Answer:
there?
Unit place begins to repeat itself after every 4th time.
Unit place in 3^1 is same as unit place in 3^5.
3 and 243.
Thus, we can conclude that if higher power is divided by 4, the remainder will tell us which smallest power of 3 will share the same unit place's digit as that of big number.
So, 2016÷4=504 and remainder 0.
Thus, 3^2016 will have the same digit at its unit place as that of 3^4.
Thus, our answer is 1.
