AMC10数学竞赛是美国高中数学竞赛中的一项，是针对高中一年级及初中三年级学生的数学测试，该竞赛开始于2000年，分A赛和B赛，于每年的2月初和2月中举行，学生可任选参加一项即可。不管是对高校申请还是今后在数学领域的发展都极其有利！那么接下来跟随小编来看一下AMC10数学竞赛真题以及官方解答吧：

Problem 25

Last year Isabella took $7$ math tests and received $7$ different scores, each an integer between $91$ and $100$ , inclusive. After each test she noticed that the average of her test scores was an integer. Her score on the seventh test was $95$ . What was her score on the sixth test?

$amc数学竞赛$

Solution 1

Let the sum of the scores of Isabella's first $6$ tests be $S$ . Since the mean of her first $7$ scores is an integer, then $S + 95 \equiv 0 \text{ (mod 7)}$ , or $S \equiv3 \text{ (mod 7)}$ . Also, $S \equiv 0 \text{ (mod 6)}$ , so by CRT, $S \equiv 24 \text{ (mod 42)}$ . We also know that $91 \cdot 6 \leq S \leq 100 \cdot 6$ , so by inspection, $S = 570$ . However, we also have that the mean of the first $5$ integers must be an integer, so the sum of the first $5$ test scores must be an multiple of $5$ , which implies that the $6$ th test score is $amc真题$ .

Solution 2

First, we find the largest sum of scores which is $100+99+98+97+96+95+94$ which equals $7(97)$ . Then we find the smallest sum of scores which is $91+92+93+94+95+96+97$ which is $7(94)$ . So the possible sums for the 7 test scores so that they provide an integer average are $7(97), 7(96), 7(95)$ and $7(94)$ which are $679, 672, 665,$ and $658$ respectively. Now in order to get the sum of the first 6 tests, we negate $95$ from each sum producing $584, 577, 570,$ and $563$ . Notice only $570$ is divisible by $6$ so, therefore, the sum of the first $6$ tests is $570$ . We need to find her score on the $6th$ test so what number minus $570$ will give us a number divisible by $5$ . Since $95$ is the $7th$ test score and all test scores are distinct that only leaves $美国数学竞赛$ .

Solution 3 (Lucky Solution)

By inspection, the sequences $91,93,92,96,98,100,95$ and $93,91,92,96,98,100,95$ work, so the answer is $amc 真题$ . Note: A method of finding this "cheap" solution is to create a "mod chart", basically list out the residues of 91-100 modulo 1-7 and then finding the two sequences should be made substantially easier.

Solution 4

Since all of the scores are from $91 - 100$ , we can 'subtract' 90 off from all of the scores. Basically, we're looking at the units digits except for 100; we're looking at 10 in this case. Since the last score was a 95, the sum of the scores from the first six tests must be $2 \mod 7$ and $0 \mod 6$ . Trying out a few cases, the only solution possible is 30 (this is from adding numbers 1-10). The sixth test score must be $0 \mod 5$ because $30\equiv 0\mod5$ . The only possible test scores are $95$ and $100$ , so the answer is $amc竞赛$ .
