are equal, respectively, to the last three digits of 
. Find and such that 
has its least value.
Problem 2
We consider a fixed point 
in the interior of a fixed sphere
We construct three segments 
, perpendicular two by two
with the vertexes 
on the sphere We consider the vertex 
which is opposite to in the parallelepiped (with right angles) with 
as edges Find the locus of the point when take all the positions compatible with our problem.
Problem 3
Let 
a sequence with all its terms positive The 
positive integer which doesn't belong to the sequence is 
Find
