Find counterexamples to the following statements: (i) If n is a prime number, then 2ⁿ − 1 is a prime number. (ii) If n is an even number, then 2ⁿ + 1 is a prime number.

  • 0

For (i), n = 11 is prime, but 2¹¹ − 1 = 2047 = 23 × 89 is composite. For (ii), n = 6 is even, but 2⁶ + 1 = 65 = 5 × 13 is composite.
