The last two digits follow a pattern:
Number Last two digits
21 21
21^2 41
21^3 61
21^4 81
21^5 01
21^6 21
21^7 41
and so on.
The last digit is always 1, and the second to last goes through the
sequence
2, 4, 6, 8, 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 0,
So every 5th power gives the same final two digits.
Powers of 5, 10, 15, ......, 90, 95, 100 will all have 01 as the
final two digits.
The last two digits of 21^100 are 01
