Notice that:

1 1 2 m o d 100 = 21 11^2 \mod 100 =21 ,

1 1 3 m o d 100 = 31 11^3 \mod 100 =31 ,

1 1 4 m o d 100 = 41 11^4\mod 100=41

etc \dots \text { etc }

1 1 2018 = 1 1 2010 + 8 m o d 100 = ( 01 ) ( 81 ) = 81 m o d 100 the last two digits are 81. \implies 11^{2018} = 11^{2010+8} \mod 100 = (01)(81)= 81 \mod 100 \implies \text { the last two digits are 81. }
