Hello all,
This is from OG Review 12ed -- DS -- Problem 128. (Page 284)
A school administrator will assign each student in
a group of n students to one of m classrooms. If
3 < m < 13 < n, is it possible to assign each of the
n students to one of the m classrooms so that each
classroom has the same number of students assigned
to it?
(1) It is possible to assign each of 3n students to
one of m classrooms so that each classroom
has the same number of students assigned to it.
(2) It is possible to assign each of 13n students to
one of m classrooms so that each classroom
has the same number of students assigned to it.
I looked at the answer but I couldn't understand it enough to be able to solve it myself the next time I looked at something like this. Can someone please help in solving/simplifying it so that I can get the "concept" to be able to do it myself?
Thank you.
