If n is a positive integer and r is the remainder when (n - 1)(n + 1) is divided by 24, what is the value of r ?
(1) n is not divisible by 2.
(2) n is not divisible by 3.
答案C
前辈解答:
根据1和2分别都推不出来,根据1:n是奇数->n-1 或者n+1一个是2的倍数,一个是4的倍数,所以含有因子8;
根据2:n不是3的倍数->n-1 或者n+1肯定有个3的倍数
1+2:(n - 1)(n + 1) 肯定是8X3=24的倍数->r=0充分
