Suppose there are $n$ distinct points on plane. There is circle with radius $r$ and center $O$ on the plane. At least one of the points are in the circle. We do the following instructions. At each step we move $O$ to the baricenter of the point in the circle. Prove that location of $O$ is constant after some steps.
