Problem 2

Call a natural number nn faithful, if there exist natural numbers a<b<ca<b<c such that aa divides b,bb, b divides cc and n=a+b+cn=a+b+c.

(i) Show that all but a finite number of natural numbers are faithful.

(ii) Find the sum of all natural numbers which are not faithful.

Problem 3

Suppose there exists a rational number rr such that P(r)=Q(r)=0P(r)=Q(r)=0. Prove that rr is an integer.

Problem 4
