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

Let's say that you are "close"...and you don't have to "fully delve into it".

But I agree that factors the numbers is an excellent idea !!!

That's all, for now.
