Transcribed Image Text:**Computation Task: Modular Arithmetic and Fraction Periodicity**
1. **Objective:** Compute the order of 10 modulo 13.
2. **Objective:** Compute the period of the fraction 1/13.
### Explanation:
**1. Order of 10 modulo 13:**
- The order of a number \( a \) modulo \( n \) is the smallest positive integer \( k \) such that \( a^k \equiv 1 \pmod{n} \). Here, you need to find the smallest \( k \) for which \( 10^k \equiv 1 \pmod{13} \).
**2. Period of the fraction 1/13:**
- To find the period, perform long division to express \( 1/13 \) as a decimal. The period is the length of the repeating sequence in the decimal expansion of this fraction.
