Solution 1
If
For integer
If
If
If
In conclusion, the smallest possible
Solution by Quantum-Phantom
Solution 2
We work in the ring
Solution 3 (Easy, given specialized knowledge)
Note that means The smallest prime that does this is and for example. Now let be a primitive root of The satisfying are of the form, So if we find one such , then all are Consider the from before. Note by LTE. Hence the possible are, Some modular arithmetic yields that is the least value.
