(221)n + (221)n + 1 where n is a natural number, is not divisible by?
(221)n + (221)n + 1 where n is a natural number, is not divisible by? Correct Answer 11
Given:
The given expression is (221)n + (221)n + 1
Concept Used:
If the number is Divisible by the given number then it should be the multiple of that number
Calculation:
By using the exponential identity the given expression can be written as
∴ (221) n + (221) n + 1 = (221) n + (221) n × 221
Now, by taking (221) n common we get
∴ (221) n × (221 + 1) = (221) n × 222
Now, if the value of n is 1
∴ (221) 1 × 222 = 13 × 17 × 2 × 111
So, the given expression is divisible by 17, 13 and 2
Hence, option (4) is correct
