Quote:
What is the value of \(n\)?

1) The tens’ digit of \(11^n\) is 4
2) The hundreds’ digit of \(5^n\) is 6

Hi, the biggest give away is that it is not mentioned that n is integer.

If n is not an integer, there will always be a value of n for every integer..
for example \(11^n\) = 40, \(11^n=41\) or 141, 148 and so on, there will be a value of n, may be in decimals that will fit .
So, infinite values of n possible..
If i look for an integer value, \(5^4=625\) and \(11^4=14641\), so n=4 is a value..... but \(n=4.0000000001\) is another value
Thus insufficient
