RMO 2024 Problem 1

    Let n>1n>1 be a positive integer. Call a rearrangement a1,a2,⋯ ,ana_1,a_2, \cdots , a_n of 1,2,⋯ ,n1,2, \cdots , n nice if for every k=2,3,⋯ ,nk = 2,3, \cdots , n , we have that a1+a2+⋯+aka_1 + a_2 + \cdots + a_k is not divisible by kk . (a) If n>1n>1 is odd, prove that there is no nice arrangement of 1,2,⋯ ,n1,2, \cdots , n . (b) If nn is even, find a nice arrangement of 1,2,⋯ ,n1,2, \cdots , n .
