解析
- [ 5 ] Determine the remainder when 1 + 2 + · · · + 2014 is divided by 2012. Answer: 1009 We wish to find the value of 1 + 2 + · · · + 2014 modulo 2012. We have 1 1 + 2 + · · · + 2014 = (2014)(2015) = 1007 · 2015 ≡ 1007 · 3 = 3021 ≡ 1009 (mod 2012) . 2 Remark: Note that, since 2 is not relatively prime to 2012, that this is not the same as 1 (2)(3) ≡ 3 (mod 2012) . 2
