Question 18

How many number of integers are there between 2008 and 20082008 including 2008 and 20082008 such that the sum of the digits in the square is 42?


Correct Answer: 0

Solution

A number and its digit sum leave the same remainder on division by 9. A perfect square leaves remainder 0, 1, 4 or 7 on division by 9, but $$42$$ leaves remainder 6. So no square has digit sum 42, and the number of such integers is 0.
