From Abstract Algebra with Applications by K. Splinder, Vol.1, page 192, Dekker (1994): Snow White distributed 21 liters of milk among the seven dwarfs. The first dwarf then distributed the contents of his pail evenly to the pails of other six dwarfs. Then the second did the same, and so on. After the seventh dwarf distributed the contents of his pail evenly to the other six dwarfs, it was found that each dwarf had exactly as much milk in his pail as at the start. What was the initial distribution ofthe milk?
