. We're sorry about the hassle.
Could you please explain the last part, with the Chinese remainder theorem? Are there any nice rules about multiplication with the mod N? Seems like people often factor it in order to use Eulers theorem, so it would be nice with an explanation or link to an explanation.
Cheers

You can read this or this . But, sometime, I prefer to use the second one. For the case above, N ≡ 0 ( m o d 4 ) or N = 4 u and N ≡ 1 6 ( m o d 2 5 ) .
4 u ≡ 1 6 ( m o d 2 5 ) u ≡ 4 ( m o d 2 5 ) or u = 2 5 v + 4 .
After subtituting u = 2 5 v + 4 , we have N = 1 0 0 v + 1 6 , it's mean N ≡ 1 6 ( m o d 1 0 0 ) .
By the way, on your example, 166 is not congruent to 0 mod 4 .

Let N = 2 0 1 6 2 0 1 6 2 0 1 6 2 0 1 6 2 0 1 6 .
Finding the last two digits of a number is equivalent to determining the remind of a number modulo 1 0 0 . Since g cd ( 2 0 1 6 , 1 0 0 ) = 1 , we can't use Euler's theorem directly. Instead, we need to determine the remind of N modulo 4 and modulo 2 5 .
Due to 2 0 1 6 is a multiple of 4 , according to the rules of modular arithmetic, hence 2 0 1 6 n ≡ 0 ( m o d 4 ) for n ≥ 1 . Furthermore, we will find the residue of N modulo 2 5 . Note that g cd ( 2 0 1 6 , 2 5 ) = 1 , so, we can use Euler's theorem. To avoid confusion, we will use the original question.

Now, we have: 2 0 1 6 2 0 1 6 2 0 1 6 2 0 1 6 2 0 1 6 ≡ ⎩ ⎨ ⎧ 0 ( m o d 4 ) 1 6 ( m o d 2 5 )
Using Chinese Remainder theorem, we will get 2 0 1 6 2 0 1 6 2 0 1 6 2 0 1 6 2 0 1 6 ≡ 1 6 ( m o d 1 0 0 )
