Lazy Morning Brain Warm-up #1 - Powers of 7

#Math #Numbers #Puzzle

What is the last digit of the decimal expansion of 7^64? What similar questions could we ask?

Lazy Morning Warm-ups are quick exercises, often found in my newsfeed. So lazy, sometimes I don't even get out of my jammies before recording. Can you solve the question in the thumbnail before seeing my solution in the video? Let's make #math more like finger painting! Finger painting is messy, it uses lots of paper, and it encourages you to try new things. And through that process, we discover new things about ourselves as well as about our art.

We use #Ramanujan as our thumbnail because his work epitomizes an intuitional approach to mathematics as opposed to rote memorization. Our use of #fractals illustrates the complex beauty derived from simple formulas.
