Let n be an arbitrary positive integer.
On dividing n by 3, let m be the quotient and r be the remainder.
The positive integer is in the form of 3m or (3m + 1) or (3m + 2)
Then, by Euclid's division lemma, we have
n = 3m + r, where {tex}0 \leq r < 3{/tex}.
{tex}\therefore{/tex} n = 3m or (3m +1) or (3m + 2), for some integer m.
Thus, any positive integer is of the form 3m or (3m + 1) or (3m + 2) for some integer m.
