Instead of analyzing 7 1 0 3 ( m o d 2 5 ) , let's analyze 7 n ( m o d 5 0 ) for small n .
7 1 ( m o d 5 0 ) ≡ 7 ( m o d 5 0 )
7 2 ( m o d 5 0 ) ≡ − 1 ( m o d 5 0 )
7 3 ( m o d 5 0 ) ≡ − 7 ( m o d 5 0 )
7 4 ( m o d 5 0 ) ≡ 1 ( m o d 5 0 )
7 5 ( m o d 5 0 ) ≡ 7 ( m o d 5 0 )
7 6 ( m o d 5 0 ) ≡ − 1 ( m o d 5 0 )
7 7 ( m o d 5 0 ) ≡ − 7 ( m o d 5 0 )
7 8 ( m o d 5 0 ) ≡ 1 ( m o d 5 0 )
There is a clear pattern. 7 4 k + n ( m o d 5 0 ) ≡ 7 n ( m o d 5 0 ) , where k ∈ Z + .
From this pattern, we can conclude that
7 1 0 3 ( m o d 5 0 ) ≡ 7 3 ( m o d 5 0 ) .
We can calculate that 7 3 = 3 4 3 , and 3 4 3 ( m o d 2 5 ) = 1 8 .

7 1 0 3 ≡ 4 9 5 1 × 7 ( m o d 2 5 ) ≡ ( − 1 ) 5 1 × 7 ( m o d 2 5 ) ≡ − 7 ( m o d 2 5 ) ≡ 1 8 ( m o d 2 5 )
