Problem 18

Let $n$ be a 5-digit number, and let q and r be the quotient and remainder, respectively, when $n$ is divided by 100. For how many values of $n$ is $q + r$ divisible by 11?

Problem 19

Let $S$ be the set of permutations of the sequence $1,2,3,4,5$ for which the first term is not $1$. A permutation is chosen randomly from $S$. The probability that the second term is $2$, in lowest terms, is $a/b$. What is $a+b$?
