If the units digit of integer n is greater than 2, what is the units digit of n?

(1) The units digit of n is the same as the units digit of n^2

(2) The units digit of n is the same as the units digit of n^3


solution according to OG:
in statement (2), 5 and 6 are the only numbers which, when cubed, will both have 5 or 6 respectively in their units digits.

BUT what about 4 and 9?

Thx,
fractal

Hi,
You are right.. That is an error in OE.
Cheers!

a 5,6 hence not sufficient.

b 4,5,6,9. hence not sufficient.

a+b 5 |6. hence not sufficient.

thus E.
