Detailed Solution

We are given the expression  10759×31387×438129×39999
Consider the last digits of 107, 313, 438, and 399.
So, the last digits are 7, 3, 8, and 9.
We know that the last digit of 10759×31387×438129×39999 is same as the last digit of 759×387×8129×999.........(I) Also, the cyclicity of 7, 3, 8, and 9 are 4, 4, 4, and 2 respectively.
Consider the cyclicity charts of 7, 3, 8, and 9
71=7, 73= 343, 72= 49. 74= 2401
Thus, digit in the unit’s place of 74=1
Consider the power 59 of 7. We can write 59=4×14+3
759=74×14+3=7414.73l
Therefore, last digit of  (7)59  = last digit of  7414 × last digit of 73
As the last digit of  74  is 1, the last digit of any power of 74  is 1.
Also, as seen from the cyclicity chart, last digit of  73  is 3……..(1)
Similarly, with the help of cyclicity, we get the last digits of  34,84,92  as follows:
Last digit of 34 is 1.
Last digit of 84 is 6.
Last digit of 92  is 1.
Also,
(3)87=(3)4×21+4=(34)21.33
(8)129=(8)4×32+1=(84)14.81
(9)99=(9)2×49+1=(92)49.91
Thus, last digit of  (3)87=7..........(2)
Last digit of  (8)129=8..........(3)
Last digit of  (9)99=9..........(4)
Thus, from (I), (1), (2), (3), and (4), we have10759×31387×438129×39999
= last digit of 3×7×8×93×7×8×9
= last digit of(3×7)×last digit of 8×9
= last digit of 21× last digit of 72
=1×2
=2
Hence the last digit of  10759×31387×438129×39999   is 2.
