If nn is an odd integer and bb is an integer prime with nn, state what it means for nn to be a pseudoprime to the base bb. What is a Carmichael number? State a criterion for nn to be a Carmichael number and use the criterion to show that:

(i) Every Carmichael number is the product of at least three distinct primes.

(ii) 561 is a Carmichael number.
