n = 2k+1, since all primes > 5 are odd.
n^4 - 1 = (2k)^4 + 4(2k)^3 + 6(2k)^2 + 4(2k)
166^4 + 32^3 + 24K^2 + 8k = S 240 = 16 * 3 *5
If k i seven, S is divisible by 16 = 2 * 8.
If k is odd, 24 (k^2)+ 8 k = 8 k (3k+1),
and 3k+1 is even, so S is divisible by 16 = 2 * 8. Therefore S is divisible by 16. k mod 3 = 0 => S divisible by 3 k mod 3 = 1 => (2k+1) = 0 mod 3 => n not prime
k mod 3 = 2 => (2k+1) = 2 mod 3, 2^4 = 1 mod 3,
so n^4 - 1 is divisible by 3. n mod 5 = 0 => n not prime
n mod 5 = 1 => (n^4 - 1) = 0 mod 5
n mod 5 = 2 => (n^4 - 1) = 0 mod 5 (16-1 = 15) n mod 5 = 3 => (n^4 - 1) = 0 mod 5 (81 -1 = 80)
n mod 5 = 4 => (n^4 - 1) = 0 mod 5 (256 - 1 = 255)
Therefore n^4 - 1 divisible by 16, by 3, and by 5, so by 240.
Answer:
