Prove For all integers n if n2 0mod 3 then n 0mod 3Solutionn
Prove: For all integers n, if n2 0(mod 3), then n 0(mod 3).
Solution
n^2=0 mod 3
HEnce , n^2=3k for some intger k
Hence, 3|n^2
Assume, 3 does not divide n
So, 3 is not present in prime factorisation of n
HEnce, 3 is not present in prime factorisation of n^2
But,3|n^2. So a contradiction.
Hence, 3|n
