    :|~ Maths Problem (RESOLVED)

    Bob writes down 6 consecutive positive integers and splits them up into two groups. For each group, he finds the sum and then finds the difference of these two new numbers. What is the smallest non-negative number he can get?

    i think the answer is 1, it may be 0

    But who can help me prove it?
