Use Fermat's Little Theorem to determine 7^542 mod 13.

m_a_m_a [10]

$a^{p-1} \equiv 1 \pmod p$ where $p$ is prime, $a\in\mathbb{Z}$ and $a$ is not divisible by $p$ .

$7^{13-1}\equiv 1 \pmod {13}\\7^{12}\equiv 1 \pmod {13}\\\\542=45\cdot12+2\\\\7^{45\cdot 12}\equiv 1 \pmod {13}\\7^{45\cdot 12+2}\equiv 7^2 \pmod {13}\\7^{542}\equiv 49 \pmod{13}$

sarah, natasha and richard share some sweets in the ratio 5:2:4. sarah gets 60 sweets. how many did richard get?

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

48 sweets

Step-by-step explanation:

5:2:4

Sarah: 5

Natasha:2

Richard:4

To find out how many sweets Richard got, we need to use 60 as the lcm. Since, we have a definite constant of 60 we need to divide it by the presiding ratio.

60/5 = 12

That means for a ratio of 1, everyone in the group recieves 12.

Now, we plug it in for each of the members.

5x = Sarah

2x = Natasha

4x = Richard

Sarah = 60 sweets

Natasha = 24 sweets

Richard = 48 sweets
