उत्तर
Let the given statement be P(n), i.e.,
P(n): 102n – 1 + 1 is divisible by 11.
It can be observed that P(n) is true for n = 1 since P(1) = 102.1 – 1 + 1 = 11, which is divisible by 11.
Let P(k) be true for some positive integer k, i.e.,
102k – 1 + 1 is divisible by 11.
∴102k – 1 + 1 = 11m, where m ∈ N … (1)
We shall now prove that P(k + 1) is true whenever P(k) is true.
Consider
Thus, P(k + 1) is true whenever P(k) is true.
Hence, by the principle of mathematical induction, statement P(n) is true for all natural numbers i.e., n.
