Problem 1
Abe can paint the room in 15 hours, Bea can paint 50 percent faster than Abe, and Coe can paint twice as fast as Abe. Abe begins to
paint the room and works alone for the first hour and a half. Then Bea joins Abe, and they work together until half the room is painted.
Then Coe joins Abe and Bea, and they work together until the entire room is painted. Find the number of minutes after Abe begins for
the three of them to finish painting the room.
Solution
Problem 2
Arnold is studying the prevalence of three health risk factors, denoted by A, B, and C, within a population of men. For each of the three
factors, the probability that a randomly selected man in the population has only this risk factor (and none of the others) is 0.1. For any
two of the three factors, the probability that a randomly selected man has exactly these two risk factors (but not the third) is 0.14. The
probability that a randomly selected man has all three risk factors, given that he has A and B is . The probability that a man has none
of the three risk factors given that he does not have risk factor A is , where and are relatively prime positive integers. Find

Solution
Problem 3
A rectangle has sides of length and 36. A hinge is installed at each vertex of the rectangle, and at the midpoint of each side of length
36. The sides of length can be pressed toward each other keeping those two sides parallel so the rectangle becomes a convex
hexagon as shown. When the figure is a hexagon with the sides of length parallel and separated by a distance of 24, the hexagon has
the same area as the original rectangle. Find .

Problem 6
Charles has two six-sided dice. One of the die is fair, and the other die is biased so that it comes up six with probability and each of
the other five sides has probability . Charles chooses one of the two dice at random and rolls it three times. Given that the first two
rolls are both sixes, the probability that the third roll will also be a six is , where and are relatively prime positive integers. Find
