The number $S$ is the result of the following sum: $1 + 10 + 19 + 28 + 37 +...+ 10^{2013}$ If one writes down the number $S$, how often does the digit `$5$' occur in the result?
Call a rational number [i]short[/i] if it has finitely many digits in its decimal expansion. For a positive integer $m$, we say that a positive integer $t$ is $m-$[i]tastic[/i] if there exists a number $c\in \{1,2,3,\ldots ,2017\}$ such that $\dfrac{10^t-1}{c\cdot m}$ is short, and such that $\dfrac{10^k-1}{c\cdot m}$ is not short for any $1\le k<t$. Let $S(m)$ be the set of $m-$tastic numbers. Consider $S(m)$ for $m=1,2,\ldots{}.$ What is the maximum number of elements in $S(m)$?
Find four different three-digit decimal numbers starting with the same digit, such that their sum is divisible by three of them.
The numbers $d_1, d_2,..., d_6$ are distinct digits of the decimal number system other than $6$. Prove that $d_1+d_2+...+d_6= 36$ if and only if $(d_1-6) (d_2-6) ... (d_6 -6) = -36$.
Calculate the sum of digit of the number $$9 \times 99 \times 9999 \times ... \times \underbrace{ 99...99}_{2^n}$$ where the number of nines doubles in each factor.
Suppose $\overline{a_1a_2...a_{2009}}$ is a $2009$-digit integer such that for each $i = 1,2,...,2007$, the $2$-digit integer $\overline{a_ia_{i+1}}$ contains $3$ distinct prime factors. Find $a_{2008}$ (Note: $\overline{xyz...}$ denotes an integer whose digits are $x, y,z,...$.)
Two positive integers $m$ and $n$ are called [i]similar [/i] if one of them can be obtained from the other one by swapping two digits (note that a $0$-digit cannot be swapped with the leading digit). Find the greatest integer $N$ such that N is divisible by $13$ and any number similar to $N$ is not divisible by $13$.
Determine all triples of nonzero decimal digits $(x,y,z)$ for which the equality $\sqrt{ \underbrace{xxx...x}_{2n}- \underbrace{yy...y}_{n}}= \underbrace{zzz...z}_{n}$ holds for at least two different natural numbers $n$.
Let $p > 10^9$ be a prime number such that $4p + 1$ is also prime. Prove that the decimal expansion of $\frac{1}{4p+1}$ contains all the digits $0,1, \ldots, 9$.
How many different numbers with $6$ digits and multiples of $45$ can be written by adding one digit to the left and one to the right of $2008$?
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 $2^{100}$ ?
What is the last digit of $777^{777}$?
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 $y$.
For each positive integer $k$, let $S(k)$ the sum of digits of $k$ in decimal system. Show that there is an integer $k$, with no $9$ in it's decimal representation, such that: $$S(2^{24^{2017}}k)=S(k)$$
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 prime number has the property that however its decimal digits are permuted, the obtained number is also prime. Prove that this number has at most three different digits. Also prove a stronger statement.
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 $2^{2007}$.
Does there exist an increasing arithmetic progression of (a) $11$ (b) $10000$ (c) infinitely many positive integers such that the sums of their digits in base $10$ also form an increasing arithmetic progression? (A Shapovalov)
For any positive integer $k$, denote the sum of digits of $k$ in its decimal representation by $S(k)$. Find all polynomials $P(x)$ with integer coefficients such that for any positive integer $n \geq 2016$, the integer $P(n)$ is positive and $$S(P(n)) = P(S(n)).$$ [i]Proposed by Warut Suksompong, Thailand[/i]
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.)
