Let $n>2$ be a positive integer. Masha writes down $n$ natural numbers along a circle. Next, Taya performs the following operation: Between any two adjacent numbers $a$ and $b$, she writes a divisor of the number $a+b$ greater than $1$, then Taya erases the original numbers and obtains a new set of $n$ numbers along the circle. Can Taya always perform these operations in such a way that after some number of operations, all the numbers are equal? [i]Proposed by T. Korotchenko[/i]

A sequence of pairwise distinct positive integers is called averaging if each term after the first two is the average of the previous two terms. Let $M$ be the maximum possible number of terms in an averaging sequence in which every term is less than or equal to $2022$ and let $N$ be the number of such distinct sequences (every term less than or equal to $2022$) with exactly $M$ terms.
