Ta xét biểu thức \(A_1=7+7^2+7^3\) \(=7\left(1+7+7^2\right)\) \(=57.7⋮57\)
\(A_2=7^4+7^5+7^6\) \(=7^4\left(1+7+7^2\right)\) \(=57.7^4⋮57\)
...
\(A_{40}=7^{118}+7^{119}+7^{120}\) \(=7^{118}\left(1+7+7^2\right)⋮57\)
Vậy \(A=\sum\limits^{40}_{i=1}A_i\) đương nhiên chia hết cho 57 (đpcm)
\(A=7+7^2+7^3+...+7^{120}\)
\(=\left(7+7^2+7^3\right)+\left(7^4+7^5+7^6\right)+...+\left(7^{118}+7^{119}+7^{120}\right)\)
\(=7.\left(1+7+7^2\right)+7^4.\left(1+7+7^2\right)+...+7^{118}.\left(1+7+7^2\right)\)
\(=7.57+7^4.57+..+7^{118}.57\)
\(=57.\left(7+7^4+...+7^{118}\right)\)
⇒ A chia hết cho 57
Ta có: \(A=7+7^2+7^3+...+7^{120}\)
\(=\left(7+7^2+7^3\right)+\left(7^4+7^5+7^6\right)+....+\left(7^{118}+7^{119}+7^{120}\right)\)
\(=7\times\left(1+7+7^2\right)+7^4\times\left(1+7+7^2\right)+...+7^{118}\times\left(1+7+7^2\right)\)
\(=7\times57+7^4\times57+...+7^{118}\times57\)
\(=57\times\left(7+7^4+....+7^{118}\right)\)
=> A\(⋮\)57
