Given that A n = 1 6 1 7 A , so A n − 1 = ( 2 4 ) 1 7 = 2 6 8 .
Therefore, n − 1 is a factor of 68,
the sum of all possible value of n − 1 is the sum of factor of 6 8 ( = 2 2 × 1 7 1 ) ,
so the sum of all possible value of n − 1 is ( 2 0 + 2 1 + 2 2 ) ( 1 7 0 + 1 7 1 ) = 7 × 1 8 = 1 2 6
Due to there are ( 2 + 1 ) ( 1 + 1 ) n , therefore the sum of all possible value of n is 1 2 6 + 6 = 1 3 2
