unit digit is 9 as the power is odd ( coz except 1! all other factorials are even)

Will i ever be able to make it

ans:1

(38^16!)^1777=(34+4)^16!^1777/17

4^16!^1777/17

16! is divisbile by 4 so (4^2)4k^1777/17

(16+1)^4k^1777/17..

so 1 remainder.

5789^(1!+2!+3!-------+1000!)has the unit digit of ?
after 5!,,each term will end with 0..so we'll add 1!+2!+3!+4!= 1+2+6+24=33

and last two digits of 5!+6!-----9!=80..adding 80+33=13..

5789^13/10

(5780+9)^13/10

9^13/10=9 unit digit
