Circle with numbers 0 to 6.

Investigate and explain the link between how numbers are recorded in modulus arithmetic and the units digit when the number is written in a different number base. Here is an example of a few randomly chosen numbers written as numbers modulo 7 and written in base 7). Investigate other number bases.

Some numbers in base ten 1 2 9 11 26 33 41 67 80 100
The same numbers modulo 7 1 2 2 4 5 5 6 4 3 2
The same numbers in base 7 1 2 12 14 35 45 56 124 143 202
