Suppose $a$ is a positive integer which is coprime to 10. Show that $$a^{2001} \equiv a \pmod {1000}$$
I know it has something to do with the Fermat-Euler theorem.
$\phi(1000) = 400$ and $a^{400}\equiv 1 \pmod {1000}$
However, I do not know how to proceed from here to show the congruence
$a^{2000}≡a^{5\cdot400}=\left(a^{400}\right)^5≡1 (\mod 1000)$ therefore $^{2001}≡^{2000}≡[1]≡$
