Given a positive real number $k$. In a triangle $ABC$ the points $D, E$, and $F$ lie on sides $BC, CA$, and $AB$ respectively so that $$\frac{BD}{DC}=\frac{CE}{EA}=\frac{AF}{FB}=k$$If $[ABC]$ and $[DEF]$ represent the area of triangles $ABC$ and $DEF$, respectively, then $\frac{[ABC]}{[DEF]}=$ ... p12. For any natural number $k$, let $I_k= 10... 064$ with $k$ times $0$ between 1 and $6$. If $N(k)$ represents the number of factors of $2$ in the prime factorization of $I_k$, then the maximum value for $N(k)$ is ... p13.

Given a triangle $ABC$ with $\omega$ as the outer circle. The chord $AD$ is the bisector of the angle $BAC$ that intersects $BC$ at point $L$. The chord $DK$ is perpendicular to $AC$ and intersects $AC$ at point $M$. If $\frac{BL}{LC}=\frac{1}{2}$ then the value of $\frac{AM}{MC}=$ is..... p16. The original four-digit number $n$ is completely divided by $7$. The original number $k$, obtained by writing the n-digits from back to front, is also completely divided by $7$. In addition, it is known that $n$ and $k$ have the same remainder when divided by $37$. If $k> n$, then the sum of all $n$ that satisfy is ..... p17.
