Problem
Five distinct integers from 
to 
are chosen, and five distinct integers from 
to 
are chosen. No two numbers differ by exactly . What is the sum of the ten chosen numbers?
Solution
Note that for no two numbers to differ by , every number chosen must have a different units digit. To make computations easier, we can choose 
from the first group and 
from the second group. Then the sum evaluates to 
.
