The remainder on dividing 5 99 by 11 is _____ .

The remainder on dividing 599 by 11 is _____ .

Solution

Now to divide 599 by 11 we need to check the cyclicity of power of 5 when divided by 11,

So remainder when 51115 as remainder

Similarly,

5211=25113 as remainder

5311=125114 as remainder

5411=625119 as remainder

And 5511=3125111 as remainder

So, rewriting the expression we get, 5519×54

Now when 5519×54111×5411 

Now again simplifying we get, 5411 9  as remainder.
