A two digit Base-P integer N is such that the sum of the digits of a Base-P number K ( in base-P notation) is divisible by P(2P-3) where the magnitude of K is equivalent to (P^N - N) in Base-10 (decimal) notation. (i) For which P satisfying 5<=P<=25 do solutions exist? (ii) If in addition, N is expressible as the sum of two squares and the sum of digits of N is a prime number, would any solution to the problem , corresponding to the range of P in terms of Clause (i), still exist?
