Integer Theorem (5, 17, 27)

State a theorem about integers that is valid for all integers n, except for 5, 17, and 257. (Don�t just write an algebraic expression; write something with an equals sign in it.)


Show/Hide Solution

The inequality (n – 5)(n – 17)(n – 257) ≠ 0 is one of many possibilities. If you insist on having an equals sign, try this one:

(n – 5)(n – 17)(n – 257)   = 1.
(n – 5)(n – 17)(n – 257)
