We have 4n where n = 1, 2, 3, 4.......
if n = 1 then 4n = 41 = 4
if n = 2 then 4n = 42 = 16 and so on
If a number ends with zero then it is divisible by 5.
Here, 4 and 16 are not divisible by 5.
Therefore, 4n can never end with zero.

Let n = 4q + 1 (an odd integer)
{tex}\therefore \quad n ^ { 2 } - 1 = ( 4 q + 1 ) ^ { 2 } - 1{/tex}
{tex}= 16 q ^ { 2 } + 1 + 8 q - 1 \quad \text { Using Identity } ( a + b ) ^ { 2 } = a ^ { 2 } + 2 a b + b ^ { 2 }{/tex}
{tex}= 16{q^2} + 8q{/tex}
{tex}= 8 \left( 2 q ^ { 2 } + q \right){/tex}
= 8m, which is divisible by 8.

n3 - n = n (n2 - 1) = n (n - 1) (n + 1)
Whenever a number is divided by 3, the remainder obtained is either 0 or 1 or 2.
∴ n = 3p or 3p + 1 or 3p + 2, where p is some integer.
If n = 3p, then n is divisible by 3.
If n = 3p + 1, then n – 1 = 3p + 1 –1 = 3p is divisible by 3.
If n = 3p + 2, then n + 1 = 3p + 2 + 1 = 3p + 3 = 3(p + 1) is divisible by 3.
So, we can say that one of the numbers among n, n – 1 and n + 1 is always divisible by 3.
⇒ n (n – 1) (n + 1) is divisible by 3.
Similarly, whenever a number is divided by 2, the remainder obtained is 0 or 1.
∴ n = 2q or 2q + 1, where q is some integer.
If n = 2q, then n is divisible by 2.
If n = 2q + 1, then n – 1 = 2q + 1 – 1 = 2q is divisible by 2 and n + 1 = 2q + 1 + 1 = 2q + 2 = 2 (q + 1) is divisible by 2.
So, we can say that one of the numbers among n, n – 1 and n + 1 is always divisible by 2.
⇒ n (n – 1) (n + 1) is divisible by 2.
Since, n (n – 1) (n + 1) is divisible by 2 and 3.
∴ n (n-1) (n+1) = n3 - n is divisible by 6.( If a number is divisible by both 2 and 3 , then it is divisible by 6)
