Sagot :
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
The 79-digit number of interest can be formulated as a sum of shorter numbers whose remainders can be computed.
Expanded form
The expanded form of the number can be written as ...
a_44 = 01×10^78 +23×10^76 +45×10^74 +67×10^72 +89×10^70 +...
+10×10^68 +11×10^66 +... +43×10^2 +44×10^0
Powers of 10
Each number except the last is multiplied by a power of 10. Powers of 10 modulo 45 are ...
10 mod 45 = 10
100 mod 45 = 10
This lets us conclude that any positive power of 10 mod 45 is 10.
Parts of the sum
In short, all of the multiplication by powers of 10 can be collapsed to a single multiplication by 10. Hence, the mod 45 value of a_44 will be ...
a_44 mod 45 = (((01 +23 +45 +67 +89) +10 +11 +12 +... +43)×10 +44) mod 45
= (((01 +23 +45 +67 +89) mod 45 + sum(10 .. 43) mod 45)×10 +44) mod 45
= (((225 mod 45) +(901 mod 45))×10 +44) mod 45
= ((0 +1)×10 +44) mod 45
Final value
a_44 mod 45 = 54 mod 45 = 9

Additional comment
The result can be confirmed by a suitable calculator.

The sum of the 34 numbers from 10 to 43 is the product of their average value (10+43)/2 = 26.5 and their number, 34. (26.5×34) = 901.
