Prove 151^3-25^3 is divisible by 126

9514 1404 393

  151 -25 = 126 is a factor of the difference of those cubes

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression can be factored as ...

  a^3 -b^3 = (a -b)(a^2 +ab +b^2)

  151^3 -25^3 = (151 -25)(151^2 +151·25 +25^2)

  = 126(151^2 +151·25 +25^2)

That is, 126 is a factor of the difference of the given cubes. The difference is divisible by 126.
