Gọi \(\text{ƯCLN( n+8 ; 2n+5 )}\) \(=d\left(d\in\text{N*}\right)\)
\(\Rightarrow\) \(\left\{{}\begin{matrix}\text{n + 8 ⋮ d}\\\text{2n - 5 ⋮ d}\end{matrix}\right.\)
\(\Rightarrow\) \(\left\{{}\begin{matrix}\text{2n + 16 ⋮ d}\\\text{2n - 5 ⋮ d}\end{matrix}\right.\)
\(\Rightarrow\) \(\text{2n + 16 – (2n-5) ⋮ d}\)
\(\Rightarrow\text{21 ⋮ d }\)
\(\Rightarrow\) \(\text{d }\in\left\{\text{1 ; 3 ; 7}\right\}\)
Nếu \(\text{d = 3}\)
\(\Rightarrow\) \(\text{n+8 ⋮ 3}\)
\(\Rightarrow\) \(\text{n + 8 = 3k ( k ∈ N*)}\)
\(\Rightarrow\) \(\text{n = 3k – 8}\)
\(\Rightarrow\) \(\text{2n – 5 = 2(3k – 8) – 5 = 6k – 16 – 5 = 6k – 21 = 3(2k – 7) ⋮ 3}\)
Vậy n khác \(\text{2k – 7}\) thì \(\text{n+8/2n -5}\) tối giản
