when n is composite a is known as a Fermat liar. In this case n is called Fermat pseudoprime to base a. If we do pick an a such that then a is known as a Fermat witness for the compositeness of n. Example. Suppose we wish to determine whether n = 221 is prime.

Fermat primality test - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermat_primality_test
Fermat's little theorem states that if p is prime and a is not divisible by p, then If one wants to test whether p is prime, then we can pick random integers a not divisible by p and see whether the equality holds. If the equality does not hold for a value of a, then p is composite. This congruence is unlikely to hold for a random a if p is composite. Therefore, if the equality does hold for one or more values of a, then we say that p is probably prime.
