$a$ algebraic number, $\exists$ integer $n>0$ such that $na$ algebraic integer 
If $a$ is an algebraic number, show that there exists a positive
  integer $n$ such that $na$ is an algebraic integer.

I'm supposing that $a$ is algebraic over a field $F$, that is, there exists a polynomial $p(x)$ over $F$ such that $p(a) = 0$ . If we think about $F$ being $\mathbb{Q}$, then $a = p/q$. And if we think that $p(x) = x-a$, we have that $p(x) = x-p/q$ is our polynomial. But I don't know if it helps. I don't even know if we can suppose that $x-a$ is our polynomial
 A: Let $f(a)=0$ be monic, degree $n$. If the polynomial is not already a polynomial over the integers, it has a term whose coefficient is rational, with denominator $q$ when fully reduced. Suppose that's the coefficient of $x_k$.
Let $g(x)=q^nf(x/q)$. Note that the coefficient of $x^k$ in $g$ is a whole number, $g$ is monic, and $g(qa)=0$. 
If $g$ still has some non-integer rational coefficients, repeat until you do have a polynomial whose coefficients are all integers.
A: Hint $\ $ Recall from high-school the AC-method that transforms factoring any polynomial into one that is  $\,\rm\color{#c00}{monic}\,$ (lead coeff $=1)$ e.g. as follows:
$$\quad\ \ \begin{eqnarray}
f &\,=\,& \ \  9\ x^2-\ 80\ x\ -\,\ 9\\
\Rightarrow\ 9f &\,=\,& (9x)^2\! -80(9x)-81\\
         &\,=\,& \ \ \ \  \color{#c00}{X^2\!- 80\  X\ -\,\ 81},\,\ \ X\, =\, 9x\\
         &\,=\,&  \ \ \ \,(X-81)\ (X+\,1)\\
         &\,=\,& \ \ \ (9x-81)\,(9x+1)\\
\Rightarrow\  f\,=\, 9^{-1}(9f)  &\,=\,&   \ \ \ \ \  (x\ -\ 9)\,(9x+1)\\
\end{eqnarray}$$
If we denote our factoring algorithm by $\,\cal F,\,$ then the above transformation is simply
$$\cal F f\,  = a^{-1}\cal F\, a\,f\quad\,$$
Thus we've transformed by $ $ conjugation $\,\ \cal F = a^{-1} \cal F\, a\ \,$ the problem of factoring non-monic polynomials into the simpler problem of factoring monic polynomials. 
This is sometimes called the AC method. It works for higher degree polynomials too. As above, we can reduce the problem of factoring a non-monic polynomial to that of factoring a monic polynomial by scaling by a  $ $ power of the lead coefficient $\rm\:a\:$ then changing variables: $\rm\ X = a\:x$
$$\begin{eqnarray} \rm\: a\:f(x)\:\! \,=\,\:\! a\:(a\:x^2 + b\:x + c)  &\,=\,&\rm\: X^2 + b\:X + \!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\smash[t]{\overbrace{ac}^{\rm\qquad\ \ \ \ \ {\bf AC-method}}}\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\! =\, g(X),\ \ \ X = a\:x \\
\\
\rm\: a^{n-1}(a\:x^n\! + b\:x^{n-1}\!+\cdots+d\:x + c) &\,=\,&\rm\: X^n\! + b\:X^{n-1}\!+\cdots+a^{n-2}d\:X + a^{n-1}c
\end{eqnarray}$$ 
After factoring the monic $\rm\,g(X)\, =\, a^{n-1}f(x),\,$ we are guaranteed that the transformation reverses to yield a factorization of $\rm\:f,\ $ since $\rm\ a^{n-1}$ must divide into the factors of $\rm\ g\ $ by Gauss' Lemma, i.e. primes  $\,p\in\rm\mathbb Z\,$ remain prime in $\rm\,\mathbb Z[X],\,$ so $\rm\ p\ |\ g_1(x)\:g_2(x)\,$ $\Rightarrow$ $\,\rm\:p\:|\:g_1(x)\:$ or $\rm\:p\:|\:g_2(x).$
Clearly this resolves your problem (and more). See this answer for further discussion.
