Carlson and Baby have several jars of jam, each weighing an integer number of pounds.

The total weight of all Carlson's jars of jam is 13 times the total weight of all Baby's jars. Carlson gave Baby the jar with the smallest weight (among those he had), after which the total weight of his jars turned out to be 8 times the total weight of Baby's jars.
