3. An army contingent of 616 members is to march behind an army band of 32 members in
a parade. The two groups are to march in the same number of columns. What is the
maximum number of columns in which they can march?
4. Use Euclid's division lemma to show that the square of any positive integer is either of
the form 3m or 3m + 1 for some integer m.
[Hint : Let x be any positive integer then it is of the form 3q, 3q+ 1 or 3q + 2. Now square
each of these and show that they can be rewritten in the form 3m or 3m +1.]
5. Use Euclid's division lemma to show that the cube of any positive integer is of the form
9m, 9m+ 1 or 9m+8.​
