\bf\huge{\underline{\underline{Question}}}

Check whether 6^n can end with the digit 0 for any natural number n.

\bf\huge{\underline{\underline{Solution}}}

Here, n is a natural number and let {6^n} ends with digit 0

{6^n} is divisible by 5.

But the prime factors of 6 are 2 and 3. i.e., 6 = 2 × 3

=> {6^n} = {(2 × 3)^n}

i.e., In the prime factorisation of {6^n}, 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 {6^n} ends with digit 0, is wrong.

Thus, there does not exist any natural number n of which {6^n} ends with zero
