AMC10 2016 A · Q14. It mainly tests Basic counting (rules of product/sum), Diophantine equations (integer solutions).
How many ways are there to write $2016$ as the sum of twos and threes, ignoring order? (For example, $1008\cdot 2+0\cdot 3$ and $402\cdot 2+404\cdot 3$ are two such ways.)
有多少种方法可以把 $2016$ 写成若干个 $2$ 和若干个 $3$ 的和(不考虑顺序)?(例如,$1008\cdot 2+0\cdot 3$ 和 $402\cdot 2+404\cdot 3$ 就是两种这样的表示。)

Answer
Correct choice: (C)
正确答案:(C)
Solution
Answer (C): If the sum uses $n$ twos and $m$ threes, then $2n+3m=2016$. Therefore $n=\frac{2016-3m}{2}$. Both $m$ and $n$ will be nonnegative integers if and only if $m$ is an even integer from $0$ to $672$. Thus there are $\frac{672}{2}+1=337$ ways to form the sum.
答案(C):如果这个和使用了 $n$ 个 2 和 $m$ 个 3,则有 $2n+3m=2016$。因此 $n=\frac{2016-3m}{2}$。当且仅当 $m$ 是从 $0$ 到 $672$ 的偶整数时,$m$ 和 $n$ 都是非负整数。因此共有 $\frac{672}{2}+1=337$ 种方式构成该和。
