SMO 2002 Problem 3

Let $n$ be a positive integer. Determine the smallest value of the sum $a_1b_1+a_2b_2+...+a_{2n+2}b_{2n+2}$ where $(a_1,a_2,...,a_{2n+2})$ and $(b_1,b_2,...,b_{2n+2})$ are rearrangements of the binomial coefficients $2n+1 \choose 0$ , $2n+1 \choose 1$ ,..., $2n+1 \choose 2n+1$ . Justify your answer
