Step-by-step explanation:

Last digit of  14  is  1.  

Last digit of  24  is  6.  

Last digit of  3  4  is  1.  

Last digit of  4  4  is  6.  

Last digit of  5  4  is  5  .  

Last digit of  6  4  is  6.  

Last digit of  7  4  is  1.  

Last digit of  8  4  is  6.  

Last digit of  9  4  is  1.  

Last digit of  10  4  is  0.  

Sum of all the last digits upto 10 is  1+6+1+6+5+6+1+6+1+0=   33.  

Now, last digit of  114  or  214  will be the same as the last digit of  14  (you'll understand why if you binomially expand  214  as  (20+1)4 ).

Similarly, last digit of  124  or  32  4  will be the same as the last digit of  24  (you'll understand why if you binomially expand  32  4  as  (30+2)4 ).

So, the sum of last digits for numbers 1-10, 11-20, 21-30 etc. will be 33.

So, sum of last digits upto  2010  is  201∗33=6633  

Now, sum of last digits from 2011 to 2017 is  1+6+1+6+5+6+1=26.  

So, total sum of last digits is=  6633+26=6659.  

Last digit of the sum is  9.Last digit of  14  is  1.  

Last digit of  24  is  6.  

Last digit of  3  4  is  1.  

Last digit of  4  4  is  6.  

Last digit of  5  4  is  5  .  

Last digit of  6  4  is  6.  

Last digit of  7  4  is  1.  

Last digit of  8  4  is  6.  

Last digit of  9  4  is  1.  

Last digit of  10  4  is  0.  

Sum of all the last digits upto 10 is  1+6+1+6+5+6+1+6+1+0=   33.  

Now, last digit of  114  or  214  will be the same as the last digit of  14  (you'll understand why if you binomially expand  214  as  (20+1)4 ).

Similarly, last digit of  124  or  32  4  will be the same as the last digit of  24  (you'll understand why if you binomially expand  32  4  as  (30+2)4 ).

So, the sum of last digits for numbers 1-10, 11-20, 21-30 etc. will be 33.

So, sum of last digits upto  2010  is  201∗33=6633  

Now, sum of last digits from 2011 to 2017 is  1+6+1+6+5+6+1=26.  

So, total sum of last digits is=  6633+26=6659.  

Last digit of the sum is  9.
