## Question of the Day #17

This is a pretty cool and interesting question from AMC.

There are four lifts in a building. Each makes three stops, which do not have to be on consecutive floors on include the ground floor. For any two floors, there is at least one lift which stops on both of them. What is the maximum number of floors that this building can have?

(A) 4
(B) 5
(C) 6
(D) 7
(E) 12

## Question of the Day #16

The positive integers $x$ and $y$ satisfy

$3x^2 -8y^2 +3x^2 y^2 = 2008$

What is the value of $xy$?

## Arithmetic Problem #7

I came across this interesting algebra/ arithmetic problem the other day.

$(1 \times 2 \times 3) + 2 = 8 = 2^3$
$(2 \times 3 \times 4) + 3 = 27 = 3^3$
$(3 \times 4 \times 5) + 4 = 64 = 4^3$

Do you think this will always work?

Hint: We can use algebra to prove this cool sequence easily.
