Abstract

Fermat's Last Theorem is a well-known classical theorem in mathematics. Andrew Willes has proven this theorem using the modular elliptic curve. However, the proposed proof is difficult for mathematicians and researchers to understand. For this reason, in this study, we provide evidence of several properties of Fermat's Last Theorem with a simple concept. We use Newton's Binomial Theorem, well-known in Fermat's time. In this study, we prove Fermat's Last Theorem for case . We also use the Newton’s Binomial theorem to verify several cases .
