comment Solving $(2x-1)\ln5=\ln2 + x\ln3$ for $x$
This is a linear equation in $x$. Can you solve it for $x$ if you treat the logarithms as constants? If yes, then look up the logarithm laws to simplify the expression for $x$.

comment Last 2 numbers of the product of divisors
In the comment above, I used Euler's theorem and the binomial theorem.

comment Last 2 numbers of the product of divisors
@darenn I used that $$21^{(53^3)}=21^{\displaystyle{\sum_{k=0}^3\binom{3}{k}40^k13^{3-k}}}\equiv_{10‌​0}21^{(13^3)}$$ and $$41^{61}=41^{\phi(100)+21}\equiv_{100}41^{21}.$$

comment Last 2 numbers of the product of divisors
@darenn Yes, I admit I used some help with the calculations. However, if necessary, all of this could be done with pen and paper, and some time.

comment Proving that every $2\times 2$ matrix $A$ with $A^2 = -I$ is similar to a given matrix
@David It was an ansatz; it seemed like two degrees of freedom would suffice. Naturally, to simplify as much as possible, I first tried $$P=\pmatrix{0&A\\B&0},$$ but this implied that $A=B=0$. Seeing where it went wrong, I chose $$P=\pmatrix{1&A\\B&0}$$ instead.
