To find the tens place, we need to find the remainder when this number is divided by 100.
7281100∣r=((74)70×71)100∣r=((..49×..49)70×71)100∣r=((..01)70×07)100∣r=..07
Similarly, 3264100∣r=(34)66100∣r=(32×32)66100∣r=(09×09)66100∣r=8166100∣r=..81
(66 is of the form 5n+1, and the tens digit of 81n repeats after a cycle of 5)
Answer is the tens digit of 07×81=..6.
