Suppose that $p> 2$ is a prime number. For each integer $k = 1, 2,..., p-1$, denote $r_k$ as the remainder of the division $k^p$ by $p^2$. Prove that $r_1+r_2+r_3+...+r_{p-1}=\frac{p^2(p-1)}{2}$
If we divide the number $13$ by the three numbers $5, 7$, and $9$, then these divisions leave remainders: when dividing by $5$ the remainder is $3$, when dividing by $7$ the remainder is $6$, and when dividing by $9$ the remainder is 4. If we add these remainders, we obtain $3 + 6 + 4 = 13$, the original number. (a) Let $n$ be a positive integer and let $a$ and $b$ be two positive integers smaller than $n$.
