  1. Ask your question and show the work you've done so far. If you've posted a screenshot of a question, specify which part you need help with.
  2. Wait patiently for a helper to come along.
  3. Once someone helps you, say thank you and close the thread with:
    +close
    
  4. Feel free to nominate the person for helper of the week in #helper-nominations
  5. Do not ping the mods, unless someone is breaking the rules.
  6. If you're happy with the help you got here, and the server overall, you can contribute financially as well:

n probably represents a integer that is not divisible by 3. Since a number as such divided by 3 will either result in a remainder of 1 or 2. For example 5=3x1+2, 47=3x15+2

#

*a positive integer

in those 3 forms, k is an integer.

#

these three forms also represent all possible residuos of n when divided by 3
