More than twenty-five years ago, Manickam, Miklos, and Singhi conjectured that for positive
integers $ n, k $ with $ n\geq 4k $, every set of $ n $ real numbers with nonnegative sum has
at least $\binom {n-1}{k-1} $$ k $-element subsets whose sum is also nonnegative. We verify
this conjecture when $ n\geq 8k^ 2$, which simultaneously improves and simplifies a bound
of Alon, Huang, and Sudakov and also a bound of Pokrovskiy when $ k< 10^{45} $.
