number theory - How to get the result using Pepin's test

How do I achieve this result via Pepin's test by using Euler's Theorem and such to simplify 3231 and get the desired congruence of 10,324,303?



3^{(F_5-1)/2} = 3^{2^{31}} = 3^{2,146,483,648} \equiv 10,324,303 ≢ -1 (mod 4,294,967,297)



Where F_5 is Fermat's 6th number 2^{32}+1



Using powermod functions gives the desired result for a^{b} mod(m) but I'd like to do this one by hand to better understand how powermod simplifies.



Thanks!
