Tim had more hazelnuts than Tom. If Tim gave Tom as many hazelnuts as Tom already had, Tim and Tom would have the same number of hazelnuts. Instead, Tim gave Tom only a few hazelnuts (no more than five) and divided his remaining hazelnuts equally between \(3\) squirrels. How many hazelnuts did Tim give to Tom?

Show that if numbers \(a-b\) and \(c-d\) are divisible by \(11\), then \(ac-bd\) and \(ad - bc\) are also both divisible by \(11\).

For how many pairs of numbers \(x\) and \(y\) between \(1\) and \(100\) is the expression \(x^2 + y^2\) divisible by \(7\)?

Seven robbers are dividing a bag of coins of various denominations. It turned out that the sum could not be divided equally between them, but if any coin is set aside, the rest could be divided so that every robber would get an equal part. Prove that the bag cannot contain \(100\) coins.

There are \(n\) integers. Prove that among them either there are several numbers whose sum is divisible by \(n\) or there is one number divisible by \(n\) itself.

Is it possible to arrange the numbers 1, 2, ..., 60 in a circle in such an order that the sum of every two numbers, between which lies one number, is divisible by 2, the sum of every two numbers between which lie two numbers, is divisible by 3, the sum of every two numbers between which lie six numbers, is divisible by 7?
