Paper sheets of standard sizes: an expected-value problem.
Solution:

Problem 152
Writing 1/2 as a sum of inverse squares
Note that if p is an odd prime, the sum of inverse squares of all terms divisible by p must have reduced denominator not divisible by p.
Solution:

subsets _ = [[]]

-- when added to x, does not contain a factor of p
pfree s x p = [(y, t) | t <- subsets s, let y = x + sumInvSq t,
denominator y `mod` p /= 0]
-- Verify that we need not consider terms divisible by 11, or by any
-- prime greater than 13. Nor need we consider any term divisible
-- by 25, 27, 32, or 49.

Problem 160
Factorial trailing digits
We use the following two facts:
Fact 1: (2^(d + 4*5^(d-1)) - 2^d) `mod` 10^d == 0
Fact 2: product [n | n <- [0..10^d], gcd n 10 == 1] `mod` 10^d == 1
We really only need these two facts for the special case of
d == 5
, and we can verify that directly by
evaluating the above two Haskell expressions.
More generally:
Fact 1 follows from the fact that the group of invertible elements
of the ring of integers modulo 5^d
has
4*5^(d-1)
elements.
Fact 2 follows from the fact that the group of invertible elements
of the ring of integers modulo 10^d
is isomorphic to the product
of a cyclic group of order 2 and another cyclic group.
