If n is a non-negative integer such that 12^n is a divisor of 3,176,793, what is the value of n^12 - 12^n ?
a. -11
b. -1
c. 0
d. 1
e. 11
a. -11
b. -1
c. 0
d. 1
e. 11
No positive integer n can make 12^n a divisor of 3,176,793 simply because no EVEN can be a divisor of an ODD. Hence n is none other than 0.okigbo wrote:If n is a non-negative integer such that 12^n is a divisor of 3,176,793, what is the value of n^12 - 12^n ?

Now, n^12 - 12^n = 0^12 - 12^0 = 0 - 1 = [spoiler]-1[/spoiler].
[spoiler]B[/spoiler]
