Answer :

The remainder when 17^(77) is divided by 35 is 12

How can the remainder of dividing a large number be found?

The number being divided = 17^(77)

The number by which 17^(77) is divided = 35

Using a graphing calculator, we have;

[tex] \frac{17^{77}}{35} = V+ \frac{12}{35} [/tex]

Where V is a very large number quotient

From the above fraction, we have;

  • 17⁷⁷ ÷ 35 = V + 12/35

Expressing the above result using long division gives;

__V___ (Quotient)

35 (17⁷⁷)

____

12 (Remainder)
