67
Answer: Option
Explanation:

(xn + 1) will be divisible by (x + 1) only when n is odd.

(6767 + 1) will be divisible by (67 + 1)

(6767 + 1) + 66, when divided by 68 will give 66 as remainder.

Find out unity digit of 67^67....i e unit digit is 3
n 3+67=70
and when divide by 68 remainder 2...ie 68-2=66

I support deepak but in additional I would like you to know of this 67^67 units digit is to b found out. By cyclicity of numbers concept 67/4 remainder 3. So units digit is units digit of 7^3=**3 so adding 3+67=70.

When divide by 68 remainder 2. Ie 68-2=66.
