There are exactly positive integers with such that the base- integer is divisible by (where is in base ten). What is the sum of the digits of ?
Solution 1
, if even then . If odd then so . Now so but is too small so . ~OronSH ~mathkiddus ~andliu766
Solution 2
Clearly, is either even or odd. If is even, let .
Thus, one solution is for some integer , or .
What if is odd? Then let :
This simply states that is odd. Thus, the other solution is for some integer , or .
We now simply must count the number of integers between and , inclusive, that are mod or mod . Note that the former case comprises even numbers only while the latter is only odd; thus, there is no overlap and we can safely count the number of each and add them.
In the former case, we have the numbers ; this list is equivalent to , which comprises numbers. In the latter case, we have the numbers , which comprises numbers. There are numbers in total, so our answer is .
~Technodoggo
Solution 3
Note that is to be divisible by , which means that is divisible by .
If , then is not divisible by .
If , then is not divisible by .
If , then is not divisible by .
If , then is divisible by .
If , then is not divisible by .
If , then is not divisible by .
If , then is divisible by .
If , then is divisible by .
Therefore, for every values of , of them will make divisible by . Therefore, since is divisible by , values of , but this includes , which does not satisfy the given inequality. Therefore, the answer is ~Tacos_are_yummy_1
Solution 4
We need take away one because is out of range, so
