Answer:
We know that any number is multiplied by 5 or 10 or by the multiples of 10 ends with zero.
So here the number 8 has factors 1,2,4 and 8.
It does not contain 5 and 10 as prime factors
8n = (2 X 4)n doesn’t have 5 in its prime factorization
Hence, 8n cannot end with the digit 0

Explanation:
let the n be 1,2,3,4..
8^1= 8,
8^2= 64,
8^3= 512,
8^4= 4096
...
Therefore we conclude that, in the above process, the number ends only with even number
and 5 is an odd number.
