Scribbling paper, graph paper, ruler and compasses are permitted, but are not essential . Diagrams are NOT drawn to scale. They are intended only as aids. 4. There are 25 multiple-choice questions, each with 5 possible answers given and 5 questions that require a whole number between 0 and 999. The questions generally get harder as you work through the paper. There is no penalty for an incorrect response. This is a competition not a test; do not expect to answer all questions. You are only competing against your own year in your own State or Region so different years doing the same paper are not compared. . Read the instructions on the Answer Sheet carefully.

How many rectangular prisms, including cubes, are there whose vertices are vertices of the cubes, and whose edges are parallel to the edges of the original rectangular prism? (Rectangular prisms with the same dimensions but in different positions are different.) 28. ‘The number 2008! (factorial 2008) means the product of all the integers 1, 2, 3, 4, +++, 2007, 2008.
