If 2 2015 2 2014 = ζ 2^{2015}-2^{2014}=\zeta

8 2015 8 2014 = λ 8^{2015}-8^{2014}=\lambda

Find λ ζ 3 \dfrac{\lambda} {\zeta^3}

2 2014 2^{2014} 7 2 3 2 2^3-2 10 8 12

2 2015 × 2 2014 = 2 2014 ( 2 1 ) = 2 2014 = ζ { 2 }^{ 2015 }\times { 2 }^{ 2014 }\quad =\quad { 2 }^{ 2014 }(2-1)\quad =\quad { 2 }^{ 2014 } =\boxed { \zeta}

8 2015 × 8 2014 = 8 2014 ( 8 1 ) = 8 2014 × 7 = 2 3 × 2014 × 7 = λ { 8 }^{ 2015 }\times { 8 }^{ 2014 }\quad =\quad { 8 }^{ 2014 }(8-1)\quad =\quad { 8 }^{ 2014 }\times 7\quad =\quad { 2 }^{ 3\times 2014 }\times 7\quad \\=\quad \boxed {\lambda}

Thus

λ ζ 3 = 2 3 × 2014 × 7 2 3 × 2014 = 7 \large {\frac { \lambda }{ { \zeta }^{ 3 } } \quad =\quad \frac { { 2 }^{ 3\times 2014 }\times 7 }{ { 2 }^{ 3\times 2014 } } =\boxed { 7 }}
