Answer» First 5 natural numbers in the form of ( 3n + 1) are = 4 , 7 , 10 , 13 , 16 Cube of these numbers are, = 43 = 4 × 4 × 4 = 64 = 73 = 7 × 7 × 7 = 343 = 103 = 10 × 10 × 10 = 1000 = 133 = 13 × 13 × 13 = 2197 = 163 = 16 × 16 × 16 = 4096 We find that all these cubes gives remainder 1 when divided by ‘3’ Hence, statement is true. |
