Show that any odd positive integer is of the form 4q+1, or 4q+3.
ANSWER
We have
Any positive integer is of the form 4q+1or4q+3
As per Euclid’s Division lemma.
If a and b are two positive integers, then,
a=bq+r
Where 0≤r<b.
Let positive integers be a.and b=4
Hence,a=bq+r
Where, (0≤r<4)
R is an integer greater than or equal to 0 and less than 4
Hence, r can be either 0,1,2and3
Now, If r=1
Then, our be equation is becomes
a=bq+r
a=4q+1
This will always be odd integer.
Now, If r=3
Then, our be equation is becomes
a=bq+r
a=4q+3
This will always be odd integer.
Hence proved.

Step-by-step explanation:
Given, a = 4q+r
According to Euclid's division lemma,
a = bq + r where 'r' lies between 0 & b including 0
here b = 4
=> possible values of r = 0 , 1 , 2 , 3
If r= 0 , then a = 4q + 0 = 4q
If r= 1 , then a = 4q + 1
If r= 2 , then a = 4q + 2
If r= 3 , then a = 4q + 3
Also given, a is divided by 4
so from the above, 4q is only divisible by 4
.•. possible values of r when a is divided by 4 are
r = 0
