Abstract

We try to improve a problem asked in an Indian Math Olympiad. We give a brief overview of the work done in [4] and [5] where the authors have found a periodic sequence and the length of its period, all inspired from an Olympiad problem. The main goal of the paper is to improve the main result in [4].
