The converted source omits from the product; the PDF asks about . Fix the odd prime , and suppose is Carmichael. Its three prime factors are distinct by the Korselt criterion. Relabel so that .
The divisibility conditions include
Write
for a positive integer . Since ,
so . Moreover,
Multiplying the second divisibility by and reducing modulo gives
The positive integer on the right is at most . Consequently
There are only finitely many possible primes and integers , and each pair determines at most one . Therefore
