When j=0, 2, it is known that calculations of #Q_a(x;4,j) are simple, and we can get their natural densities unconditionally. On the contrary, when j=1, 3, the distribution properties of Q_a(x;4,j) are rather complicated. In this paper, which is a sequel of our previous paper (part I), under the assumption of Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, we determine completely the natural densities of #Q_a(x;4,j) for j=1, 3.19 pagesNumber Theory11N05, 11N25, 11R18On a distribution property of the residual order of a (mod p), IItext
