What will be the remainder if 4^1000/7

• 4^1000/7
  =(4^3)^333 * 4 / 7
  =(7*9+1)^333*4/7
  =4/7
  => remainder = 4

• whenever we get a form like ,
  (ax+1)^n/a Then , the remainder is always 1
  or
  (ax-1)^n/a Then , the remainder is always (a-1)
  Now ,solving the question by converting the problem in above given forms,
  we get ,
  (((4^3)^333)*4)/7
  Then we are left with ,
  
  1*4/7,
  Which will leave 4 as the remainder.
  Answer=4.

• 4^1000/7
  2^2000/7
  (2^1998*2^2)/7
  ((2^3)^666*2^2)/7
  ((8)^666*2^2)/7
  (1^666*2^2)/7 (since remainder is 1 when 7 divides 8)
  this reduces the problem to 2^2/7
  hence remainder 4

• 4^1000/7
  =(7-3)^1000/7
  =3^1000/7
  =9^500/7
  =2^500/7
  =(((2^3)^166)*4)/7
  =>remainder=4

  =2^500/7
  =(((2^3)^166)*4)/7
  =>remainder=4
