Problem 53 - How many values of C(n,r), for 1 ≤ n ≤ 100, exceed one-million?
링크 There are exactly ten ways of selecting three from five, 12345: 123, 124, 125, 134, 135, 145, 234, 235, 245, and 345 In combinatorics, we use the notation, 5C3 = 10. In general, nCr = n! r!(nr)! ,where r n, n! = n(n1)...321, and 0! = 1. It is not until n = 23, that a value exceeds one-million: 23C10 = 1144066. How many, not necessarily distinct, values of nCr, for 1 n 100, are greater than on..

Problem 52 - Find the smallest positive integer, x, such that 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, and 6x, contain the same digits in some order.
링크 It can be seen that the number, 125874, and its double, 251748, contain exactly the same digits, but in a different order. Find the smallest positive integer, x, such that 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, and 6x, contain the same digits. 유명한 숫자 "142857" 이 답일 것이라 추측하면서.. 조금 생각해보면 x의 마지막 자리 숫자는 반드시 7이어야 한다는 것을 알 수 있다. 그리고 답은 6자리 숫자이며(이미 알고있는 142857이 정답의 상한이므로) 각 다지트는 {7, 4, 1, 8, 5, 2} 중 하나이다. 이 중 1은 첫번째 자리 디지트..

Problem 49 - Find arithmetic sequences, made of prime terms, whose four digits are permutations of each other.
링크 The arithmetic sequence, 1487, 4817, 8147, in which each of the terms increases by 3330, is unusual in two ways: (i) each of the three terms are prime, and, (ii) each of the 4-digit numbers are permutations of one another. There are no arithmetic sequences made up of three 1-, 2-, or 3-digit primes, exhibiting this property, but there is one other 4-digit increasing sequence. What 12-digit nu..
