Hello, Group. Can someone calculate the length of N= (2^1660693)*(2^1660693+21)+1? I esimated it as [(2*1660693)*((log 2)/(log 10))] as someone suggested and...

Is there a simple answer for the reason that ((2*T)^721) mod 115921 = 1 for all primes T except 13, 37, and 241 And, 721 =7 * 103 is the smallest such number. ...

I am not sure what you are saying, but ((2*2)^721) mod 115921 = 1 no? Also, ((2*3)^721) mod 115921 = 1 but not ((2*13)^721) mod 115921 =/= 1...
