Would much appreciate help to figure the remainder of 10^100mod 1001

In summary, the conversation is about finding the remainder of 10^100 when divided by 1001. A user is struggling with understanding the solution and is asking for assistance. Another user suggests using the fact that 1000 ≡ -1 (mod 1001) to simplify the problem. The final solution is found to be -10 (mod 1001), and the user is asked to find a positive integer n that is congruent to -10 (mod 1001).

What is the remainder of 10^3 when divided by 1001?

firstly thanks very much for responding. in regards to ur question the remainder would be a 1000. i assume you are implying that this is also the remainder for 10^100 mod 1001 though i can't figure out why that is the case and ift its not too much trouble would you please explain cos I am too stupid to be frank to see the connection :)

I doubt that Wingeer is implying that. What he might be getting at is the following:
1000 ≡ -1 mod 1001
and
10100 = 10·(103)33

thanks for clarifyijng that SammyS. so to find the remainer from here using that result would the following be the correctway to do it.
10^3= 1000≡-1mod1001
therefore (10^3)^11=10^33=-1mod1001
(10^33)^3=10^99=1mod1001
therefore10^100=-10mod1001

from this would it be correct that the remainder is 10?


if anyone wants to answer this question for me i would sincerely appreciate it

It is correct. However I would have written it a bit different.
[tex]10^{1000}=10 \cdot (10^3)^{33} \equiv 10 \cdot (-1)^{33} = -10 (mod 1001)[/tex]

No, that's not the correct remainder since 10-10 (mod 1001).

What is the meaning of "10^100 mod 1001"?

10^100 mod 1001 is a mathematical expression that represents the remainder when 10^100 is divided by 1001. In other words, it is the number that is left over after dividing 10^100 by 1001.

Why is it important to find the remainder of 10^100 mod 1001?

Finding the remainder of 10^100 mod 1001 can help solve certain mathematical problems, such as finding the last digit of a large number or determining patterns in number sequences. It is also used in encryption algorithms and other applications in computer science.

What are the steps to calculate the remainder of 10^100 mod 1001?

To calculate the remainder of 10^100 mod 1001, you can use the exponentiation by squaring method. First, divide the exponent (100) by 2 and take the remainder (0). Then, square the base (10) and take the remainder when divided by 1001 (100). Repeat this process until the exponent is 1, and then multiply all the remainders together. In this case, the remainder of 10^100 mod 1001 is 1.

Is there a faster way to calculate the remainder of 10^100 mod 1001?

Yes, there are faster methods such as Euler's totient theorem or the Chinese remainder theorem. These methods use mathematical concepts and properties to simplify the calculation and reduce the number of steps needed.

What are some common applications of finding the remainder of 10^100 mod 1001?

Aside from its use in mathematics and computer science, finding the remainder of 10^100 mod 1001 is also used in fields such as cryptography, number theory, and coding theory. It has practical applications in data compression, error correction, and data security.
