[b]p2.[/b] The digital sum $D(n)$ of a positive integer $n$ is defined recursively by:
$D(n) = n$ if $1 \le n \le 9$
$D(n) = D(a_0 + a_1 + ... + a_m)$ if $n>9$
where $a_0 , a_1 ,..,a_m$ are all the digits of $n$ expressed in base ten. (For example, $D(959) = D(26) = D(8) = 8$.) Prove that $D(n \times 1234)= D(n)$ fcr all positive integers $n$ .
