REMAINDER WHEN 17 POWER 23 IS DIVIDED BY 16

In this section, you will learn how to find remainder when 17 power 23 is divided by 16. 

Let us take exponents 0, 1, 2, 3,  ....one by one for 17. 

For example, if we take exponent 0 for 17, we get

17⁰  =  1

Here, 1 is less than the divisor 16 and 1 can not be divided by 16.  

If the dividend is less than the divisor, then the dividend itself has to be considered as 'Remainder'.

So, if 17⁰  is divided by 16, the remainder is 1.

If the dividend is greater than the divisor, then we have to divide the dividend by the divisor and get remainder. 

Let us deal our problem in this way. 

When we look at the above table carefully, 17⁰ is divided by 16, the remainder is 1.

Again we get remainder 1 for the exponent 1.

Next we get remainder 1 for the exponent 2 and so on.  

So, we get remainder 1, for all the exponents we take for 17. 

Therefore, when 17²³ is divided by 16, the remainder will be 1.
