SOLUTION:
Given,
P : a prime number
k: a number not divisible by P
We are also given a set of numbers Ak: {k, 2k, 3k, .... , (P-1)k}.
Very Important:
Note that NONE of the numbers in the set Ak can be divisible by P, because
k is not divisible by P and
P is a prime number
i.e. (m*k) mod P not equals 0 for any value of m between 1 to P-1.
To prove:
No two numbers in the given set Ak are congruent mod P
In other words,
There exists NO i,j between [1,P-1] (i not equals j), such that
(i*k) mod P = (j*k) mod P
Assumption:
Since i and j are not equal, it is safe to assume one of them to be less than the other.
Here, we assume, j<i.
Now, let us say for some time that, the statement below was possible
(i*k) mod P = (j*k) mod P
= some constant (say X)
So we can write
(i*k) mod P - (j*k) mod P = (X-X) mod P = 0 mod P
((i-j)*k) mod P = 0 mod P
(since i>j and i,j is between [1,P-1])
(m*k) mod P = 0
Which is not possible at all, as written in Given section.
Hence,
Proved
No two numbers in the given set Ak can be congruent mod P

please answer all the questions. just rearranging. Explanation is not needed. Use modular arithmetic to prove that 3|(221 – 1) for an integer n > 0. Hence, 3|(221 – 1) for n > 0. To show that 3|(221 – 1), we can show that (221 – 1) = 0 (mod 3). We have: (221 – 1) = (4” – 1) (mod 3) Then, (22n – 1) = (1 - 1) = 0 (mod 3) Since 4 = 1 (mod 3),...
