it can be sum up as 5+

it can be sum up as

5+ 5(5^55-1)/4
= (15+5^56)/4

so remainder will be

R of (15+5^56)/(4*13)

so final ans is

16

Ans = 12

Soln - Pattern method :
5^1| 13 = 5. 5^2| 13 = 12.
5^3| 13 = 8. 5^4| 13 = 1.
5^1| 13 = 5......... Pattern repeats after 4 times.

Original eqn [diving each term individually by 13] = (5+12+8+1)+ (5+12+8+1)+ ........ 13 times + (5+12+8)
                                                                                        = (5+12+8+1) * 13 + (5+12+8) / 13
                                                                              Rem = 12
