ta có
\(1+3+3^2+..+3^{2000}=\left(1+3+3^2\right)+\left(3^3+3^4+3^5\right)+..+\left(3^{1998}+3^{1999}+3^{2000}\right)\)
\(=13.1+13\cdot3^3+..+13\cdot3^{1998}\) chia hết cho 13
tương tự
\(1+4+4^2+..+4^{2012}=\left(1+4+4^2\right)+..+\left(4^{2010}+4^{2011}+4^{2012}\right)\)
\(=21.1+21\cdot4^3+..+21.4^{2010}\) chia hết cho 21
