Math Problem Statement
Solution
The question in the uploaded image asks:
"How many numbers are there between 100 and 1000 such that every digit is either 2 or 9?"
Solution:
-
A number between 100 and 1000 is a 3-digit number.
- The first digit must be either 2 or 9 (to ensure it remains a 3-digit number).
- The second digit can be either 2 or 9.
- The third digit can also be either 2 or 9.
-
Since there are two choices (2 or 9) for each of the three digits, the total number of numbers is:
The Numbers:
The possible numbers formed by digits {2, 9} are:
- 222, 229, 292, 299, 922, 929, 992, 999.
So, there are 8 numbers in total.
