NMC 2020 Problem 2

    Georg has 2n+12n + 1 cards with one number written on each card. On one card the integer 00 is written, and among the rest of the cards, the integers k=1,...,nk = 1, ... , n appear, each twice. Georg wants to place the cards in a row in such a way that the 00 -card is in the middle, and for each k=1,...,nk = 1, ... , n , the two cards with the number kk have the distance kk (meaning that there are exactly k−1k - 1 cards between them). For which 1≤n≤101 \le n \le 10 is this possible?
