  2. Divisibility rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisibility_rule

    11 0 (Take the last digit of the number, and check if it is 0 or 5) 11 0 (If it is 0, take the remaining digits, discarding the last) 11 × 2 = 22 (Multiply the result by 2) 110 ÷ 5 = 22 (The result is the same as the original number divided by 5) If the last digit is 5. 85 (The original number)

  3. Euclid's lemma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclid's_lemma

    The two first subsections, are proofs of the generalized version of Euclid's lemma, namely that: if n divides ab and is coprime with a then it divides b. The original Euclid's lemma follows immediately, since, if n is prime then it divides a or does not divide a in which case it is coprime with a so per the generalized version it divides b.

  4. Least common multiple - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least_common_multiple

    The positive integers may be partially ordered by divisibility: if a divides b (that is, if b is an integer multiple of a) write a ≤ b (or equivalently, b ≥ a). (Note that the usual magnitude-based definition of ≤ is not used here.) Under this ordering, the positive integers become a lattice, with meet given by the gcd and join given by ...

  5. Bézout's identity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bézout's_identity

    Here the greatest common divisor of 0 and 0 is taken to be 0.The integers x and y are called Bézout coefficients for (a, b); they are not unique.A pair of Bézout coefficients can be computed by the extended Euclidean algorithm, and this pair is, in the case of integers one of the two pairs such that | x | ≤ | b/d | and | y | ≤ | a/d |; equality occurs only if one of a and b is a multiple ...

  6. Euclid's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclid's_theorem

    The above proof continues to work if is replaced by any prime with {,, …,}, the product becomes + and even vs. odd argument is replaced with a divisible vs. not divisible by argument. The resulting contradiction is that P − p j {\displaystyle P-p_{j}} must, simultaneously, equal 1 {\displaystyle 1} and be greater than 1 {\displaystyle 1 ...

  7. Divisible group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisible_group

    In mathematics, specifically in the field of group theory, a divisible group is an abelian group in which every element can, in some sense, be divided by positive integers, or more accurately, every element is an nth multiple for each positive integer n.

  8. Lattice (order) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lattice_(order)

    A lattice is an abstract structure studied in the mathematical subdisciplines of order theory and abstract algebra.It consists of a partially ordered set in which every pair of elements has a unique supremum (also called a least upper bound or join) and a unique infimum (also called a greatest lower bound or meet).

  9. Prime element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_element

    Note that in an integral domain, the ideal (0) is a prime ideal, but 0 is an exception in the definition of 'prime element'.) Interest in prime elements comes from the fundamental theorem of arithmetic , which asserts that each nonzero integer can be written in essentially only one way as 1 or −1 multiplied by a product of positive prime numbers.
