Strange divisibility (Posted on 2005-05-25)

Without evaluation of it, prove that the number N = 27,195^8 - 10,887^8 + 10,152^8 is divisible by 26,460.

Note: the original problem mistakenly listed the last number as 26,640. This has been corrected

Ravi would win, I'm afraid, if the bet is that the problem is correct as it stands.

The error in the problem statement is perhaps that 26,640 should have been 26,460?
