1. Handley High School has exactly 1000 lockers and exactly 1000 students. On the first day of school, the students meet outside the building and agree on the following plan: The first student will enter the school and open all the lockers. The second student will enter the school and close every locker with an even number (2, 4, 6, 8, ...). The third student will then reverse every third locker. That is, if the locker is open, she will close it; if the locker is closed, she will open it. The fourth student will then reverse every fourth locker, and so on until all 1,000 students have entered the building and reversed the proper lockers. Which lockers will finally remain open?
