In a bank, only the manager knows the safe's combination, which is a five-digit number. To support this combination, each of the bank's ten employees is given a five-digit number. Each of these backup numbers has in one of the five positions the same digit as the combination and in the other four positions a different digit than the one in that position in the combination. Backup numbers are: $07344$, $14098$, $27356$, $36429$, $45374$, $52207$, $63822$, $70558$, $85237$, $97665$. What is the combination to the safe?

1980 All Soviet Union Mathematical Olympiad, 303

The number $x$ from $[0,1]$ is written as an infinite decimal fraction. Having rearranged its first five digits after the point we can obtain another fraction that corresponds to the number $x_1$. Having rearranged five digits of $x_k$ from $(k+1)$-th till $(k+5)$-th after the point we obtain the number $x_{k+1}$. a) Prove that the sequence $x_i$ has limit. b) Can this limit be irrational if we have started with the rational number? c) Invent such a number, that always produces irrational numbers, no matter what digits were transposed.

Alberto wants to invite Ximena to his house. Since Alberto knows that Ximena is amateur to mathematics, instead of pointing out exactly which Transantiago buses serve him, he tells him: [i]the numbers of the buses that take me to my house have three digits, where the leftmost digit is not null, furthermore, these numbers are multiples of $13$, and the second digit of them is the average of the other two.[/i] What are the bus lines that go to Alberto's house?

A positive integer is called [i]vaivém[/i] when, considering its representation in base ten, the first digit from left to right is greater than the second, the second is less than the third, the third is bigger than the fourth and so on alternating bigger and smaller until the last digit. For example, $2021$ is [i]vaivém[/i], as $2 > 0$ and $0 < 2$ and $2 > 1$. The number $2023$ is not [i]vaivém[/i], as $2 > 0$ and $0 < 2$, but $2$ is not greater than $3$. a) How many [i]vaivém[/i] positive integers are there from $2000$ to $2100$? b) What is the largest [i]vaivém[/i] number without repeating digits? c) How many distinct $7$-digit numbers formed by all the digits $1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6$ and $7$ are [i]vaivém[/i]?

Below the standard representation of a positive integer $n$ is the representation understood by $n$ in the decimal system, where the first digit is different from $0$. Everyone positive integer n is now assigned a number $f(n)$ by using the standard representation of $n$ last digit is placed before the first. Examples: $f(1992) = 2199$, $f(2000) = 200$. Determine the smallest positive integer $n$ for which $f(n) = 2n$ holds.

2017 Dutch Mathematical Olympiad, 1

We consider positive integers written down in the (usual) decimal system. Within such an integer, we number the positions of the digits from left to right, so the leftmost digit (which is never a $0$) is at position $1$. An integer is called [i]even-steven[/i] if each digit at an even position (if there is one) is greater than or equal to its neighbouring digits (if these exist). An integer is called [i]oddball[/i] if each digit at an odd position is greater than or equal to its neighbouring digits (if these exist). For example, $3122$ is [i]oddball[/i] but not [i]even-steven[/i], $7$ is both [i]even-steven[/i] and [i]oddball[/i], and $123$ is neither [i]even-steven[/i] nor [i]oddball[/i]. (a) Prove: every oddball integer greater than $9$ can be obtained by adding two [i]oddball [/i] integers. (b) Prove: there exists an oddball integer greater than $9$ that cannot be obtained by adding two [i]even-steven[/i] integers.

The natural numbers are written in succession, forming a sequence of digits$$12345678910111213141516171819202122232425262728293031\ldots$$Determine how many digits the natural number has that contributes to this sequence with the digit in position $10^{2000}$. Clarification: The natural number that contributes to the sequence with the digit in position $10$ has $2$ digits, because it is $10$; The natural number that contributes to the sequence with the digit at position $10^2$ has $2$ digits, because it is $55$.

How many three-digit numbers $\underline{abc}$ have the property that when it is added to $\underline{cba}$, the number obtained by reversing its digits, the result is a palindrome? (Note that $\underline{cba}$ is not necessarily a three-digit number since before reversing, $c$ may be equal to $0$.)
