You can put this solution on YOUR website!
so your saying:
100/n=x and the last digit of x will be the remainder of said number
,, if n=10
100/n=x
x=10 with 0 being remainder that works
,,
1/n=y
y=.1 with 1 bing the last digit that doesnt work
,,
-1/n=z
z=-.1 which has same issue that doesnt work
,,
25/n=q
q=2.5 where 5 is the remainder for which this works
,,
2/n=r
r=.2 where 2 is the remainder of nothing doesnt work
,, this seems to work for all numbers greater than or equal to 10 or lesthan or equal to -10 if n=10
but there are too many numbers to keep guessing n checking good luck theres just not enough information to solve
