Which kind of question is asking you to calculate the value of such numericals?

What are the other options? Does the units digit change within the bracket?

7^9 has a units digit cyclicality of 1. Here, the answer that you given has a units of 7, thus it is the answer. Is there any other option having a units digit of 7?

*cyclicality of 7

The given series is in GP with number of terms as 9. So (7^9 -1)/ (7-1) = 6725601
Solve the equation, you will get 7^9

Would this help? Seems it was discussed already: if-r-and-s-are-positive-integers-is-r-s-an-integer-128005.html

For the first statement s cannot be greater than r. If every factor of s is also factor of r, then . Your example, (r=10 and s=20), is not possible, because 4 is a factor of s but not a factor of r.
