【Suggested Solution】
Observe that the crawling path of the ant goes through the “O-A-B-C-O-D-E-F-O”
repeating cycle and the total length of each cycle is 2 8 = 16 cm. Since
2020 = 16 126 + 4 and 4 = 2 2 , the ant will eventually end up at the second point
after the start of the loop, which is point B. Therefore, our answer is(A).

21. In a park, there is a viewing trail that was paved with
identical regular pentagonal stone bricks such that one …
side of a brick is connected to one side of another
brick, as shown in the diagram. The gardener plans to …
make fences to each side of these stone bricks that are
not in contact with the other stone bricks with a
wooden board. If a total of 2021 wooden boards are
needed to pave this trail, how many stone bricks are
used?
【Suggested Solution 1】
According to the conditions of the problem, we can easily see that for both ends,
which are the first and last stone bricks, we need to use 4 wooden boards each, while
for the rest of the bricks, we need to use 3 wooden boards each. So, there are a total
2021 − 4 − 4
of + 2 = 671 + 2 = 673 stone bricks used.

【Suggested Solution 2】
Observe that the first and last stone bricks will require one more wooden board,
compared to the other bricks, which requires 3 wooden boards per brick. So, there are
2021 − 2
a total of = 673 stone bricks used.

22. A school conducted a survey to all of its 216 students in the fifth grade. The
results were as follows: 100 does not like to read comic books, 85 does not like
to read novels and 33 does not like to read both comic books and novels. How
many students like to read both comic books and novels?
【Suggested Solution】
From the conditions, the number of students who does not like to read both comic
books and novels is 100 + 85 − 33 = 152 . Therefore, the number of students who like
to read both is 216 − 152 = 64 .

b 28 d
【Suggested Solution】
Adding the five equations, we get
60 + 56 + 40 + 34 + 30
a+b+c+d +e= = 110 .
2
So,
a = ( a + b + c + d + e) − (e + c ) − (d + b) = 110 − 34 − 56 = 20
b = ( a + b + c + d + e) − (e + c ) − (a + d ) = 110 − 34 − 60 = 16
Therefore, the sum of a and b is 20 + 16 = 36 .

【Suggested Solution】
A E G B
Label the points as shown in the figure on the right. By
adding auxiliary lines EG and FH, it can be seen that the
perimeter of the shaded area is just equal to the sum of
the perimeter of rectangle ABCD, the two line segments Q M
EF and GH having side length of 20 cm and the two line
segments MN and PQ having side length of 4 cm. P N
Therefore, the perimeter of the shaded area is:
(16 + 20) 2 + 20 + 20 − 4 − 4 = 104 cm.

25. Grace wants to buy a total of 10 puppets, which have four kinds namely: Octopus,
Mouse, Rhino and Dog puppet using the $700 that she has. The unit prices of
these four puppets are $30, $50, $70 and $110, respectively. If she must buy at
least one type of each puppet, how many different purchase combinations are
there in total?
【Suggested Solution 1】
Since Grace has to buy at least one of kind of each puppet and she must buy a total of
exactly 10 puppets, then according to the principle of parity, the number of purchases
of these four kinds of puppets has the following three cases namely:
⚫ Four odd numbers: (1, 1, 1, 7), (1, 1, 3, 5) and (1, 3, 3, 3)
⚫ Two odd and two even: (1, 1, 2, 6), (1, 1, 4, 4), (1, 2, 2, 5), (1, 2, 3, 4) and (2, 2, 3, 3)
⚫ Four even numbers:(2, 2, 2, 4)
For convenience of our calculations below, note that 700 − (30 + 50 + 70 + 110) = 440
and 700 − 2 (30 + 50 + 70 + 110) = 180 .
(i) If the number of units purchased of these four puppets is of the combination
(1, 1, 1, 7) then 6a = 440 , so a = 30 , 50, 70 or 110. But since 440 is not a
multiple of 6, then there are no solutions.
(ii) If the number of units purchased of these four puppets is of the combination
(1, 1, 3, 5) then 2a + 4b = 440 and simplifying, we get a + 2b = 220 . So, the
values of a and b are two different numbers among 30, 50, 70, and 110. Since
220 − a a a
b= = 110 − , therefore the units digit of must be 5, this implies
2 2 2
that the units digit of b must be 5 as well, thus, there are no solutions.
(iii) If the number of units purchased of these four puppets is of the combination
(1, 3, 3, 3) then 2a + 2b + 2c = 440 and simplifying, we get a + b + c = 220 .
So, the values of a, b and c are three different values among 30, 50, 70, and
110. At this point, it is known from 30 + 50 + 70 + 110 = 260 and that the
values of a, b and c is 260 − 220 = 40 , therefore, there are no solutions.
(iv) If the number of units purchased of these four puppets is of the combination
(1, 1, 2, 6) then a + 5b = 440 . So, the values of a and b are two different
440 − a a
numbers among 30, 50, 70, and 110. Since b = = 88 − , therefore it’s
5 5
a
units digit must be 0, but since the units digit of is 8, then it will take
5
values a = 40 , 90, 140, …, thus, there are no solutions.
(v) If the number of units purchased of these four puppets is of the combination
(1, 1, 4, 4) then 3a + 3b = 440 . So, the values of a and b are two different
numbers among 30, 50, 70, and 110. But since 440 is not divisible by 3, there
are no solutions.
(vi) If the number of units purchased of these four puppets is of the combination
(1, 2, 2, 5) then a + b + 4c = 440 , so, the values of a, b and c are three different
values among 30, 50, 70, and 110.
440 − (a + b) ( a + b)
Notice that c = = 110 − so we know that c 110 .
4 4
If c = 30 ,then a + b = 320 , there are no solutions.
If c = 50 , then a + b = 240 , there are no solutions.
If c = 70 , then a + b = 160 , one number takes 50 and another takes 110, thus, we
have our first purchase combination:
Octopus Mouse Rhino Dog
($30) ($50) ($70) ($110)
Solution 1 1 2 5 2
(vii) If the number of units purchased of these four puppets is of the combination
(1, 2, 3, 4) then the values of a, b and c are three different values among 30, 50,
70, and 110.
If c = 30 , then a + 2b = 350 , there are no solutions.
If c = 50 , then a + 2b = 290 , so b = 110 and a = 70 thus, we have our second
purchase combination:
Octopus Mouse Rhino Dog
($30) ($50) ($70) ($110)
Solution 2 1 4 2 3
If c = 70 , then a + 2b = 230 , there are no solutions.
If c = 110 , then a + 2b = 110 , so b = 30 and a = 50 , a = 70 thus, we have our
third purchase combination:
Octopus Mouse Rhino Dog
($30) ($50) ($70) ($110)
Solution 3 3 2 1 4
(viii) If the number of units purchased of these four puppets is of the combination
(2, 2, 3, 3) then a + b = 180 . So, the values of a and b are two different
numbers among 30, 50, 70, and 110. Let one number be 70 and another be 100,
thus, we have our fourth purchase combination:
Octopus Mouse Rhino Dog
($30) ($50) ($70) ($110)
Solution 4 2 2 3 3
(ix) If the number of units purchased of these four puppets is of the combination
(2, 2, 2, 4), then 3a = 180 and a = 60 . Since a can only take values among 30,
50, 70, and 110, thus, there are no solutions.
In summary, there are 4 purchase combinations:
Octopus Mouse Rhino Dog
($30) ($50) ($70) ($110)
Solution 1 1 2 5 2
Solution 2 1 4 2 3
Solution 3 3 2 1 4
Solution 4 2 2 3 3
【Suggested Solution 2】
Let a be the number of Octopus puppets bought, b be the number of Mouse puppets
bought, c be the number of Rhino puppets bought and d be the number of Dog
puppets bought, where 1 a 9 , 1 b 9 , 1 c 9 and 1 d 9 .
Using the conditions, we have the following equations:
a + b + c + d = 10 a + b + c + d = 10 (1)
30a + 50b + 70c + 110d = 700 3a + 5b + 7c + 11d = 70
(2)
And from (2) − (1) 3 , we get 2b + 4c + 8d = 40 , which yields b + 2c + 4d = 20 .
⚫ If d = 5 , then b = c = 0 , there are no solutions.
⚫ If d = 4 , then b + 2c = 4,Since b must be even, then b = 2,which implies c = 1
and a = 10 − 4 − 2 − 1 = 3 . So, we have our first solution which is (a, b, c, d) =
(3, 2, 1, 4).
⚫ If d = 3 , then b + 2c = 8 and since b must be even:
When b = 2 , then c = 3 and a = 10 − 3 − 2 − 3 = 2 . So, we have our second
solution which is (a, b, c, d) = (2, 2, 3, 3).
When b = 4 , then c = 2 and a = 10 − 3 − 4 − 2 = 1 . So, we have our third
solution which is (a, b, c, d) = (1, 4, 2, 3).
When b = 6 , then c = 1 and a = 10 − 3 − 6 − 1 = 0 , which is a contradiction.
⚫ If d = 2 , then b + 2c = 12 and since b must be even:
When b = 2 , then c = 5 and a = 10 − 2 − 2 − 5 = 1. So, we have our fourth
solution which is (a, b, c, d) = (1, 2, 5, 2).
When b = 4 , then c = 4 and a = 10 − 2 − 4 − 4 = 0 , which is a contradiction.
When b = 6 , then c = 3 and b + c + d = 2 + 6 + 3 = 11 10 , which is a
contradiction.
When b = 8 , then c = 2 and b + c = 10 , which is a contradiction.
