Dec 21, 2020 at 19:12 | comment | added | John Omielan | If $p = 3$, then $q \equiv 2 \pmod{3}$, so $p' = 23 \equiv 2 \pmod{3}$ and $q' \equiv 0 \pmod{3}$. If $p \equiv 1 \pmod{3}$, then $q \equiv 0 \pmod{3}$ and $q \gt 3$, so it can't be prime. Finally, with $p = 2$, then $q$ is not prime, but if otherwise $p \equiv 2 \pmod{3}$, then $q \equiv 1 \pmod{3}$, so $p' \equiv 2 \pmod{3}$ and $q' \equiv 0 \pmod{3}$. Thus, your statement is always true. In questions like this, you should always first check the smaller modulo values. | |
