Q

Show that among any group of five integers there are two with the same remainder when divided by 4

A

Since there are only 4 outcomes when divided by 4 {0,1,2,3} and there are 5 numbers, it must be the case via the pigeonhole principle that two have the same remainder

Q

Show that any group of d+1 integers there are two with exactly the same remainder when they are divided by d

A

The possible remainders when divided by d are {0,1,2,…,d-1} which are d in total. since we check d+1 options it must be the case that two have the same remainder via the pigeonhole principle

Q

Given a set of 5 distinct integer coordinates on the xy plane, show that the midpoint of the line joining at least one pair of these points has an integer coordinate

A

There are only 4 types of points that can occur {(even, odd),(even,even),(odd,odd),(odd,even)}. As we can see that the mid pint on any two of the same would be integers. Via the pigeonhole principle it must be the case that we have a midpoint that lies on integers
