Equal values (Posted on 2018-10-01) Difficulty: 2 of 5
Given a positive integer n, what is the largest k such that the numbers 1,2,...,n can be put into k boxes so that the sum of the numbers in each box is the same?

[When n = 8, the example {1,2,3,6},{4,8},{5,7} shows that the largest k is at least 3.]
