(a) Find the last two digits of $9*5*3$.
(b) Find the last two digits of $1^{2^3}$. (By convention, exponent towers are evaluated from the top down, so $1^{2^3} = 1^{(2^3)}$.)

     9 • 5 • 3 = 135       Last two digits are 35    

 

     1^(2^3) = 18 = 1     One raised to any positive power is still one,
