Ms. Spice tells her class that she is thinking of a positive common fraction. The product of the numerator and denominator is 60. When she adds 1 to the numerator and divides the denominator by 2, the resulting fraction is equal to 1. What common fraction is Ms. Spice thinking of?

Working alone, a professor grades a paper every 10 minutes. The professor spends 20 minutes training an assistant. Then, working together, they grade 2 papers every 15 minutes. For how many graded papers is the amount of time it would take the professor working alone the same as the amount of time it would take the professor and her assistant working together, including the time required for training?

On a standard die with six faces, each face contains a different number from 1 through 6. Jake has a non-standard die with six faces, and each face on Jake's die contains an expression with a different value from 1 through 6. In no particular order, the six expressions are $a + 1$, $2a - 5$, $3a - 10$, $b + 8$, $2b + 5$ and $3b + 10$. If $a$ and $b$ are integers, what is the value of the product $a \times b$?

For positive integers $n$ and $m$, each exterior angle of a regular $n$-sided polygon is 45 degrees larger than each exterior angle of a regular $m$-sided polygon. One example is $n = 4$ and $m = 8$ because the measures of each exterior angle of a square and a regular octagon are 90 degrees and 45 degrees, respectively. What is the greatest of all possible values of $m$?
