  2. Is $b\\mid a$ standard notation for $b$ divides $a$?

    math.stackexchange.com/questions/135253

    $\begingroup$ This is the standard way, in the specific meaning of compliance to international standards: ISO 80000-2, clause 2.7-17.

  3. Does ⋮ mean "is divisible by" in mathematical notation?

    It may be awkward if in an exam the marker doesn't know what it means. The only way in normal notation to write it is 5 ∣ 5(2 + 3m). 5 ∣ 5 (2 + 3 m). I don’t know of a standard symbol for “a is divisible by b.”. This is also new to me.

  4. Is $0$ divisible by $0$? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    math.stackexchange.com/questions/2657910/is-0-divisible-by-0

    9. Yes, it is. Formal definition of divisibility is the following: Let a, b ∈ Z. Then a is divisible by b if and only if there exists an integer k such that a = kb. Now, in your case, we have a = b = 0, that is, 0 = k ⋅ 0 and there exists infinitely many such k so yes, 0 is divisible by 0. Share.

  5. Show that $n^3-n$ is divisible by $6$ using induction

    so that = (p3 − p) + 3p(p + 1) = (p 3 − p) + 3 p (p + 1) is divided by 6. hence, the answer is correct when n=p+1. When n=p the answer is correct too. We proved that the answer is correct when n=1. so as the mathematical induction, n3 − n n 3 − n is divided by 6 for the all positive integers.

    Contrary, 22 cannot be nicely divisible by 3, 22/3 does not have a remainder of zero, 22/3 = "7 R 1", or 7 + 1/3. Go back to the problem and use this reasoning as a template for the solution. Since we know that p(x) is divisible by x (nicely), then we know that the quantity that remains in terms of x must be equal to zero.

    2. I presume you mean that n2 − 1 n 2 − 1 is divisible by 8 8 for all odd values of n ∈N n ∈ N. In this case, let n = 2k + 1 n = 2 k + 1 with k ≥ 0 k ≥ 0. Then. n2 − 1 = (2k + 1)2 − 1 = 4k2 + 4k = 4k(k + 1) n 2 − 1 = (2 k + 1) 2 − 1 = 4 k 2 + 4 k = 4 k (k + 1) Now notice that either k k or k + 1 k + 1 is even to deduce ...

    I always find myself doing tests with binary numbers (without a calculator, I'm now developing automatas) and I've always asked myself if there was a fast trick to check whether a generic number is divisible by another binary number.

    math.stackexchange.com/questions/3371360/divisible-hull-of-a-subgroup-of-mathbbqn

    1. Yes. More generally, if V V is a vector space over Q Q and A A is a subgroup (=Z Z -submodule) of V V, then the divisible (essential) hull of A A can naturally be identified to the Q Q -subspace VectQ(A) V e c t Q (A) generated by A A. This is shown by checking that the latter is an (essential) divisible hull of A A.

  10. 7. n3 + 3n2 + 2n = (n + 1)(n + 2)n n 3 + 3 n 2 + 2 n = (n + 1) (n + 2) n. One of the factors must be even and one must be a multiple of three. Hence the product is a multiple of both 2 2 and 3 3 and hence is divisible by the least common multiple of 2 2 and 3 3, which turns out to be 6 6. Share. Cite. answered Jul 13, 2015 at 14:27.

  11. Divisibility of 9 trick: why does it work? [duplicate]

    math.stackexchange.com/questions/3514630

    m = akak − 1…a1a0. Lemma 1: If m ≥ 18 satisfies. 9 divides ak + ak − 1 + ⋯ + a1 + a0. then 9 divides m. Proof. To get a contradiction assume that 9 does not divides m and take m to be the minimal positive integer where this happens. If ak − 1 = 9 then replacing it with 0, m ′ = m − 9 × Tk − 1 = ak0ak − 2…a1a0.
