Question 3

There are $4n$ pebbles of weights $1, 2, 3, \dots, 4n$. Each pebble is coloured in one of $n$ colours and there are four pebbles of each colour. Show that we can arrange the pebbles into two piles so the total weights of both piles are the same, and each pile contains two pebbles of each colour.
