Let us consider a and b where a be any positive number and b is equal to 3.
According to Euclid’s Division Lemma
a = bq + r
where r is greater than or equal to zero and less than b (0 ≤ r < b)
a = 3q + r
so r is an integer greater than or equal to 0 and less than 3.
Hence r can be either 0, 1 or 2.
Case 1: When r = 0, the equation becomes
a = 3q
Cubing both the sides
where m =
Case 2: When r = 1, the equation becomes
a = 3q + 1
Cubing both the sides
Where m =
Case 3: When r = 2, the equation becomes
a = 3q + 2
Cubing both the sides
Where m = therefore a can be any of the form 9m or 9m + 1 or, 9m + 8.
