On the football field, there are 11 footballers, having jersey numbers from 1 to 11.
You will divide these football players into groups such that the sums of the jersey numbers of the footballers in all groups will be the same. In how many distict ways can this be done?
If the question was asked for 7 footballers the answer would be 5:
(1-2-4-7, 3-5-6), (1-2-5-6, 3-4-7), (1-3-4-6, 2-5-7), (1-6-7, 2-3-4-5), (1-6, 2-5, 3-4, 7)
