But the problem says that $n$ can only be an odd integer greater than $1$. Why are you bothered about even values of $n$?

Re: BdMO National 2014: Junior 3
Here are some hints- Hint $1$: Did you notice that, \[(15*80)_{subrata_-minute} = (24*60)_{traditional_-minute}\] and, \[(10*80)_{subrata_-minute} = (16*60)_{traditional_-minute}\] From this information, can you deduce, $1$ $subrata_-minute$ = how many $traditional_-minute$? Hint $2$: (answer) If yo...

Re: BdMO National 2014: Junior 10
Atiab, I've hardly used some English here. All the important things are written as equations. Try focusing on the maths instead of getting bothered with the English. I believe you'll be just fine. Still, if you have difficulty, let me know which step you didn't get. And, please post new problems in ...

Subrata has invented a new type of clock,according to which, there are $15$ hours in each day and $80$ minutes in each hour. For example Subrata's clock shows $10:00$ when the actual time is $16:00$ in a traditional clock. If the time is $20:36$ in a traditional clock, then what will be the time in ...

Re: BdMO National 2014: Junior 10
I'll give a step by step solution and I encourage everyone to think a lot before looking at the steps since it's an amazing problem. :) Step $1$: Most people actually do not understand what the problem is asking for (Even I did not get it at first). Let's define $d_i$ as the number of chocolates the...

Re: chocolate problem
Since it is a BdMO problem, I opened a different thread for it in the BdMO section so that everyone can find it easily.

Re: Can anyone help me finding the solution
Now that I look at this, my solution looks faulty. Please ignore it.
The problem has no solution. (Why? One of the sons' age has to 13 or 26, But setting these as a son's age, we cannot get any valid solution.)

Re: giant prime
সংখ্যাতে 1 ছাড়া অন্য কোন অঙ্ক থাকতে পারবে না? (গঠন দেখে সেরকমই মনে হচ্ছে তবে স্টেটমেন্ট-এ পরিষ্কার বলা থাকলে ভাল হয়)

Hint $1$: So, $\frac {a_1+a_2}2 = 1 \Rightarrow a_1+a_2 = 2$ and, $a_1,a_2 \geq 1$. Can you deduce the value of $a_0$ now? There was a typo in Hint $1$.Here's a corrected version.
