 Quote by g_pet
a^n + (p*b)^n = (q*b)^n
Here is the absurd. In fact the number on the right contains in its
decomposition in primes factors the factor q: now for the Euclide's
theorem on the uniqueness of the decomposition in primes factors
also the number on the left has to contain the factor q
which is
not possible because at most two cases should present, both absurd
1) p contains in his decomposition the factor q: this is against the
hypothesis that p and q are primes so this possibility has to be
thrown away
2) b contains in his decomposition the factor q: in this case also the factor
a has to contain, in his decomposition the factor q and thus a and b could
not be primes between them: also this has to be thrown away because
of the previous hypothesis
At the end the negation of the thesis is absurd and therefore it is demonstrated

The same argument would conclude that 1+2=3 is absurd....
