Part 1: If p = 7 (mod 8) where p is prime, show that p
divides 2^((p-1)/2)-1
My approach was correct. When p = 7 (mod 8), we have
p=8k +7 and (p-1)/2=4k+3.
*how come
By Fermat's Little Theorem: 2^(p-1) = 1 (mod p)
This means 2^(8k+6) = 1 (mod p)
Since (2^(4k+3))^2=2^(8k+6), we have (2^(4k+3))^2 = 1
