Apr 17, 2018 at 5:38 comment added fgrieu Hint: when multiplying two $n$-digit numbers by hand, how many times do you use an elementary single-digit multiplication? About how many for manually reducing the result modulo another $n$-digit number (slightly larger than the two ones multiplied)? How many such modular multiplications are needed for the textbook RSA operation $x\to x^e\bmod N$ with $e=2^k+1$ and small $k$? For $x\to x^d\bmod N$ with $d$ a corresponding private exponent?
