Minimum Operations to Make Array Equal II(LeetCode 2541):

Problem

You are given two integer arrays nums1 and nums2 of equal length n and an integer k. You can perform the following operation on nums1:

  • Choose two indexes i and j and increment nums1[i] by k and decrement nums1[j] by k. In other words, nums1[i] = nums1[i] + k and nums1[j] = nums1[j] - k.

nums1 is said to be equal to nums2 if for all indices i such that 0 <= i < n, nums1[i] == nums2[i].

Return the minimum number of operations required to make nums1 equal to nums2. If it is impossible to make them equal, return -1.

 

Example 1:

Input: nums1 = [4,3,1,4], nums2 = [1,3,7,1], k = 3
Output: 2
Explanation: In 2 operations, we can transform nums1 to nums2.
1st operation: i = 2, j = 0. After applying the operation, nums1 = [1,3,4,4].
2nd operation: i = 2, j = 3. After applying the operation, nums1 = [1,3,7,1].
One can prove that it is impossible to make arrays equal in fewer operations.

Example 2:

Input: nums1 = [3,8,5,2], nums2 = [2,4,1,6], k = 1
Output: -1
Explanation: It can be proved that it is impossible to make the two arrays equal.

 

Constraints:

  • n == nums1.length == nums2.length
  • 2 <= n <= 105
  • 0 <= nums1[i], nums2[j] <= 109
  • 0 <= k <= 105
