Cevap

The remainder when N2025N^{2025} is divided by 1717 is 11.
The number NN satisfies N≡−3(modlcm(5,7,9))N \equiv -3 \pmod{\text{lcm}(5,7,9)}, giving N=315−3=312N = 315 - 3 = 312. Reducing 312(mod17)312 \pmod{17} gives 66. By Fermat's Little Theorem, 616≡1(mod17)6^{16} \equiv 1 \pmod{17}, so 62025≡69(mod17)6^{2025} \equiv 6^9 \pmod{17}. Calculating 69(mod17)6^9 \pmod{17} yields −6(mod17)-6 \pmod{17}, which converts to positive remainder 17−6=1117 - 6 = 11.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Determine the value of the smallest positive integer NN
N=312N = 312
From the problem statement: N≡2≡−3(mod5)N \equiv 2 \equiv -3 \pmod 5, N≡4≡−3(mod7)N \equiv 4 \equiv -3 \pmod 7, and N≡6≡−3(mod9)N \equiv 6 \equiv -3 \pmod 9. Therefore, N+3N + 3 must be divisible by lcm(5,7,9)=315\text{lcm}(5, 7, 9) = 315. The smallest positive integer is N=315−3=312N = 315 - 3 = 312.
2
Reduce NN modulo 1717
N≡6(mod17)N \equiv 6 \pmod{17}
Dividing 312312 by 1717 gives 312=17×18+6312 = 17 \times 18 + 6, so 312≡6(mod17)312 \equiv 6 \pmod{17}.
3
Apply Fermat's Little Theorem to reduce the power
62025≡69(mod17)6^{2025} \equiv 6^9 \pmod{17}
Since 1717 is prime and gcd⁡(6,17)=1\gcd(6, 17) = 1, 616≡1(mod17)6^{16} \equiv 1 \pmod{17}. Expressing the exponent as 2025=16×126+92025 = 16 \times 126 + 9 yields 62025≡(616)126×69≡1126×69≡69(mod17)6^{2025} \equiv (6^{16})^{126} \times 6^9 \equiv 1^{126} \times 6^9 \equiv 6^9 \pmod{17}.
4
Evaluate 69(mod17)6^9 \pmod{17} and convert to positive remainder
Remainder is 1111
Computing successive powers modulo 1717: 62=36≡2(mod17)6^2 = 36 \equiv 2 \pmod{17}, 64≡22=4(mod17)6^4 \equiv 2^2 = 4 \pmod{17}, and 68≡42=16≡−1(mod17)6^8 \equiv 4^2 = 16 \equiv -1 \pmod{17}. Thus, 69=68×6≡(−1)×6=−6(mod17)6^9 = 6^8 \times 6 \equiv (-1) \times 6 = -6 \pmod{17}. Converting to a positive remainder gives −6+17=11-6 + 17 = 11.
