Correct Answer: 0


Solution : To find the remainder when $252^{126}+244^{152}$ is divided by 10, we only need to consider the unit digit of each term in the sum.
The unit digit of $252^{126}$ is the same as the unit digit of 2 126 .
Divide 126 by 4 and get remainder = 2
So, the unit digit of $252^{126}$ is $2^2$ = 4
The unit digit of $244^{152}$ is the same as the unit digit of 4 152 .
If the power of 4 is even, the unit digit is 6.
So, the unit digit of $244^{152}$ is 6.
The sum of the unit digits = 4 + 6 = 10
The remainder when $252^{126}+244^{152}$ is divided by 10 = Remainder when 10 is divided by 10 = 0
So, the remainder is 0.
Hence, the correct answer is 0.
