I am in a really badly taught and administered summer course :grumpy:
We never get solutions to exams or explanations of our mistakes. So, here is this problem that bothers me, still don't know how to do it:
Prove that in sequence of 15 positive integers (not including zero) that are not necessarily consequitive and not necessarily unique which sum up to 24 there is a sequence of numbers summing up to 5.
I am not even sure if I understood the question right, but is it THAT trivial? I mean, you can have all itegers = 1 and there is a sequence of 5 one's, but that even does not add up to 24.
Anyway... someone help, please
