Problem 3
For a positive integer , let
be the units digit of
. Find the remainder when
is divided by
.
Solution
We see that appears in cycles of
and the cycles are
adding a total of
each cycle.
Since
, we know that by
, there have been
cycles and
has been added. This can be discarded as we're just looking for the last three digits.
Adding up the first
of the cycle of
, we can see that the answer is
.
