There are $n$ positive integers on the board. We can add only positive integers $c=\frac{a+b}{a-b}$, where $a$ and $b$ are numbers already writted on the board. $a)$ Find minimal value of $n$, such that with adding numbers with described method, we can get any positive integer number written on the board $b)$ For such $n$, find numbers written on the board at the beginning
