Prove that ababat for every t is element of integerSolutionP
Prove that (a,b)=(a,b+at) for every t is element of integer.
Solution
PROOF : We know that
For every pair of whole numbers a and b there are two integers s and t such that as + bt = gcd(a, b).
also if we take s as a prime number then the above result becomes a+bt = gcd(a,b)
now (a,b)=(a,b+at) for every t is element of integer.
Then first we divide the bigger one by the smaller one:
33=1×27+633=1×27+6
Thus gcd(33,27)=gcd(27,6)gcd(33,27)=gcd(27,6). Repeating this trick:
27=4×6+327=4×6+3
and we see gcd(27,6)=gcd(6,3)gcd(27,6)=gcd(6,3).
at last 6=2×3+06=2×3+0
So since 6 is a perfect multiple of 3,
gcd(6,3)=3gcd(6,3)=3, and we have found that gcd(33,27)=3gcd(33,27)=3.
HENCE b i.e. bigger no. can be written as b=b+at
so the proof .
