Yes, if x is an integer divisible by 3, then x^2 is also divisible by 3. This is because for any integer x, x^2 will also be divisible by 3 if x is divisible by 3. This can be proven using the property that the square of any integer divisible by 3 will also be divisible by 3.

Call the unknown integer x. Then, from the problem statement, x - 3/x = 26/3, or:x2 - 3 = 26x/3; or x2 - (26/3)x - 3 = 0x = 9
All numbers of the form 6+12x are, for all integer x.
X is divisible by Y if there is an integer Z such that X = Y*Z that is, Y will go into X without remainder.
