options:
a.1
b.0
c.6
d.5
Read Solution (Total 6)
-
- (76^77)/7
(7*10+6)^77/7=(6)^77/7
6/7=6
rem=6 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(9) No(1)
- 6..6^n always 6.

- 76^77/7
=>(7*11-1)^77/7
=> (-1)^77/7
=> -1/7 => rem= 7-1=6 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(0)
- 6^n always gives last digit as 6 so by dividing 6 with 7 remainder will be 6

- Ans is 6
76 divides by 7 then remainder is 6
then 6^77 is divided by 7 then the result is 6^1/7=6,6^2/7=1 or 6^3/7=1
for so on 77 divides 2 then remainder is 1
then calculate the value of 6^1 then result is 6 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- ans is c. 6
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
