Number Theory
A prison houses 100 inmates, one in each of 100 cells, guarded by a total of 100 warders. One evening, all the cells are locked and the keys left in the locks. As the first warder leaves, she turns every key, unlocking all the doors. The second warder ... every third key and so on. Finally the last warder turns the key in just the last cell. Which doors are left unlocked and why?

Kenneth Rosen section 3.4 Exercise question 12
Is this approach right in proving a theorem Ques: show that a mod m = b mod m if a is congruent to b (mod m) Proof: given a is congruent to b(mod m) According to definition: a - b / m i.e a - b = mx (for some integer x). ....(1) Also a = ... by equation (3) then we get a mod m = my + a my + a can also be written as b mod m Therefore, a mod m = b mod m

Divisibility Test of 11
This is the statement for Divisibility test of 11. Add and subtract digits in an alternating pattern (add digit, subtract next digit, add next digit, etc). Then check if that answer is divisible by 11. This is the proof that I found : If x is divisible by 11, then x ≡ 0 (mod 11). ... -------------------------------------- Now, I didn't understand the proof starting from But.

Let $m$ and $n$ be any two positive integers. Then, which of the following is FALSE? $m + 1$ divides $m^{2n} − 1$. For any prime $p$, $m^{p} \equiv m (\mod p)$. If one of $m$, $n$ is prime, then there are integers $x, y$ such that $mx + ny = 1$. If $m < n$, then $m!$ divides $n(n − 1)(n − 2) \ldots (n − m + 1)$. If $2^{n} − 1$ is prime, then $n$ is prime.
