n^2+n-1 has no divisors ending with 3 or 7 |
2005-09-08 |
|
From Arne: at least it seems like for any integers n and k,
10k+3 and 10k+7 do not divide nē+n-1
I tested this for every n from 0 to 3200 (which means same for the numbers from -3201 to -1)
could this be true, or is it just coincidence, or am I just totally wrong? Answered by Richard McIntosh. |

The last digit of 2^28 |
2004-09-25 |
|
From A student: I am currently enrolled in a math reasoning class and a math question I have to answer is determine the units digit in 3 28power. When I set up a table and keep cubing the numbers, I find a pattern with the last digits of the numbers that follow 1,3,9,7. My calculator gets to about the 19th power, and then I get an error. If I continued the pattern, would the units digit then be the last digit of 3 28th power, which would be a 7? Please let me know if I am solving this correctly and what a unit's digit actually is.
