    Let 0≤k≤n\le k \le n and m≥m \ge2 be integers. Consider the kk-element subsets of {1,2,…,n}\{1,2,\ldots,n\}; in every such subset, compute the residue of the sum of elements, modulo mm. Prove that if the mm residues are distributed uniformly - i.e. every residue occurs exactly (nk)m\frac{\binom{n}{k}}{m} times - then n≥mn \ge m.
