Determine the sum of all positive integers $n$ that satisfy the following condition: when $6n + 1$ is written in base $10$, all its digits are equal.

Sunny wants to send some secret message to usjl. The secret message is a three digit number, where each digit is one digit from $0$ to $9$ (so $000$ is also possibly the secret message). However, when Sunny sends the message to usjl, at most one digit might be altered. Therefore, Sunny decides to send usjl a longer message so that usjl can decipher the message to get the original secret message Sunny wants to send. Sunny and usjl can communicate the strategy beforehand. Show that sending a $4$-digit message does not suffice. Also show that sending a $6$-digit message suffices. If it is deduced that sending a $c$-digit message suffices for some $c>6$, then partial credits may be awarded.

A natural number $N$ is written in its decimal representation . It is known that for each digit in this representation , this digit divides exactly into the number $N$ (the digit $0$ is not encountered). What is the maximum number of different digits which there can be in such a representation of $N$? (S . Fomin, Leningrad)

Let $a_1 < a_2 < ... < a_n$ be a sequence of natural numbers such that for $i < j$ the decimal representation of $a_i$ does not occur as the leftmost digits of the decimal representation of $a_j$ .

All $10$-digit numbers consisting of digits $1, 2$ and $3$ are written one under the other. Each number has one more digit added to the right. $1$, $2$ or $3$, and it turned out that to the number $111. . . 11$ added $1$ to the number $ 222. . . 22$ was assigned $2$, and the number $333. . . 33$ was assigned $3$. It is known that any two numbers that differ in all ten digits have different digits assigned to them. Prove that the assigned column of numbers matches with one of the ten columns written earlier.

Ana and Banana are playing a game. Initially, Ana secretly picks a number $1\leq A\leq 10^6$. In each subsequent turn of the game, Banana may pick a positive integer $B$, and Ana will reveal to him the most common digit in the product $A\cdot B$ (written in decimal notation). In the case when at least two digits are tied for being the most common, Ana will reveal all of them to Banana. For example, if $A\cdot B=2022$, Ana will tell Banana that the digit $2$ is the most common, while if $A\cdot B=5783783$, Ana will reveal that $3, 7$ and $8$ are the most common. Banana's goal is to determine with certainty the number $A$ after some number of turns. Does he have a winning strategy?

Given a positive integer $N$, define $u(N)$ as the number obtained by making the ones digit the left-most digit of $N$, that is, taking the last, right-most digit (the ones digit) and moving it leftwards through the digits of $N$ until it becomes the first (left-most) digit; for example, $u(2023) = 3202$. [b](1)[/b] Find a $6$-digit positive integer $N$ such that \[\frac{u(N)}{N} = \frac{23}{35}.\] [b](2)[/b] Prove that there is no positive integer $N$ with less than $6$ digits such that \[\frac{u(N)}{N} = \frac{23}{35}.\]
