Problem

Find the two $10$-digit numbers which become nine times as large if the order of the digits is reversed.

Solution

This problem needs a solution. If you have a solution for it, please help us out by adding it. Let's call any number that satisfies $x$.

1. $1000000000\le x\le1111111111$. It must be $10$-digit, and it multiplied by nine must be $10$-digit.

2. $x$ divides by $9$. If you recall the divisibility rule of 9, the sum of digits must be divisible by 9.

3. $x$ ends in $9$. $9x$ must start with $9$.

4. So $1000000089\le x\le 1111111119$

5. $12345670$ numbers to go.

The solution is $1089001089$.
