Check whether 6^n can end with the digit 0 for any natural number n.
Here, n is a natural number and let ends with digit 0
∴ is divisible by 5.
But the prime factors of 6 are 2 and 3. i.e., 6 = 2 × 3
=> =
i.e., In the prime factorisation of , there is no factor 5.
So, by the fundamental theorem of Arithmetic, every composite number can be expressed as a product of primes and this factorisation is unique apart from the order in which the prime factorisation occurs.
∴ Our assumption that ends with digit 0, is wrong.
Thus, there does not exist any natural number n of which ends with zero
