77
Also
114 and 210 And the self-made 136, which rivals Klein Four Group's nerdiness (without the singing skills), but is thankfully not on YouTube 
I never found one as good as Finite Simple Group (of Order Two) though...
I wasn't going to enter this edition, but this theme makes me consider ending my break early

Well, as you have already realized, the theme has not been chosen by chance and ahead everyone will have to show their wit and use their knowledge to determine the finalists. And now, as preparation for future challenges, we suggest that all participants get themselves some bonuses for future semifinals. So... 
bonus №1
The first person to correctly solve this problem will be able to choose a semifinal number (1 or 2) for their nation!
We need to arrange the four nines so that we end up with a sum of 100.
You can use any math signs you want. Quite a simple task, you can do it quickly.

to be a function from pairs of natural numbers to {100}, mapping (n+m) to 100, then:

Okay, I'll pretend to be smart too.
Let A=({100,9},+) be a group, where 100 is the identity element. There exists only one unique group of order two (Z2), therefore A is isomorphic to Z2. Therefore, per calculations in Z2, 9+9+9+9=100

Cool theme, i guess...
Literally me in elementary and junior high school (aka the famous "fuck it, i'll just be a stripper" meme). But eventually i managed to do good at maths.

That's right!
The bonus is yours.bonus #2
The ability to choose either the first or second half of any semifinal!
You have to arrange the seven digits so that the sum total is 100.
Here you can use only one sign (+-x÷) several times. And don't peek!

A breeder bought 30 birds for the nursery for 30 coins. The partridges cost 3 coins each, the pigeons 2 coins each, and a pair of sparrows 1 coins each. How many birds of each species were purchased?

There are multiple solutions if some birds have 0 pieces. But the most important thing is don't buy, adopt.

A tennis racket and a ball together cost 1 dollar and 10 cents. The racket is more expensive than the ball by 1 dollar. How much is the ball worth?

Yay, first half please!
I was actually pleased that you did that particular question at a different time of the day. Justice for those of us in strange time zones!!
