It is a 3.
Look at the ones digit of successive powers of 7; this need only be done by considering the multiplication of the ones digit of the previous power of 7 by 7 (as this is the only calculation that affects the ones digit as each successive power of 7 is the previous power multiplied by 7) and taking the result modulus 10 (to extract the new ones digit as any excess over 9 is carried into the tens column):
7¹ → 7 mod 10 = 7
7² → (7×7) mod 10 = 9
7³ → (9×7) mod 10 = 3
7⁴ → (3×7) mod 10 = 1
7⁵ → (1×7) mod 10 = 7
At this point the pattern of the ones digit will obviously repeat the sequence of the four digits {7, 9, 3, 1}.
To find the ones digit of any power of 7, take that power modulus 4 use that digit from the four digit sequence. Note that when taking the number modulus 4, the result will be in the range 0-3; when the result is 0, use the 4th digit from the sequence.
2015 mod 4 = 3
→ the third digit of {7, 9, 3, 1}, which is 3, will be the ones digit of 7²⁰¹⁵.

How many significant figures in 0.0410?
There are three significant figures in 0.0410.To find the number of significant figures:Starting at the left hand end of the number find the first non-zero digit;Count all the digits going right until all that is left is zero digits;If the first (non-zero) digit was AFTER a decimal point then continue counting all the zeros.The reason for step 3 is that trailing zeros after a decimal point are not normally written, so if they have been written they must be significant. In this case:First non-zero digit is 4;Count 2 digits (to reach the 0 after the 1);The 4 was after a decimal point so continue counting the written zeros - an extra 1 digit, making a total of 3.
