Answer:
We know that
48 = (-1) (mod7)
=) 48^567 = (-1)^567 (mod7)
=) 48^567 = (-1) (mod7) = 6 (mod7)
So the required remainder is 6.
Method 2
Here gcd(48, 7) =1 and 7 is prime
So by Fermat's Little Theorem
48^6 = 1 (mod 7)
=) (48^6)^94 = 1^94 (mod7)
=) 48^564 = 1 (mod7)
=) 48^564 . 48^3 = 48^3 (mod7)
=) 48^567 = (-1)^3 (mod7)
=) 48^567 = (-1) (mod7) = 6 (mod7)
So the required remainder is 6.

Answer:
remainder is 6
Step-by-step explanation:
48^37
here 8 cyclicity is 2
So, divide 37 by 2 gives remainder 1
Now, 48^1 =48
Hence, 48/7 = 6 as remainder
