Solution

Let's break down each problem from the image.

E2. Express each of the following as a product of prime factors only in exponential form:

i) 108 × 192

We'll factorize each number:

  • 108=22×33108 = 2^2 \times 3^3
  • 192=26×3192 = 2^6 \times 3

Now multiply the factorizations: 108×192=(22×33)×(26×3)=22+6×33+1=28×34108 \times 192 = (2^2 \times 3^3) \times (2^6 \times 3) = 2^{2+6} \times 3^{3+1} = 2^8 \times 3^4

ii) 270

Factorize 270: 270=2×33×5270 = 2 \times 3^3 \times 5

iii) 729 × 64

Factorize each number:

  • 729=36729 = 3^6
  • 64=2664 = 2^6

Now multiply the factorizations: 729×64=36×26729 \times 64 = 3^6 \times 2^6

E3. Find the unit digit of:

a) 343^4

34=81(unit digit is 1)3^4 = 81 \quad \text{(unit digit is 1)}

b) 320253^{2025}

The powers of 3 repeat in cycles of 4 for the unit digit: 3,9,7,13, 9, 7, 1. To find the unit digit of 320253^{2025}, divide 2025 by 4 and find the remainder: 2025÷4=506remainder12025 \div 4 = 506 \, \text{remainder} \, 1 So, the unit digit is the same as 313^1, which is 3.

c) 242^4

24=16(unit digit is 6)2^4 = 16 \quad \text{(unit digit is 6)}

d) 220242^{2024}

The powers of 2 repeat in cycles of 4 for the unit digit: 2,4,8,62, 4, 8, 6. To find the unit digit of 220242^{2024}, divide 2024 by 4 and find the remainder: 2024÷4=506remainder02024 \div 4 = 506 \, \text{remainder} \, 0 So, the unit digit is the same as 242^4, which is 6.

E4. Find the remainder for:

a) 1332133^2 divided by 12

First, calculate 133mod12133 \mod 12: 133÷12=11(remainder is 1)133 \div 12 = 11 \quad \text{(remainder is 1)} Now, square the remainder: 1332mod12=12mod12=1133^2 \mod 12 = 1^2 \mod 12 = 1

b) 1332024133^{2024} divided by 12

Since 133mod12=1133 \mod 12 = 1, we have: 1332024mod12=12024mod12=1133^{2024} \mod 12 = 1^{2024} \mod 12 = 1
