Solution
Finding the unit's digit of :
For multiplication, find the unit's digit of each number separately, then multiply them.
Unit's digit of 257 is 7. Finding the pattern when multiplying 7 repeatedly:
(unit's digit: 7)
(unit's digit: 9)
(unit's digit: 3)
(unit's digit: 1)
(unit's digit: 7)
Pattern: {7, 9, 3, 1} repeats every 4 powers.
Dividing the exponent: remainder
Remainder 1 corresponds to position 1 in pattern: 7
Unit's digit of 346 is 6. Any power of 6 always ends in 6.
Multiplying the unit's digits:
Unit's digit = 2
(A) → (IV)
Finding the unit's place of :
To get unit's digit 0, the product needs both 2 and 5 as factors.
(provides factor 5)
(provides factors of 2)
Since both are in the product:
Any number with 10 as a factor has unit's digit 0.
(B) → (III)
Finding the remainder when 121012 is divided by 12:
Breaking down 121012:
Dividing 1012 by 12:
Remainder = 4
(C) → (II)
Finding the unit's digit of :
From the earlier calculations:
Unit's digit of
Unit's digit of
Adding the unit's digits:
Unit's digit = 3
(D) → (I)
Final Matching:
(A) → (IV) = 2
(B) → (III) = 0
(C) → (II) = 4
(D) → (I) = 3
