+Once, six children were in a round table. Master Brăwied asked them a question: "How many people are you?"
+While five children were still counting, one child called out: "Sixty-three! Specifically, 6 individuals, 15 teams of two, 20 teams of 3, 15 teams of 4, 6 teams of 5, and one team of 6."
+Then Master Brăwied asked: "Well then, how many people will be there if another person joins the group?"
+The child replied: "Isn't that obvious, Master? We'll have all of the old teams, as well as another set of teams with the new person!"
+The Master praised the child, saying, "This child has wisdom and understanding indeed."
