, and
. Our answer is 
.
We see that since is divisible by , 
must equal either or , but it cannot equal , so 
. We notice that since must be even, 
must be either or . However, when 
, we see that 
, which cannot happen because and are already used up; so
. This gives 
, meaning 
. Now, we see that 
could be either or , but is not divisible by , but 
is. This means that and 
.
Draw the altitude from the top of the triangle to its base, dividing the isosceles triangle into two right triangles with height and base 
. The Pythagorean triple --
tells us that these triangles have hypotenuses of .Now draw an altitude of one of the smaller right triangles, starting from the foot of the first altitude we drew (which is also the center of the circle that contains the semicircle) and going to the hypotenuse of the right triangle. This segment is both an altitude of the right triangle as well as the radius of the semicircle (this is because tangent lines to circles, such as the hypotenuse touching the semicircle, are always perpendicular to the radii of the circles drawn to the point of tangency). Let this segment's length be .The area of the entire isosceles triangle is 
, so the area of each of the two congruent right triangles it gets split into is 
. We can also find the area of one of the two congruent right triangles by using its hypotenuse as its base and the radius of the semicircle, the altitude we drew, as its height. Then the area of the triangle is 
. Thus we can write the equation 
, so 
, so 
.
