Problem 6
A number is called Tamata Number if it stays the same when the number is written in reverse order.For example, $121$ is a Tamata Number because,we get $121$, if $121$ is written in reverse order.Now what is the minimum G.C.D. (Greatest Common Divisor) of two four digit Tamata Number?

Problem 7

The floor of a museum is shaped like a simple polygon where the sides of the polygon have no points of intrsection except the adjacent sides.The walls of the museum are along the sides of the polygon.Guards have to be employed to guard the valuable things in the museum.Every guard can cover up the infinity around him but if there is a wall,he cannot watch beyond the wall.If the number of sides of the polygon is $n$,then prove that it is possible to guard the museum completely with minimum $\lfloor x/3\rfloor$ .[ $\lfloor x\rfloor$ is the biggest integer which is not bigger then $x$]?

Problem 7:
Aasma is a mathematician and devised an algorithm to find a husband. The strategy is:

$\circ$ Start interviewing a maximum of $1000$ prospective husbands. Assign a ranking $r$ to each person that is a positive integer. No two prospects will have same the rank $r$.
$\circ$ Reject the first $k$ men and let $H$ be highest rank of these $k$ men.
$\circ$ After rejecting the first $k$ men, select the next prospect with a rank greater than $H$ and then stop the search immediately. If no candidate is selected after $999$ interviews, the $1000^{th}$ person is selected.

Aasma wants to find the value of $k$ for which she has the highest probability of choosing the highest ranking prospect among all $1000$ candidates without having to interview all $1000$ prospects.

(a) What is the probability that the highest ranking prospect among all $1000$ prospects is the $(m + 1)^{th}$ prospect?

(b) Assume the highest ranking prospect is the $(m + 1)^{th}$ person to be interviewed. What is the probability that the highest rank candidate among the first $m$ candidates is one of the first $k$ candidates who were rejected?

(c) What is the probability that the prospect with the highest rank is the $(m+1)^{th}$ person and that Aasma will choose the $(m+1)^{th}$ boy using this algorithm?

(d) The total probability that Aasma will choose the highest ranking prospect among the $1000$ prospects is the sum of the probability for each possible value of $m+1$ with $m+1$ ranging between $k+1$ and $1000$. Find the sum. To simplify your answer use the formula
ln $N$ $\approx \frac{1}{N-1} + \frac{1}{N-2} +........+ \frac{1}{2} +\frac{1}{1}$

(e) Find that value of $k$ that maximizes the probability of choosing the highest ranking prospect without interviewing all $1000$ candidates. You may need to know that the maximum of the function $x$ ln $\frac{A}{x-1}$ is approximately $\frac{A+1}{e}$, where $A$ is a constant and $e$ is Euler's number, $e = 2.718....$.
