How to prove that in every power of $3$, with natural exponent, the tens digit is an even number?

For example, $3 ^ 5 = 243$ and $4$ is even.

    If you look at integer multiplication, only a finite number of digits of any two numbers number can influence any digit in the result. Enumerate all cases for those.2010-12-11
