    1) When a number is raised to a power, its unit digit will be the same if the original number's unit digit is 0, 1, 5, or 6. 2) If the original number's unit digit is 2, 3, 7, or 8, there is a cyclic pattern of the unit digit depending on whether the power is divisible by 4. 3) If the original number's unit digit is 4, the unit digit will be 4 if the power is odd and 6 if the power is even. 4) If the original number's unit digit is 9, the unit digit will be 9 if the power is odd and 1 if the power is even.

    Finding the unit digit when a number is raised to some power

    (i) Finding the unit digit is 0, 1, 5 or 6 : So, 6 + 1 + 5 + 0 = 12


    When a number having 0, 1, 5 or 6 as unit digit is raised Required unit digit is ‘2’.
    to some power, the number obtained will have the same (2) Find the unit digit :
    number, i.e., 0, 1, 5 or 6 respectively, as its unit digit, no [(54)99 + 9954] × [(144)144 + (199)199]
    matter what power it is raised to. (a) 4 (b) 1
    (c) 5 (d) 6
    When the unit digit is 2, 3, 7 or 8 : Solution:
    Ans. (c) (54)99 (99)54 (144)144 (199)199
    Unit digit Unit digit Unit digit Unit digit    
        Unit digit 4 1 6 9
    ( 4 + 1) × (6 + 9) = 5 × 15 = 75
    21  31  71  81  So, required unit digit is  4
    2 3 7 8 (3) Find the unit digit :
    22  32  72  82  [(162)162 × (197)150] + [(543)540 × (698)638]
    4 9 9 4 (a) 6 (b) 0
    23  33  73  83  (c) 4 (d) 7
    8 7 3 2
    Solution:
    24  34  74  84 
    6 1 1 6
    162 162 4 Remainder = 2
    (162)
    From the above table, it is clear that 2, 3, 7 and 8 have a
    22 =4
    cyclicity of 4 for the unit digits So, unit digit in (162)162 4
    So, to find the unit digit, we divide the power by 4 and 150 150 4 Remainder = 2
    raise the unit of the original number to the remainder (197)
    2
    But, when the power is completely divisible by 4, the 7 =49
    unit digit is obtained by raising the unit digit of the
    original number to power 4 So, unit digit in (197)150 is 9
    540 540 4 Remainder = 0
    When the unit digit is 4 : (543)
    If the power is odd unit digit is 4 34 =81
    If the power is even unit digit is 6
    So, unit digit in (543)540 is 1
    When the unit digit is 9
    If the power is odd unit is 9
    If the power is even unit digit is 1
    Questions:
    So, unit digit in (698)638 is 4.
    (1) Find the unit digit of :
    (4x9) + (1x4) = 40
    (126)125 + (141)150 + (125)126 + (150)141
    (a) 2 (b) 1 So, the required unit digit is ‘0’
    (c) 6 (d) 5

    Solution:
    Ans. (a) (126)125 (141)150 (125)126 (150)141
       
    Unit digit 6 1 5 0
