My friend, reaminder may be 5 or 2
 
all powers of 13 have last digita as 3,9,7,1 and they repeat
 
In case of 19 it is 9,1
by using AP we get, that 99th term is 7 in case of 13 and 93 term is 1 in case of 19.
adding them we get 8
Now i have a confusion here.
Either we subtract num by 3 or we see the remainder left when we divide it by 3
Check it out
May be both answers are wrong !!!!!!

hiiiiiiii
this question will be done using binomial theorem
we know that 12=4*3 so 124 will be divisible by 81 as 81=34
18=9*2 so 182 will be divisible by 81
 
1399+1993=(1+12)99+(1+18)93
on expanding all the terms in first expression which have powers of 12 more than or equal to 4 will be divisible by 81 and in second expression,terms with power of 18 more than or equal to 2 will be divisible by 81
 
let me denote nCr as C(n,r)
so we are left with the terms:
C(99,0)+C(99,1)*12+C(99,2)*12*12+C(99,3)*12*12*12+C(93,0)+C(93,1)*18
on taking all the 3's together we can see that C(99,2)*12*12+C(99,3)*12*12*12 is divisible by 81
so we are left with:
1+99*12+1+93*18
solve and divide by 81 and find the remainder.

Hey it was published in Maths today isnt it? Its also present in Das gupta.
Its ok, The answere is 29. It can easily be achieved as said by Rashmi , by using binomila theorm. All such type of questions are most convieniently solved by above approach.
I have solved it in october for october issue of maths today. Its solution also published in november issue.
