29. The Fibonacci numbers are

F1 = 1, F2 = 1, F3 = 2, F4 = 3, F5 = 5, F6 = 8, F7 = 13, . . .

where the first two are both equal to 1, and from then on, each
one is the sum of the two preceding it. Of the first 2004 Fibonacci
numbers, how many have 2 as their last digit?

30. Lois and Ben are playing a game with red, yellow, green and blue
counters. They are making as long a line as possible while obeying
the following two rules:-
(1) No two adjacent counters can be the same colour.
(2) If, in the sequence, any colour occurs twice, no colour
between them can occur elsewhere.
Thus rygbgg would be banned by only the first rule, and rbgygbrg
would be banned by only the second rule.
Lois has started her line with ryr and Ben has started his with ryg.
Which of the following statements is true?

(A) It is possible for Lois to make a longer sequence than Ben can
make.
(B) It is possible for Ben to make a longer sequence than Lois can
make.
(C) It is possible for both to make sequences of length 6, but no
longer.
(D) It is possible for both to make sequences of length 7, but no
longer.
(E) There is no limit on the length of the sequence either can
make.
