Explanation Given information: p is a prime number and n is an integer with n ≥ 1. Concept used: There are p n − 1 integers between 1 and p n divisible by p . Proof: The positive integers less than p n and co-prime to p n are different from the divisors of p n . p , 2 p , 3 p , ........ , p n − 1 p are the divisors of p n . These are p n − 1 in number
