Thank you for your time! Hi,

I recently saw the following video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=3QnD2c4Xovk

In which at 4min and 35seconds, following math-e-magic happens:
16^54 mod 17
becomes (I get this part)
((3^24 mod 17)^54) mod 17
becomes
3^(24*54) mod 17 (I did not get this part)

Can I request you to please explain the last conversion?

Thank you for your time!
