Can be calculated efficiently with the Extended Euclidean algorithm.
The beauty of this algorithm is that because exponentiation grows really fast, there is no hope that we can ever learn all the digits of an exponential, as there is simply not enough time or memory for that. Therefore, a natural sub-question is if we can know some part of that number, and knowing the smallest digits is the most natural version of that question.
