Answer:

Proof for [tex]k|r[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a, n, b, r and k are integers.

Also,

[tex]a = nb + r[/tex]

Since k divides a and b, we can write,

a = rk and b = sk, where r and s are integers.

Now, we have to prove that k divides r as well that is [tex]k|r[/tex]

Putting value of a and b in the equation, we get:

[tex]rk = n(sk) + r\\r = rk - nsk\\r = (r-sn)k[/tex]

Since, (r-sn) is an integer, k divides r.
