Problem 2
Each new term in the Fibonacci sequence is generated by adding the previous two terms. By starting with 1 and 2, the first 10 terms will be:
1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, ...
By considering the terms in the Fibonacci sequence whose values do not exceed four million, find the sum of the even-valued terms.

Problem 12
The sequence of triangle numbers is generated by adding the natural numbers. So the 7th triangle number >would be 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 = 28. The first ten terms would be:
1, 3, 6, 10, 15, 21, 28, 36, 45, 55, ...
Let us list the factors of the first seven triangle numbers:
1: 1 3: 1,3 6: 1,2,3,6 10: 1,2,5,10 15: 1,3,5,15 21: 1,3,7,21 28: 1,2,4,7,14,28
We can see that 28 is the first triangle number to have over five divisors.
What is the value of the first triangle number to have over five hundred divisors?

Problem 14
The following iterative sequence is defined for the set of positive integers:
n → n/2 (n is even) n → 3n + 1 (n is odd)
Using the rule above and starting with 13, we generate the following sequence:
13 → 40 → 20 → 10 → 5 → 16 → 8 → 4 → 2 → 1
It can be seen that this sequence (starting at 13 and finishing at 1) contains 10 terms. Although it has not been proved yet (Collatz Problem), it is thought that all starting numbers finish at 1.
Which starting number, under one million, produces the longest chain?

For example, the proper divisors of 220 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 11, 20, 22, 44, 55 and 110; therefore d(220) = 284. The proper divisors of 284 are 1, 2, 4, 71 and 142; so d(284) = 220.

For example, when the list is sorted into alphabetical order, COLIN, which is worth 3 + 15 + 12 + 9 + 14 = 53, is the 938th name in the list. So, COLIN would obtain a score of 938 × 53 = 49714.

Problem 23
A perfect number is a number for which the sum of its proper divisors is exactly equal to the number. For example, the sum of the proper divisors of 28 would be 1 + 2 + 4 + 7 + 14 = 28, which means that 28 is a perfect number.
A number n is called deficient if the sum of its proper divisors is less than n and it is called abundant if this sum exceeds n.
As 12 is the smallest abundant number, 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 6 = 16, the smallest number that can be written as the sum of two abundant numbers is 24. By mathematical analysis, it can be shown that all integers greater than 28123 can be written as the sum of two abundant numbers. However, this upper limit cannot be reduced any further by analysis even though it is known that the greatest number that cannot be expressed as the sum of two abundant numbers is less than this limit.
Find the sum of all the positive integers which cannot be written as the sum of two abundant numbers.

Problem 24
A permutation is an ordered arrangement of objects. For example, 3124 is one possible permutation of the digits 1, 2, 3 and 4. If all of the permutations are listed numerically or alphabetically, we call it lexicographic order. The lexicographic permutations of 0, 1 and 2 are:
012 021 102 120 201 210
What is the millionth lexicographic permutation of the digits 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9?

Problem 25
The Fibonacci sequence is defined by the recurrence relation:
F_n = F_{n−1} + F_{n−2} , whereF_1 = 1 andF_2 = 1 . Hence the first 12 terms will be:
F_1 = 1 F_2 = 1 F_3 = 2 F_4 = 3 F_5 = 5 F_6 = 8 F_7 = 13 F_8 = 21 F_9 = 34 F_{10} = 55 F_{11} = 89 F_{12} = 144 The 12th term,F_{12} , is the first term to contain three digits.
What is the index of the first term in the Fibonacci sequence to contain 1000 digits?

Problem 26
A unit fraction contains 1 in the numerator. The decimal representation of the unit fractions with denominators 2 to 10 are given:
1/2 = 0.5 1/3 = 0.(3) 1/4 = 0.25 1/5 = 0.2 1/6 = 0.1(6) 1/7 = 0.(142857) 1/8 = 0.125 1/9 = 0.(1) 1/10 = 0.1 Where 0.1(6) means 0.166666..., and has a 1-digit recurring cycle. It can be seen that 1/7 has a 6-digit recurring cycle.
Find the value of d < 1000 for which 1/d contains the longest recurring cycle in its decimal fraction part.

Problem 27
Euler discovered the remarkable quadratic formula:
n^2+n+41 It turns out that the formula will produce 40 primes for the consecutive integer values0≤n≤39 . However, whenn=40,40^2+40+41=40(40+1)+41 is divisible by41 , and certainly whenn=41,41^2+41+41 is clearly divisible by41 .
The incredible formula
n^2−79n+1601 was discovered, which produces80 primes for the consecutive values0≤n≤79 . The product of the coefficients,−79 and1601 , is−126479 .
Considering quadratics of the form:
n^2+an+b , where|a|<1000 and|b|≤1000
where
|n| is the modulus/absolute value ofn e.g.|11|=11 and|−4|=4 Find the product of the coefficients,a andb , for the quadratic expression that produces the maximum number of primes for consecutive values ofn , starting withn=0 .
