Question

For what value of natural number n, 4n can end with the digit 6?

Sum

Solution

4n = (2 × 2)n = 2n × 2n

2 is a factor of 4n.

So, 4n is always even and ends with 4 and 6.

When n is an even number say 2, 4, 6, 8 then 4n can end with the digit 6.

Example:

42 = 16

43 = 64

4= 256

45 = 1,024

46 = 4,096

47 = 16,384

48 = 65,536

49 = 262,144
