Problem
The arithmetic mean of the nine numbers in the set 
is a 
-digit number 
, all of whose digits are distinct. The number doesn't contain the digit
Solution 1
We wish to find 
, or 
. This doesn't have the digit 0, so the answer is 
Solution 2
Notice that the final number is guaranteed to have the digits 
and that each of these digits can be paired with an even number adding up to 9. can be taken out, with the other digits fulfilling divisibility by 9.
Solution 3
The arithmetic mean is 
. So select 
.
