Show that 12th cannot end with digit 0 or 5 for any natural number 'n'
  • 1 answers

Arohi . 6 years, 11 months ago

If 12n ends with 0 then it must have 5 as a factor. But, 12n=(2×2×3)n which shows that only 2 and 3 are the prime factors of 12n. Also, we know from the fundamental theory of arithmetic that the prime factorization of each number is unique. So, 5 is not a factor of 12n. Hence, 12n can never end with the digit 0.
