Comments
The answer for practice question 2 is C.
C. Because 72,74,76 and 78 raised to the fourth power all end with ‘6′ as the units digit.
However, 70 must be excluded, so the statement that it cannot be a multiple of 5 must be part of the information given, and;
71 must be excluded so the statement that Q is an even number is required.
My guess is C too.
my guess is c.
