JMO 1992 Problem 5

    Suppose that n≥2n\geq 2 be integer and a1, a2, a3, a4a_1,\ a_2,\ a_3,\ a_4 satisfy the following condition:

    i)  n\ n and ai (i=1, 2, 3, 4)a_i\ (i = 1,\ 2,\ 3,\ 4) are relatively prime.

    ii)  (ka1)n+(ka2)n+(ka3)n+(ka4)n=2n\ (ka_1)_n + (ka_2)_n + (ka_3)_n + (ka_4)_n = 2n for k=1, 2, ⋯ , n−1k = 1,\ 2,\ \cdots ,\ n - 1.

    Note that (a)n(a)_n expresses the divisor when aa is divided by nn.

    Prove that (a1)n, (a2)n, (a3)n, (a4)n(a_1)_n,\ (a_2)_n,\ (a_3)_n,\ (a_4)_n can be divided into two pair with sum nn.
