The total number of two digit numbers ' n ' , such that 3 n + 7 n is a multiple of 10 , is ___ .

The total number of two digit numbers 'n', such that 3n+7n is a multiple of 10 , is ___ .

Solution

7n=(10-3)n=10k+(-3)n

7n+3n=10k+(-3)n+3n

10k+-3n+3n=10k if n=odd10k+2.3n if n=even

Let n=2t; tN

3n=32t=(10-1)t

=10p+(-1)t

.=10p±1

if n= even then 7n+3n will not be multiply of 10

So if n is odd then only 7n+3n will be multiply of 10

n=11,13,15,.,99

Number of odd two digit numbers =45
