To determine the remainder of the division of 3302 + 7200 with 5.



Is it correct if I find the remainder of the division separately for 3302 and 7200 and then add the two of the remainders?

In general, you would add the remainders of $3^{302}/5$ and $7^{200}/5$ modulo $5$.

    The remainder of 3^302 mod 5 is 4 and the remainder of 7^200 mod 5 is 1.But 5 mod 5 is zero so the remainder is 0?

The last digit of the powers of $3$ are $3,9,7,1,3,9,..$ they are cyclic and repeating every four times, so the last digit of $3^{302}$ is the same as the last digit of $3^{302 (mod 4)}=3^2=9$.

Same argument for the last digit of the powers of $7$: $7,9,3,1,7,9...$. Therefore the last digit of $7^{200}$ is the same as the last digit of $7^0=1$.

Thus the last digit of $3^{302}+7^{200}$ is $9+1=10=0 mod 5$

        $begin{align}bmod 5!: & 3^{302}+7^{200}\ equiv & 9^{151}+49^{100}\ equiv & (-1)^{151}!+(-1)^{100}\ equiv & {-1} + 1 end{align}$
