Solution

Let (66+14)2n+1 = P = I + F
where I is a positive integer and 0 < F < 1
clearly (6614)2n+1 = F' where 0 < F' < 1
Subtracting, we get
2[2n+1C1(66)2n×14+2n+1C3(66)2n2×143+.....]
= I + F - F'
I + F - F' = an even integer.
But since 0 < F < 1 and 0 < F' < 1, the only possible is that F - F' = 0 or F = F'.
Hence I is an even integer.
Also PF = PF' = (66+14)2n+1(6614)2n+1=(216196)2n+1=202n+1.
