Let `n` be a positive integer. Prove that the relation R on the set Z of all integers numbers defined by `(x , y) in R iff x-y` is divisible by `n ,` is an equivalence relation on Z.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Неге, `R=\{(x, y): x, y \in R` and (x-y) is divisible by `n\}`

For all a `\in` R,

`\Rightarrow`(a-a)=0 and 0 is divisible by n.
