John had to solve a math problem in the class. While cleaning the blackboard, he accidentally erased a part of his problem as well: the text that remained on board was $37 \cdot(72 + 3x) = 14**45$, where $*$ marks an erased digit. Show that John can still solve his problem, knowing that $x$ is an integer
How many digits are there in the decimal expression of $2^{100}$ ?
The cost of $1000$ grams of chocolate is $x$ dollars and the cost of $1000$ grams of potatoes is $y$ dollars, the numbers $x$ and $y$ are positive integers and have not more than $2$ digits. Mother said to Maria to buy $200$ grams of chocolate and $1000$ grams of potatoes that cost exactly $N$ dollars. Maria got confused and bought $1000$ grams of chocolate and $200$ grams of potatoes that cost exactly $M$ dollars ($M >N$). It turned out that the numbers $M$ and $N$ have no more than two digits and are formed of the same digits but in a different order. Find $x$ and $y$.
We call a positive integer $n$ whose all digits are distinct [i]bright[/i], if either $n$ is a one-digit number or there exists a divisor of $n$ which can be obtained by omitting one digit of $n$ and which is bright itself. Find the largest bright positive integer. (We assume that numbers do not start with zero.)
Alex writes the sixteen digits $2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 6, 6, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 9$ side by side in any order and then places a colon somewhere between two digits, so that a division task arises. Can the result of this calculation be $2$?
We have $0\le x_i<b$ for $i=0,1,\ldots,n$ and $x_n>0,x_{n-1}>0$. If $a>b$, and $x_nx_{n-1}\ldots x_0$ represents the number $A$ base $a$ and $B$ base $b$, whilst $x_{n-1}x_{n-2}\ldots x_0$ represents the number $A'$ base $a$ and $B'$ base $b$, prove that $A'B<AB'$.
a) Prove that if the sum of the non-zero digits $a_1, a_2, ... , a_n$ is a multiple of $27$, then it is possible to permute these digits in order to obtain an $n$-digit number that is a multiple of $27$. b) Prove that if the non-zero digits $a_1, a_2, ... , a_n$ have the property that every ndigit number obtained by permuting these digits is a multiple of $27$, then the sum of these digits is a multiple of $27$
A natural number $N$ is [i]good [/i] if its digits are $1, 2$, or $3$ and all $2$-digit numbers are made up of digits located in consecutive positions of $N$ are distinct numbers. Is there a good number of $10$ digits? Of $11$ digits?
Prove that there is a unique positive integer formed only by the digits $2$ and $5$, which has $ 2007$ digits and is divisible by $2^{2007}$.
Find some nine-digit number $N$, consisting of different digits, such that among all the numbers obtained from $N$ by crossing out seven digits, there would be no more than one prime. Prove that the number found is correct. (If the number obtained by crossing out the digits starts at zero, then the zero is crossed out.)
Two three-digit numbers are given. The hundreds digit of each of them is equal to the units digit of the other. Find these numbers if their difference is $297$ and the sum of digits of the smaller number is $23$.
Determine all three-digit numbers N such that $N^2$ has six digits and so that the sum of the number formed by the first three digits of $N^2$ and the number formed by the latter three digits of $N^2$ equals $N$.
Which positive integers satisfy the following three conditions? a) The number consists of at least two digits. b) The last digit is not zero. c) Inserting a zero between the last two digits yields a number divisible by the original number.
Does there exist a quadratic trinomial $p(x)$ with integer coefficients such that, for every natural number $n$ whose decimal representation consists of digits $1$, $p(n)$ also consists only of digits $1$?
How many three-digit positive integers have an odd number of even digits? $\textbf{(A) }150\qquad\textbf{(B) }250\qquad\textbf{(C) }350\qquad\textbf{(D) }450\qquad\textbf{(E) }550$
Show that for any $n \not \equiv 0 \pmod{10}$ there exists a multiple of $n$ not containing the digit $0$ in its decimal expansion.
Let $x$ be an integer of $n$ digits, all equal to $ 1$. Show that if $x$ is prime, then $n$ is also prime.
A positive integer $N$ is called [i]northern[/i] if for each digit $d > 0$, there exists a divisor of $N$ whose last digit is $d$. How many [i]northern [/i] numbers less than $2016$ are there with the fewest number of divisors as possible?
Exists a positive integer $n$ such that the number $\underbrace{1...1}_{n \,ones} 2 \underbrace{1...1}_{n \, ones}$ is a prime number?
For a fixed $k$ with $4 \le k \le 9$ consider the set of all positive integers with $k$ decimal digits such that each of the digits from $1$ to $k$ occurs exactly once. Show that it is possible to partition this set into two disjoint subsets such that the sum of the cubes of the numbers in the first set is equal to the sum of the cubes in the second set.
We call the [i]tribi [/i] of a positive integer $k$ (denoted $T(k)$) the number of all pairs $11$ in the binary representation of $k$. e.g $$T(1)=T(2)=0,\, T(3)=1, \,T(4)=T(5)=0,\,T(6)=1,\,T(7)=2.$$ Calculate $S_n=\sum_{k=1}^{2^n}T(K)$.
Consider the integers formed using the digits $0,1,2,3,4,5,6$, without repetition. Find the largest multiple of $55$. Justify your answer.
Find all natural numbers $n$ the product of whose decimal digits is $n^2-10n-22$.
Find all natural numbers $n$ with the following property: Given the decimal writing of $n$, adding a few digits one can obtain the decimal writing of $1996n$.
A natural number of five digits is called [i]Ecuadorian [/i]if it satisfies the following conditions: $\bullet$ All its digits are different. $\bullet$ The digit on the far left is equal to the sum of the other four digits. Example: $91350$ is an Ecuadorian number since $9 = 1 + 3 + 5 + 0$, but $54210$ is not since $5 \ne 4 + 2 + 1 + 0$. Find how many Ecuadorian numbers exist.
