FAQ Question:
Can you solve this without a calculator?


Problem:
What is the quotient when the one’s digit of 66436^{643}6643 is divided by 3?


Answer:
The key is to recognize that 6 raised to any power will always end with 6.
The one’s digit is 6, and 6÷3=26 \div 3 = 26÷3=2.
So, the answer is 2.
