If n is a natural number, then what is the sum of all <strong>DISTINCT</strong> remainders of 4^{n}+6^{n}+9^{n}+11^{n} when divided by 10 for various values of n?
- A. 3
- B. 4 ✓
- C. 6
- D. 7
Correct Answer: B. 4
Explanation
Evaluate for different n modulo 10: For n=1, 4+6+9+1 \equiv 20 \equiv 0. For n=2, 6+6+1+1 \equiv 14 \equiv 4. For n=3, 4+6+9+1 \equiv 0. The distinct remainders are 0 and 4. Their sum is 0 + 4 = 4.
