1. Find the sum of all roots of the equation: $$ \begin{gathered} \sqrt{2 x^{2}-2024 x+1023131}+\sqrt{3 x^{2}-2025 x+1023132}+\sqrt{4 x^{2}-2026 x+1023133}= \\ =\sqrt{x^{2}-x+1}+\sqrt{2 x^{2}-2 x+2}+\sqrt{3 x^{2}-3 x+3} \end{gathered} $$ (L. S. Korechkova)
Note that the radicands in the left part are obtained from the corresponding radicands in the right part by adding $x^{2}-2023 x+1023130=$ $(x-1010)(x-1013)$. Since all radicands are positive (it is sufficient to check for $x^{2}-x+1$ and for $\left.2 x^{2}-2024 x+1023131=2(x-506)^{2}+511059\right)$, the left part is less than the right part when $1010<x<1013$ and greater when $x \notin[1010,1013]$. Equality is achieved only at $x=1010$ and $x=1013$, so the answer is -2023. Criteria. If the answer is found but it is not proven that there are no other roots of the equation, no more than 2 points.

5. A natural number $n$ is called cubish if $n^{3}+13 n-273$ is a cube of a natural number. Find the sum of all cubish numbers.
If $0<13n-273<13\cdot21$, so it remains to check all other numbers. If $n=21$, then $13n-273=0$, so 21 is cubic. For $n-3n^{2}+3n-1$, the number $n$ will not be cubic (i.e., for $8<n<21$). If $n=8$, then $13n-273=-169=-3\cdot8^{2}+3\cdot8-1$, so it is cubic. For $n \leqslant 5$, the expression $n^{3}+13n-273$ will be negative, so they are definitely not cubic. The numbers 6 and 7 are not cubic, which can be verified directly. In total, the answer is $8+21=29$.

1. A motorcyclist set out from point $A$ with an initial speed of 90 km/h, uniformly increasing his speed (that is, over equal time intervals, his speed increases by the same amount). After three hours, the motorcyclist arrived at point $B$, passing through $C$ along the way. After that, he turned around and, still uniformly increasing his speed, headed back. Two hours later, he passed point $C$ again at a speed of 110 km/h and continued on to $A$. Find the distance between points $A$ and $C$.
In 5 hours, the speed changed from 90 km/h to 110 km/h, so the acceleration is 4 km/h$^2$. From $A$ to $B$ the distance is $$ 90 \cdot 3+\frac{4}{2} \cdot 3^{2}=270+18=288(\text{km}) $$ from $B$ to $C-$ $$ 110 \cdot 2-\frac{4}{2} \cdot 2^{2}=220-8=212(\text{km}) $$ And the required distance is 76 km.

3. Masha and Lena left home and went to the store for ice cream. Masha walked faster and got to the store in 12 minutes. Spending 2 minutes buying the ice cream, she headed back. After another 2 minutes, she met Lena. Walking a bit more, Masha finished her ice cream and, deciding to buy another one, turned around and went back to the store. As a result, Masha arrived at the store with Lena. How many minutes did Lena walk to the store?
Masha covers $1 / 6$ of the entire distance in 2 minutes, which means Lena covered $5 / 6$ of the distance by the time they met, and it took her 16 minutes. Therefore, $1 / 6$ of the distance takes Lena $16: 5=3 \frac{1}{5}$ minutes, i.e., 3 minutes and 12 seconds. For the entire distance, she would need 19 minutes and 12 seconds.

1. Petya prints five digits on the computer screen, none of which are zeros. Every second, the computer removes the initial digit and appends to the end the last digit of the sum of the remaining four digits. (For example, if Petya enters 12345, after one second it will become 23454, then 34546, and so on. However, he can enter any five digits, not necessarily 12345.) At some point, Petya stops the process. What is the minimum possible sum of the five digits that could be on the screen at that moment? (A. A. Tesler)
The record 00000 cannot appear on the screen, as it can only result from 00000. A record with four zeros and one also cannot appear, since in that case, the last digit would not equal the remainder of the division of the sum of the first four by 10. However, a sum of digits equal to 2 is possible. For example, by working backwards, we can find an example of obtaining the record 00011 (or 10001): $00011 \leftarrow 10001 \leftarrow 91000 \leftarrow 09100 \leftarrow 00910 \leftarrow 20091 \leftarrow 72009 \leftarrow 17200 \leftarrow 01720 \leftarrow 40172 \leftarrow$ $24017 \leftarrow 52401 \leftarrow 95240 \leftarrow 89524$.

2. A company produces a certain product in the amount of $x_{1}$ in January, $x_{2}$ in February, $\ldots, x_{12}$ in December. The average production of the product from the beginning of the year is calculated as follows: $x_{1}=x_{1}, \quad \bar{x}_{2}=\frac{1}{2}\left(x_{1}+x_{2}\right), \quad \bar{x}_{3}=\frac{1}{3}\left(x_{1}+x_{2}+x_{3}\right), \quad \ldots, \quad \bar{x}_{12}=\frac{1}{12}\left(x_{1}+x_{2}+\ldots+x_{12}\right)$. It is known that $\bar{x}_{k}x_{k}$ for $k$ from 7 to 12. In which month was the average production of the product from the beginning of the year the highest?
Note that \[ \begin{aligned} \bar{x}_{k+1} & =\frac{1}{k+1}\left(x_{1}+x_{2}+\ldots+x_{k+1}\right)=\frac{1}{k+1}\left(k \bar{x}_{k}+x_{k+1}\right) \\ x_{k+1}-\bar{x}_{k+1} & =k\left(\bar{x}_{k+1}-\bar{x}_{k}\right) \end{aligned} \] In total, we have found that the average production increases (decreases) when the production in the month is higher (lower) than the corresponding average. Therefore, the maximum was in the sixth month.

The sum of the digits initially equals $0+2+4+6+8=20$. By erasing a digit, Vasya subtracts 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8 from the sum of the digits. The resulting number is divisible by 18, i.e., it is divisible by 9, which means the sum of its digits is divisible by 9. Therefore, Vasya can only erase 2 (otherwise, the sum of the digits will not be divisible by 9). Criteria: Only the correct answer - 1 point.

8.2. Find the largest four-digit number in which all digits are different and which is divisible by any of its digits (don't forget to explain why it is the largest).
Firstly, the desired number cannot have the form $\overline{987 a}$, because divisibility by the digit 7 would mean that $a$ is 0 or 7. This means the desired number is smaller. Secondly, consider numbers of the form $\overline{986 a}$. Divisibility by the digit 9 would mean that $9+8+6+a=a+23$ is divisible by 9. Therefore, $a=4$. Thus, we get the number 9864. The sum of its digits is 27, so it is divisible by 9, and since the number 864 is divisible by 8, the number itself is divisible by 8. Therefore, it is divisible by 6 and 4.

Problem 4.7. At the festival of namesakes, 45 Alexanders, 122 Borises, 27 Vasily, and several Gennady arrived. At the beginning of the festival, all of them stood in a row so that no two people with the same name stood next to each other. What is the minimum number of Gennady that could have arrived at the festival?
Since there are a total of 122 Boris, and between any two of them stands at least one non-Boris (Alexander/Vasily/Gennady), there are at least 121 non-Boris. Since there are a total of 45 Alexanders and 27 Vasilies, there are at least $121-45-27=49$ Gennadys. Note that there could have been exactly 49 Gennadys at the festival. Suppose in the line stood 122 Boris. Then 121 gaps between them were filled by other people: the first 45 gaps were filled by one Alexander each, the next 27 by one Vasily each, and the next 49 by one Gennady each.

Let the number of blue chameleons become $x$. Then initially, there were $5 x$ blue chameleons. Accordingly, the number of red chameleons initially was $140-5 x$. Then the number of red chameleons became $3 \cdot(140-5 x)$. Since the total number of chameleons remained the same, we get the equation $$ x+3 \cdot(140-5 x)=140 $$ Solving it, we find $x=20$.

Problem 11.1. Petya wrote down ten natural numbers in a row as follows: the first two numbers he wrote down arbitrarily, and each subsequent number, starting from the third, was equal to the sum of the two preceding ones. Find the fourth number if the seventh is 42 and the ninth is 110.
From the condition, it follows that the eighth number is equal to the difference between the ninth and the seventh, i.e., $110-42=68$. Then the sixth is $68-42=26$, the fifth is $42-26=16$, and the fourth is $26-16=10$. Remark. In fact, the numbers on the board are the doubled Fibonacci numbers.

Problem 11.2. In the store, there are 9 headphones, 13 computer mice, and 5 keyboards. In addition, there are 4 sets of "keyboard and mouse" and 5 sets of "headphones and mouse". In how many ways can you buy three items: headphones, a keyboard, and a mouse? Answer: 646.
Let's consider the cases of whether any set was purchased. - Suppose the set "keyboard and mouse" was purchased, then headphones were added to it. This results in exactly $4 \cdot 9=36$ ways to make the purchase. - Suppose the set "headphones and mouse" was purchased, then a keyboard was added to it. This results in exactly $5 \cdot 5=25$ ways to make the purchase. - Suppose no set was purchased, then headphones, mouse, and keyboard were purchased separately. This results in exactly $9 \cdot 13 \cdot 5=585$ ways to make the purchase. In total, there are exactly $36+25+585=646$ desired ways.

Problem 11.3. The teacher wrote the number 1818 on the board. Vasya noticed that if a multiplication sign is written between the hundreds and tens digits, the value of the resulting expression is a perfect square $\left(18 \times 18=324=18^{2}\right)$. What is the next four-digit number after 1818 that has the same property?
Since we need to find the nearest four-digit number, let's try to find it in the form $\overline{18 a b}$. Then the number $18 \cdot \overline{a b}=3^{2} \cdot(2 \cdot \overline{a b})$ must be a perfect square. From this, it follows that $2 \cdot \overline{a b}$ must also be a perfect square. Clearly, $\overline{a b} \in\{19,20,21 \ldots, 31\}$ do not meet this condition, but $\overline{a b}=32$ does. Therefore, the answer to the problem is the number 1832. Remark. The same answer could have been obtained by proving that $\overline{a b}=2 s^{2}$ for some natural number $s>3$.

Problem 11.6. Oleg wrote down several composite natural numbers less than 1500 on the board. It turned out that the greatest common divisor of any two of them is 1. What is the maximum number of numbers that Oleg could have written down?
Prime numbers less than $\sqrt{1500}$ will be called small. There are exactly 12 such numbers: $2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37$. Note that each of Oleg's numbers has a small divisor (otherwise it would be not less than $43^{2} > 1500$), and different numbers have different small divisors (otherwise the GCD of these numbers would be greater than 1). Therefore, the number of Oleg's numbers is no less than the total number of small numbers, i.e., no less than 12. An example with 12 numbers is easy to construct: these are the numbers $2^{2}, 3^{2}, 5^{2}, 7^{2}, 11^{2}, 13^{2}, 17^{2}, 19^{2}, 23^{2}, 29^{2}, 31^{2}, 37^{2}$.

Instructions. Adjacent numbers cannot be of the same type, so larger and smaller numbers alternate, and there are four of each. 8 is large. 7 is also large, since a small number must be less than two numbers, and seven is less than only one. 1 and 2 are small. 3 and 4 cannot both be large, as there are only two larger numbers, and they cannot be adjacent in this case. Therefore, the sum of the two other large numbers (besides 7 and 8) is at least 8. And the sum of the large numbers is at least 23. Example: $8,6,7,1,3,2,5,4$. Criteria.

Let's number the batteries: $1,2, \ldots, 22$. The first six tests will involve inserting batteries into the camera as follows: $1,2,3 ; 4,5,6 ; \ldots, 16,17,18$. If at least one of these groups turns on the camera, everything is fine. If not, then among the first 18 batteries, there are at least 6 discharged ones, which means that among the last four batteries, there is at most one discharged one.

# Solution Let's order the shareholders by the ascending share of their stocks. The 1500th shareholder has no less than $\frac{50}{1500} \%=\frac{1}{30} \%$ of the shares. If the 1500th has less, then the first 1500 shareholders together have less than $50 \%$ of the shares. Therefore, the first 2016 shareholders together have no less than $50 \%+(2016-1500) \frac{1}{30} \%=67.2 \%$ of the shares. The largest share of the 2017th shareholder is $32.8 \%$ of the shares. ## Criteria A solution that arrives at the correct answer but assumes that each shareholder has no less than $\frac{1}{30} \%$ should be scored 4 points.

1. Given a finite set of cards. On each of them, either the number 1 or the number -1 is written (exactly one number on each card), and there are 100 more cards with -1 than cards with 1. If for each pair of different cards, the product of the numbers on them is found, and all these products are summed, the result is 1000. How many cards have the number 1?
Let the number of cards with 1 be $m$, and the number of cards with -1 be $k$. Then, among all pairs, there are $\frac{m(m-1)}{2}$ pairs of two 1s, $\frac{k(k-1)}{2}$ pairs of two -1s, and $m k$ pairs of 1 and -1. Therefore, the sum in the condition is $\frac{m(m-1)}{2}+\frac{k(k-1)}{2}-m k$, from which we get $m^{2}-2 m k+k^{2}=2000+m+k, (m-k)^{2}=2000+m+k$. According to the condition $k-m=100$, so $m+k=8000$ and $2 m=7900, m=3950$.

1. The bathtub fills with cold water in 6 minutes 40 seconds, with hot water - in 8 minutes. In addition, if the plug is removed from a full bathtub, the water will drain in 13 minutes 20 seconds. How long will it take to fill the bathtub completely, provided that both taps are open, but the bathtub is not plugged?
First, we will convert the time in seconds to minutes: 6 minutes 40 seconds will be replaced by $6+2 / 3$, or $20 / 3$, and 13 minutes 20 seconds will be replaced by $13+1 / 3$, or $40 / 3$. Then, in one minute, the cold water will fill $3 / 20$ of the bathtub, the hot water will fill $1 / 8$ of the bathtub, and $3 / 40$ of the bathtub will drain. Therefore, in one minute, the bathtub will fill $3 / 20+1 / 8-3 / 40$, i.e., $1 / 5$ of the bathtub. Thus, the entire bathtub will be filled in 5 minutes.

Let $y$ be the last digit of the original number, and $x$ be the five-digit number after crossing out. Then the resulting number is $10 x + y - x = 9 x + y = 654321$. Dividing this number by 9 with a remainder (and considering that $y$ does not exceed 9), we get the remainder $y=3$ and the quotient $x=72702$.

Each of them said one of two phrases: "There is a liar next to me" or "There is a liar opposite me." What is the minimum number of liars among them? Provide an example and prove that there cannot be fewer liars.
Let's number all the people standing clockwise (this way, people with numbers 1 and 4, 2 and 5, 3 and 6 will stand opposite each other). Zero liars is obviously impossible (then there would be only knights and no one could say any of the phrases). If there is one liar, let's say his number is 1, then the knight with number 3 has two knight neighbors and a knight standing opposite him. This means he cannot say either of these two phrases. Example with two liars. Liars have numbers 1 and 2 and say "There is a liar opposite me," which is also said by knights 4 and 5. The remaining knights (3 and 6) say "There is a liar next to me."

From the condition, it follows that the numbers ZARAZA and ALMAZ are divisible by 4. By the property of divisibility by 4, the numbers ZA and AZ are also multiples of 4. In particular, it follows from this that both digits 3 and A are even. But a number divisible by 4, in which the second-to-last digit is even, must end in a digit that is a multiple of 4.

A sum of 2 can be obtained either as $1+1$ or as $2+0$. If the number contains the digit 2, then it will have four digits, three of which are $-2,0,0$, which means the number cannot be less than 2000. At the same time, 2000 meets the condition. If 2 is obtained as $1+1$, then at least four digits $-1,1,0,0$ are required. With these, it is impossible to get pairwise sums of $2,0,2$, 2, which means there must be at least 5 digits, i.e., the number will definitely be greater than 2000.

2. Find the value of the fraction $$ \frac{2 \cdot 2020}{1+\frac{1}{1+2}+\frac{1}{1+2+3}+\ldots+\frac{1}{1+2+3+\ldots+2020}} $$
Let's denote the denominator of the fraction by $q$. By repeatedly applying the formula for the sum of an arithmetic progression, we get that $$ q=\frac{2}{1 \cdot 2}+\frac{2}{2 \cdot 3}+\frac{2}{3 \cdot 4}+\ldots+\frac{2}{2020 \cdot 2021} $$ Now, using the identity $\frac{1}{k(k+1)}=\frac{1}{k}-\frac{1}{k+1}$, we get $$ q=\frac{2}{1}-\frac{2}{2}+\frac{2}{2}-\frac{2}{3}+\frac{2}{3}-\frac{2}{4}+\frac{2}{4}-\ldots+\frac{2}{2020}-\frac{2}{2021}=\frac{2 \cdot 2020}{2021} $$ Substituting this expression into the original fraction and simplifying it, we get the answer: 2021.

4. Snow White entered a room where there were 30 chairs around a round table. Some of the chairs were occupied by dwarfs. It turned out that Snow White could not sit down without having someone next to her. What is the minimum number of dwarfs that could have been at the table? (Explain how the dwarfs should have been seated and why, if there were fewer dwarfs, there would be a chair with no one sitting next to it).
If there were three consecutive empty chairs at the table in some place, Snow White could sit down in such a way that no one would sit next to her. Therefore, in any set of three consecutive chairs, at least one must be occupied by a dwarf. Since there are 30 chairs in total, there cannot be fewer than 10 dwarfs. We will show that it is possible to seat 10 dwarfs in such a way that the condition of the problem is satisfied: we will seat the dwarfs every three chairs: on the first chair, on the fourth chair, on the seventh chair, and so on. Then the condition of the problem will be met.

That is, a total of 24 different numbers can be obtained (it is also possible to verify this explicitly by listing all suitable numbers). Let's find out how many of the listed numbers will not suit us. These are all numbers starting with 1, there are 6 of them. And 2 more numbers: 2134, 2143, because if the number starts with 2, the second digit can only be 1. Then the suitable numbers are $24-6-2=16$.

A number not less than 5 is 5. There is exactly one number 5. Three numbers are not less than 4, so exactly two numbers are equal to 4. Six numbers are greater than 2, meaning all of them are not less than 3. Therefore, exactly three numbers are equal to 3. Seven numbers are not less than 2, so one number is equal to 2.

Since there are exactly 21 days from April 10 to April 30, each day of the week occurred exactly 3 times during this period. Therefore, this statement cannot be false. This means the first statement is false, and there were only 2 Mondays from April 1 to April 20 (there could not have been four, as at least 22 days would be needed for that). This could only happen if April 1 was a Tuesday. Therefore, the last Tuesday in April was the 29th.

# 6. Option 1. Nезнайка named four numbers, and Ponchik wrote down all their pairwise sums on six cards. Then he lost one card, and the numbers left on the remaining cards were $270, 360, 390, 500, 620$. What number did Ponchik write on the lost card?
Let the original numbers be $a \leq b \leq c \leq d$. Suppose the card with the maximum sum is lost. Then this sum is $c+d$. Therefore, $a+b=270$ and $a+b+c+d>270+620=890$. On the other hand, the sum of all numbers on the cards is $3a+3b+2c+2d=270+360+390+500+620=2140$. We get that $2140>1780+2c+2d$, hence $c+d<180$. This is a contradiction. Similarly, we can prove that the card with the smallest numbers was not lost. Therefore, the sum of all numbers on the cards is $270+620=890$. All pairwise sums can be divided into the following groups: 1) $a+b, c+d$, 2) $a+c, b+d$, 3) $a+d, b+c$. The sum of the numbers in each group is 890. This is only possible if the lost card has the number $890-360=530$, since 620 and 270, 390 and 500 form pairs.

# Solution Since a three-digit number cannot start with zero, the two followed by a zero cannot be in the units place of any three-digit number in the sequence. Let's assume the two is in the tens place of a three-digit number. Then the zero following it is in the units place of the same number, i.e., the number ends in 20. There are 9 such numbers: 120, 220, ..., 920. Finally, if the two followed by a zero is in the hundreds place, then the corresponding three-digit number starts with 20. There are 10 such numbers: 200, 201, ..., 209. Therefore, the zero will follow the two 19 times in total.

In the addition, the second digit of the first addend АБВ has changed (Д instead of Б). This could only happen if 1 was carried over from the units place to the tens place during the addition. However, the first digit also changed (Г instead of А). This means that 1 was also carried over from the tens place to the hundreds place during the addition. This is only possible if Б $+1=10$.

Let the first line have the equation $y=s$, and the second line have the equation $y=t$. Then the distance between the lines is $(t-s)$. The length of segment $A B$ is equal to the absolute value of the difference of the roots of the equation $x^{2}+a x+b=s$. We can express the difference of the roots using the formula for solving the quadratic equation $x^{2}+a x+(b-s)=0$: $$ \frac{-a+\sqrt{a^{2}-4(b-s)}}{2}-\frac{-a-\sqrt{a^{2}-4(b-s)}}{2}=\sqrt{a^{2}-4(b-s)}=5 $$ from which we derive $$ a^{2}-4(b-s)=25 $$ Similarly, we obtain $$ a^{2}-4(b-t)=121 $$ Subtract the first equation from the second and we get $$ 121-25=\left(a^{2}-4(b-t)\right)-\left(a^{2}-4(b-s)\right)=4(t-s) $$ We have $4(t-s)=96$, that is, $t-s=24$.

How many times faster would Vanya have caught up with Anya (compared to the actual time) if, in addition, Anya walked twice as slow
Let Ane's speed be $v$, and Vanya's speed be $V$. The distance Ane has walked is proportional to $v$, while Vanya catches up with her at a speed of $u=V-v$. When Vanya doubles his speed, this difference triples, i.e., $u+V=2V-v=3u$. From this, we get $V=2u=2v$. If Vanya's speed doubles and Ane's speed is halved, the new difference in speeds will be $3.5v$, which is 7 times the new speed of Masha. Therefore, Vanya will catch up to her 7 times faster.

4. For what least natural $\mathrm{k}$ does the quadratic trinomial $$ y=k x^{2}-p x+q \text { with natural coefficients } p \text{ and } q \text{ have two } $$ distinct positive roots less than 1?
First, let's estimate the coefficient $\mathrm{k}_{\text{from below. Let }} 0k^{2} x_{1}\left(1-x_{1}\right) x_{2}\left(1-x_{2}\right) \geq 1 \Rightarrow k>4 \text{. Thus, we have obtained the }$ $$ $$ lower bound. To show the accuracy of the estimate, it is sufficient to construct an example with $k=5: y=5 x^{2}-5 x+1$. Recommendations for checking: Constructing only an example, without an estimate - 3 points; Obtaining only the estimate (without an example) - 4 points. ## Recommendations for checking Constructing only an example, without an estimate - 3 points; Obtaining only the estimate (without an example) - 4 points.

Problem 4.2. Petya has 25 coins, each with a denomination of $1, 2, 5$, or 10 rubles. Among these coins, 19 are not two-ruble coins, 20 are not ten-ruble coins, and 16 are not one-ruble coins. How many five-ruble coins does Petya have?
Since among Petya's coins, 19 are not two-ruble coins, Petya has a total of 6 two-ruble coins. Similarly, it follows that Petya has 5 ten-ruble coins and 9 one-ruble coins. Thus, Petya has $25-6-5-9=5$ five-ruble coins.

Problem 5.3. By September 1st, Vlad bought himself several ballpoint and gel pens. He noticed that if all the pens he bought were gel pens, he would have paid 4 times more than he actually did. And if all the pens were ballpoint pens, the purchase would have cost him 2 times less than the actual price. How many times more expensive is a gel pen compared to a ballpoint pen?
If all the pens were gel pens, their price would be 4 times the actual price, which in turn is 2 times more than if all the pens were ballpoint pens. Therefore, gel pens cost $4 \cdot 2=8$ times more than ballpoint pens. Consequently, one gel pen is 8 times more expensive than one ballpoint pen.

Problem 5.6. Vanya received three sets of candies as a New Year's gift. In the sets, there are three types of candies: lollipops, chocolate, and jelly. The total number of lollipops in all three sets is equal to the total number of chocolate candies in all three sets, as well as the total number of jelly candies in all three sets. In the first set, there are an equal number of chocolate and jelly candies, and 7 more lollipops. In the second set, there are an equal number of lollipops and chocolate candies, and 15 fewer jelly candies. How many candies are in the third set, if it is known that there are no lollipops there?
There are more lollipops than jelly candies in the first set by 7, and in the second set by 15. Since the total number of each type of candy is the same in all sets, and there are 0 lollipops in the third set, there must be $7+15=22$ jelly candies in the third set. Similarly, there are more lollipops than chocolate candies in the first set by 7, and in the second set by 0. Since the total number of each type of candy is the same in all sets, and there are 0 lollipops in the third set, there must be 7 chocolate candies in the third set. Therefore, the total number of candies in the third set is $22+7+0=29$.

Problem 6.3. Three merchants: Foma, Yerema, and Julius met in Novgorod. If Foma gives Yerema 70 gold coins, then Yerema and Julius will have the same amount of money. If Foma gives Yerema 40 gold coins, then Foma and Julius will have the same amount of money. How many gold coins should Foma give Yerema so that they both have the same amount of money?
From the first condition, it follows that Yuliy has 70 more coins than Yeremy. From the second condition, it follows that Foma has 40 more coins than Yuliy. Therefore, Foma has $40+70=110$ more coins than Yeremy. For them to have an equal amount of money, Foma must give Yeremy half of this difference, which is $\frac{110}{2}=55$ coins.

Problem 6.4. In a coastal village, 7 people go fishing every day, 8 people go fishing every other day, 3 people go fishing every three days, and the rest do not fish at all. Yesterday, 12 people went fishing, and today, 10 people are fishing. How many people will go fishing tomorrow?
Let's calculate how many times in total they fished yesterday and today. 7 people who fish every day fished 2 times each, i.e., a total of 14 times. 8 people who fish every other day fished exactly 1 time each, i.e., a total of 8 times. Therefore, these 15 people fished a total of $14+8=22$ times over the past two days. According to the problem, they fished $12+10=22$ times in total over the past two days. Therefore, the fishermen who fish every three days were not present yesterday and today, and they will all come to fish tomorrow. Additionally, 7 people who fish every day will come tomorrow, and $12-7=5$ fishermen who fish every other day will also come. Thus, a total of $3+7+5=15$ people will come to fish tomorrow.
