Easier way to solve Question 7 (11:57): Every corner of the 100-d unit cube can be represented as some combination of 100 ones and zeros -- e.g., {1, 0, 0, 0, 1...}. The number of different distances to those corners (from an arbitrary starting corner) is the same as the total number of ones (or zeroes) in our vector. (For example, {1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0...} and {0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0...} are the same length.) There can be between 1 and 100 ones in the vector, inclusive, so the answer is 100.
For question 8, the only integer that works is 76. Here’s why: Each conditional puts the number into 3 different mutually exclusive ranges. Therefor Grace’s integer cannot fall into more than one category at a time. However these 3 conditions sufficiently cover all of the integers. Therefor Grace’s number must be in exactly one of the conditions (cannot be in none of them). Suppose Grace’s number is not a multiple of 4. This means that the other two conditions are false, therefor the number would be both a multiple of 6 and NOT a multiple of 3. However this is a contradiction because any multiple of 6 is a multiple of 3 as well. Therefor Grace’s number is not NOT a multiple of 4. We now know that Grace’s number is a multiple of 4. This means that it is either a multiple of 3 or it is NOT a multiple of 6 (which are mutually exclusive subsets anyways). Let’s look at them separately. Suppose her number is both a multiple of 3 and 4 (and thus 12). No integer in the range 50 and 59 inclusive will be a multiple of 12. Suppose her number is a multiple of 4 and not a multiple of 6. 72 and 76 are the only 2 numbers in the range that divide 4, however only 76 will NOT be divisible by 6 Grace is thinking of 76.
Great analysis, my way was a bit more brute force, but in the same way as you. If the number is a multiple of 3, then it will either be 51, 54 or 57. All of these numbers are NOT multiples of 4, therefore we cannot be in that 50-59 range. At the moment, we go to the 60-69 range. In that range, we would have to consider all the numbers that are not multiple of 3 or 4 (the range already tells us that it is not 4x, also if it's 3x, we would be in 50-59). The numbers that fit that are 61, 62, 65, 67, 68. We see that non of these are divisible by 6, therefore that would put us into the 70-79 range. In that range, we need numbers that are divisible by 4 (otherwise we fall into 60-69), that are not divisible by 3 (otherwise we go into 50-59) and by default not divisible by 6. Divisible by 4 are only 72 and 76 and out of those two, the only one not divisible by 3 and 6 is 76.
Luke's thinking on this one: "If the number is a multiple of 6, then it's a multiple of 3. But if it's a multiple of 3, it has to be 54, which isn't divisible by 4. Therefore it's a number in the 70 to 79 range that is a multiple of 4 and not a multiple of 6. Gotta be 76."
I made truth tables like a psychopath. Then I immediately got rid of ones where it was 6 T but either of four or 3 were not since 4 is hiding the two needed to prove six. Then I got rid of ones where both 6 and 4 were false since those couldn't coexist and that left FTF which leads to 70-79 and then you cut out the first bunch. I am proud since it has been a bit since I learned geometry.
7:10 The trick is to rewrite 1/m + 1/p as (p+m)/pm. Then, since (m, n, p) is a geometric sequence, mnp = n^3 = 27 implies that n = 3, and mp = pm = 9. Also, since m+n+p = 12, m+p = p+m = 9. Finally, 1/m + 1/p = (p+m)/pm = 9/9 = 1. ✅
@@ggbasiQNot sure why you think m has to be 1. n HAS to be 3, due to the ‘geometric series’ condition combined with the triple product being 27. If you then try m = 1, you get: n + p = 11 p = 8 But then mnp = 1•3•8 = 24. In actuality, m = ~1.146 and p = ~7.854. The ratio of the geometric series (m, n, p) is ~2.618 (as opposed to 3, which is the ratio of the GS (1, 3, 9)).
My simplest solution to Question 3 at 5:07: We have five non-gold medals to place on a 4x7 shelf that is horizontally symmetric. This gives 4 middle spots for unpaired medals and 12 outer spots for pairs. These are the only ways to fit our five medals: A) two pairs and one unpaired, or B) one pair and three unpaired. A) 12 spots for first pair, times 11 remaining spots for second pair, times 4 middle spots for unpaired. B) 12 spots for the pair times 16 arrangements for the middle (4 all-silver plus 4*3 mixed). So 12*11*4+12*16 = 12*60 = 720.

Every factorial above 4! is a multiple of 20, so they will give a remainder of 0 when divided by 20. 4! gives a remainder of 4, 3! gives a remainder of 6, 2! gives a remainder of 2, and 1! gives a remainder of 1. Add up all those remainders, and you get a total remainder of 13. As for the fact he mentions, every factorial above 4! is also a multiple of 10. So, for any n>4, the sum of any list of consecutive factorials 1!+...+n! will have a ones digit equivalent to the ones digit of 1!+2!+3!+4!. (All higher factorials will contribute nothing to the ones digit.) And 1!+2!+3!+4!=33, which of course has a ones digit of 3. So the sum of all higher factorials must also end in 3.
He said he "knew" that every sum of factorials 1! + 2! +3! ... ends in a 3. Therefore the remainder in question had to be a number ending in 3...and 13 was the only such choice. How on earth he "knew" the factoid about the 3's (true for any (n>=4) is beyond me. Turns out the last two digits are always 13 for any n>=4. For why it's true, @mriswith88 gave the perfect answer. The stuff these kids know "by inspection" is pretty amazing!
Sorry to say but what happens here is not a proper representation of competitive mathematics. Lot of stuff done here is just practise some memory + Doing some tricks with the MCQ answer options.
No idea why youtube recommended this to me but I have to say - the format is terrible! Just give everyone 30s to solve it (they will press the correct answer so you know the time when they had it) and then let them all show the answer and assign points based on speed... So Luke had it in 3s and gets 950p, someone else had it in 15s get 500p, etc... And also, don't use examples from books they might know.. just invest some time and prepare original questions.
Its awesome that you write who won in the description so that people who wants to see an exciting competition does not have to bother watching the video. Some people call that a SPOILER but honestly it saves a lot of time. Good thinking, you must be a math genius!
it took me around 10 mind to solve the question that's answer was 720 there are 2 major cases And then further 2 cases in One of these 2 cases so we have to solve three cases that's two much .How can they solve it so fast
anyone knows where i can find the answer paths to those questions? wanna know how to solve but struggle. Do they think their audience automatically knows? :D
Luke might have finished all the questions on the graduation exam in his class, while the majority of his friends were still working on the first question.
Yup. School doesn't teach you this. Private mentoring, self teaching, circles, workshops do. School math will be boring for these guys, they would have finished calculus before high school.
how on earth did i get the question with the medals right.. i havent been doin math soo long. i just crunched 7! divided by 7 in my calc out of intuition. i never learned or studied these kind of fields in math in school. was that random luck or what now hahaha
You split the group of 3 into 1 and 2, but there's also 4 sets of permutations where the three medals are split across 3 rows (as the centre medal), which is 4 * 12 * 4 for the other 192 permutations. I did the same thing lol.
@@Degenx2 Ahh!! You're right, I am definitely missing those cases where 3 silvers are all in the middle slots. Except I think those only account for 4 * 12 = 48 permutations. Then there are the ones where the two bronzes are both in the middle. For those you get another (4 choose 2) * 2 * 12 = 144 That gets us to 720!
I did this one by partitioning the non-gold medals using integer partitions of 5. Partition and config Count {5} 24 {4, 1} BBSS, S 72 {3, 2} SSS, BB 108 {3, 2} BSS, SS 108 {3, 1, 1} BBS, S, S 36 {3, 1, 1} BSS, B, S 72 {3, 1, 1} SSS, B, B 36 {2, 2, 1} BB, SS, S 216 {2, 1, 1, 1} BB, S, S, S 12 {2, 1, 1, 1} SS, B, B, S 36
We have five non-gold medals to place on a 4x7 shelf that is horizontally symmetric. This gives 4 middle spots for unpaired medals and 12 outer spots for pairs. These are the only ways to fit our five medals: A) two pairs and one unpaired, or B) one pair and three unpaired. A) 12 spots for first pair, times 11 remaining spots for second pair, times 4 middle spots for unpaired. B) 12 spots for the pair times 16 arrangements for the middle (4 all-silver plus 4*3 mixed). So 12*11*4+12*16 = 12*60 = 720.

Every factorial above 4! is a multiple of 20, so they will give a remainder of 0 when divided by 20. 4! gives a remainder of 4, 3! gives a remainder of 6, 2! gives a remainder of 2, and 1! gives a remainder of 1. Add up all those remainders, and you get a total remainder of 13.
As for the fact he mentions, every factorial above 4! is also a multiple of 10. So, for any n>4, the sum of any list of consecutive factorials 1!+...+n! will have a ones digit equivalent to the ones digit of 1!+2!+3!+4!. (All higher factorials will contribute nothing to the ones digit.) And 1!+2!+3!+4!=33, which of course has a ones digit of 3. So the sum of all higher factorials must also end in 3.
@@mriswith88 Thanks !
He said he "knew" that every sum of factorials 1! + 2! +3! ... ends in a 3. Therefore the remainder in question had to be a number ending in 3...and 13 was the only such choice.
How on earth he "knew" the factoid about the 3's (true for any (n>=4) is beyond me.
Turns out the last two digits are always 13 for any n>=4. For why it's true, @mriswith88 gave the perfect answer.
The stuff these kids know "by inspection" is pretty amazing!
@@marcohanig176 He had probably just done a couple of similar problems previously and had remembered the fact.
@@mriswith88 your explenation actually makes sense unlike the one in the video which seemed to be a lucky guess.
Luke always with the hand in the Head
its a permanent p'card facepalm, if a person is that smart he's perpetually omg/wtf with the human race. the price paid for being 200+ iq
Are you Lukes Father?
No, Anakin is.. Didn't you watch the movies?? Gosh!
Sorry to say but what happens here is not a proper representation of competitive mathematics. Lot of stuff done here is just practise some memory + Doing some tricks with the MCQ answer options.
Luke already saw the questions before the competition begins
Did the host do speed before the show?
Luke is acomeputer woow i wish that i have like his inteligince
Lykwise
Lukewise
Lol
@@davisonyeoguzoro9232
that host really does act like the genius mathematician kid in the high school
Hello LUKE!
It's perfect that that the duration of this video is 13:37. Luke is a LEET mathematician!
why Brian Liu here as MIT 2024 grand integrate not providing a score?
Standing affects the performance. It does for me anyway. I think better sitting.
isn't the guy from MIT Integration Bee champion for 2023 ? the one in a hoodie
No idea why youtube recommended this to me but I have to say - the format is terrible! Just give everyone 30s to solve it (they will press the correct answer so you know the time when they had it) and then let them all show the answer and assign points based on speed... So Luke had it in 3s and gets 950p, someone else had it in 15s get 500p, etc... And also, don't use examples from books they might know.. just invest some time and prepare original questions.
Its awesome that you write who won in the description so that people who wants to see an exciting competition does not have to bother watching the video. Some people call that a SPOILER but honestly it saves a lot of time. Good thinking, you must be a math genius!
His son is!
Luke is brilliant.
Luke is fast. Any one of those contestants could answer all of the questions just as easily, he just read them faster.
hes just done all the questions before
how so? I mean sure he seems to be reading hell a lot, but he didn't solve those answers he just knew the answers
@@Endrit719 he knows the answers probably because he's already solved them before and fully understands them lol, he is brilliant
@@crung he had seen them beford
I didn’t know Chuck McGill moonlighted as a moderator.
I AM NOT CRAZY! I know he memorized those answers. B after B, as if I could ever make a mistake
5:32 his face turned red
At 4:48 what was his explanation I can't hear him
it took me around 10 mind to solve the question that's answer was 720 there are 2 major cases And then further 2 cases in One of these 2 cases so we have to solve three cases that's two much .How can they solve it so fast
superior genetics.
Luke just became a Putnam fellow. Congrats man!
That dude won the MIT integration Bee 2023....
Go Brian!
"I'm sorry we ran out of time."
HOW?
Host is extremely annoying!!
the host seems like a great guy lol
I was watching the Raytheon video and Luke was there too !
So its more of a Math General Knowledge than Math solving competition?
They need a new MC
Olive Zippered Jacket of Calculations +100 To Mathematical Ability
anyone knows where i can find the answer paths to those questions? wanna know how to solve but struggle. Do they think their audience automatically knows? :D
Luke might have finished all the questions on the graduation exam in his class, while the majority of his friends were still working on the first question.
This ain't about math but memory
They were running out of time? Didn't Luke save them a bunch of time? lol
I’m as good at this stuff as I would be if I’d never gone to school, that is, not at all.
Yup. School doesn't teach you this. Private mentoring, self teaching, circles, workshops do. School math will be boring for these guys, they would have finished calculus before high school.
:Host: What is the-
Luke: I have figured an equation to get nukes.
Host: How?
Luke: 9:34
oh now I recognize you from mathcounts
Am afraid luke will be a mad man before age 30. Looks like a confuse guy. He's dammed good.
he is already
Could GPT4 answer all of these problems in 5sec nowadays?
idk about gpt4 but gpt3.5 cant even do basic multiplication so doubtful. its a language model after all
Why is Luke not wearing the same shirt as the rest of them?
He's wearing the shirt underneath the jacket
Luke also said in an interview before the competition that the winter would be very cold for him there since he is from texas
is it bad to assume that 3s into the video... the guy wearing the hoodie with his hand to his head will clearly beat all the normies?
Is Luke the real Good Will Hunting?
host took a bath in caffeine before the competition.
how on earth did i get the question with the medals right.. i havent been doin math soo long. i just crunched 7! divided by 7 in my calc out of intuition. i never learned or studied these kind of fields in math in school. was that random luck or what now hahaha
Explain me question number 4 please!!
Don't give options, they might try their luck by making mild calculated guess. Kind of gambling indeed..🤗
Is the host is nervous, his voice is freaking.
i definitely do not want to be a mathematician after watching this
Wow! why did they make him as a Host?!
Good question!
@@Ace1King1 A harder question than any of the ones on the quiz
are calculators allowed?
Is that todd Howard?
What is 2 + ....
Luke : 4
IT'S CORRECT 🎉😮
🤣
Haha host just a little NERVOUS guys, but he’s having a fun time and so am I
they are guessing simple probabilty???
What is wrong with this host.
so bad how its setup. Literally the furthest away has an disadvantage on reading.
No way, how there’s a math contest without an Indian. Lol
Luke what the heck so good
just watched luke winning mit integration bee and youtube recommended this...
Host is so bad that I'm better than him
For the one on medal count I'm getting 528 (not one of the choices)...
12*11*4
Mistake?
You split the group of 3 into 1 and 2, but there's also 4 sets of permutations where the three medals are split across 3 rows (as the centre medal), which is 4 * 12 * 4 for the other 192 permutations. I did the same thing lol.
@@Degenx2 Ahh!! You're right, I am definitely missing those cases where 3 silvers are all in the middle slots.
Except I think those only account for 4 * 12 = 48 permutations.
Then there are the ones where the two bronzes are both in the middle. For those you get another (4 choose 2) * 2 * 12 = 144
That gets us to 720!
4(3*12+12+12*11)
I did this one by partitioning the non-gold medals using integer partitions of 5.
Partition and config Count
{5} 24
{4, 1} BBSS, S 72
{3, 2} SSS, BB 108
{3, 2} BSS, SS 108
{3, 1, 1} BBS, S, S 36
{3, 1, 1} BSS, B, S 72
{3, 1, 1} SSS, B, B 36
{2, 2, 1} BB, SS, S 216
{2, 1, 1, 1} BB, S, S, S 12
{2, 1, 1, 1} SS, B, B, S 36
We have five non-gold medals to place on a 4x7 shelf that is horizontally symmetric. This gives 4 middle spots for unpaired medals and 12 outer spots for pairs. These are the only ways to fit our five medals: A) two pairs and one unpaired, or B) one pair and three unpaired.
A) 12 spots for first pair, times 11 remaining spots for second pair, times 4 middle spots for unpaired.
B) 12 spots for the pair times 16 arrangements for the middle (4 all-silver plus 4*3 mixed).
So 12*11*4+12*16 = 12*60 = 720.
i got 10/9 for Q4 why is it wrong ?
Why would it be right? The contestant explained the solution
This type of question easily done by class 11 student in India 😊
Average indian iq is 83 stfu
Terrible MC
Oh you have 0 but don't feel bad about it. You can still be mathmagicians if you want to.

Holy shit Luke
The others are just like we are living in luke world
so they just remember answers
The host needs a professional help!!Lost interest to continue watching.
Full option by heated
Sad to see no Indians in there... you know they would win the tournament in any olympiad and any competition
Stinky
@@abdulllllahhh oye bullah, better than goat small from you...
Why the interviewer speaking so fast wtf
"Don't feel bad"
Where are the Indians? It is doesn't count as a mathematic competition if there is no Indian.
Maybe some of them should qualify. Luke is a 4 time IMO gold medalist, I think this is a math competition
Too busy with spelling and chemistry bees.
too busy with learning obscure stupid tricks to pass jee advanced
never knew that you can actually screen record youtube video and post it again on youtube for views xDD
