Theo Travel, who has

5

children, has already visited

8

countries of the eurozone. From every country, he brought

5

not necessarily distinct coins home. Moreover, among these

40

coins there are exactly

5

of every value (

1,2,5,10,20,

and

50

ct,

1

and

2

euro). He wants to give each child

8

coins such that they are from different countries and that each child gets the same amount of money. Is this always possible?
