  • Question
  • It is given that ( 2 32 + 1 ) is exactly divisible by a certain number. Which of the following is also definitely divisible by the same number?


  • Options
  • A. ( 216 + 1 )
  • B. ( 216 - 1 )
  • C. 7 x 213
  • D. ( 296 + 1 )

  • Correct Answer
  • ( 296 + 1 ) 

    Explanation

    Let 232 = x and let ( 232 + 1 ) = ( x + 1 )
    ( 296 + 1 ) = ( x3 + 1 ) = ( x + 1 )( x2 -x + 1 )
    Which is clearly divisible by n as ( x + 1 ) is divisible by n.
