REM(4^(2a+1+b))/10
Means we have to find last digit of the expression.So rephrasing the question
What is the last digit of 4^(2a+1+b)
(1).
a=1
Break the expression as 4^2a * 4^1 * 4^b.
b is unknown hence INSUFFICIENT
(2).
b=2
4^2a * 4^1 * 4^b.
If you can observe the expression 4^2a, you will see that this will always give last digit as '6' you can try out numbers if you want.
So knowing the expression and value of b last digit can be calculated and hence the remainder can also be calculated.
Hence
