To solve, you need to factor out 4^41. What's left inside is small enough that it can be calculated in under 90 seconds: 4^41 (1 + 4 + 4^2 + 4^3 + 4^4) 4^41 (1 + 4 + 16 + 64 + 256) 4^41 (341) 4^41 (11) (31) * This number is divisible by 11 and 31 since these appear among its factors. This is why th...
