[hide]Problem 1
Let be the sum of all positive integers of the form , where and are nonnegative integers that do not exceed . Find the remainder when is divided by .
Problem 2
Draw in the diagonals of a regular octagon. What is the sum of all distinct angle measures, in degrees, formed by the intersections of the diagonals in the interior of the octagon?
Problem 3
Alvin, Simon, and Theodore are running around a -meter circular track starting at different positions. Alvin is running in the opposite direction of Simon and Theodore. He is also the fastest, running twice as fast as Simon and three times as fast as Theodore. If Alvin meets Simon for the first time after running meters, and Simon meets Theodore for the first time after running meters, how far apart along the track (shorter distance) did Alvin and Theodore meet?

Problem 11
Each face of an octahedron is randomly colored blue or red. A caterpillar is on a vertex of the octahedron and wants to get to the opposite vertex by traversing the edges. The probability that it can do so without traveling along an edge that is shared by two faces of the same color is , where and are relatively prime positive integers. Find .
