This approach involves counting the frequency of each card number. Once we have the frequencies, the problem reduces to checking if there exists a number x greater than 1 that divides all these frequencies. This is efficiently achieved by calculating the GCD of the list of frequencies.
Time Complexity: O(n + m log m), where n is the length of the deck and m is the number of unique numbers.
Space Complexity: O(m), where m is the number of unique numbers due to the frequency array.

32}This Java solution applies a similar strategy: it uses a HashMap for counting, then checks the GCD of the counts. The necessary calculations follow after considering all unique counts.
This approach also involves counting the frequency of each card in the deck. However, rather than immediately calculating the GCD, it sorts the frequency list and iteratively checks for the smallest divisor of these frequencies greater than 1.
Time Complexity: O(n + m√n), where n is the number of cards and m is the number of unique cards.
Space Complexity: O(m) for the frequency array.

}In C#, the function calculates frequencies via a dictionary, examines each factor from 2 to the minimum frequency, and returns true if such a size is feasible.
