"When a positive integer is chosen, if the number is even, it is divided by 2; otherwise, it is multiplied by 3 and after that 1 is added to the result. Due to the condition that the result is odd or even, the same operation is repeated with the required option of the problem, every positive integer other than 0 and 1 can the integer be reduced to 1?"
