Detailed Solution

We find that 

7n=(103)n 7n=nC010nnC110n1×3+nCn110×(3)n1                                                                  +nCn(1)n3n

 7n=10k+(1)n3n

 

 7n=10k3n if  n  is  odd

 7n+3n=10k  if  n  is  odd

 

 7n+3n 1 is divisible by 10

Thus, 7n+3n  is divisible by 10 for all odd values of  n

If n  is even, 

    7n=10k+3n                                                       [ From (i) ]     7n+3n=10k+2×3n    

Let n=2m. Then 

 

3n=32m=(101)m3n=mC010mmC110m1+                                 +mCm1×10×(1)m1+mCm(1)m3n=10p±12×3n=2×10p±2

 2×3n  is not divisible by 10. 

 7n+3n is not divisible by 10, if  is even. 

Thus , is divisible by 10 for all odd natural numbers. 

Two digit odd natural numbers are:   11,13,15,,99.

Let their number be k. Then 

99=11+(k1)×22k=90k=45 

AUTER  We observe that   7n+3n is a multiple of 10 only for odd

 values. 

Two digit odd natural numbers are:   11,13,15,,99

Clearly, these are 45 numbers.
