A certain street has 1000 buildings. A sign-maker is
contracted to number the houses from 1 to 1000. How many
zeroes will he need?
Answer Posted / guest
Divide 1000 building numbers into groups of 100 each as
follow:
(1..100), (101..200), (201..300), ....... (901..1000)
For the first group, sign-maker will need 11 zeroes.
For group numbers 2 to 9, he will require 20 zeroes each.
And for group number 10, he will require 21 zeroes.
The total numbers of zeroes required are
= 11 + 8*20 + 21
= 11 + 160 + 21
= 192

Alok and Bhanu play the following min-max game. Given the expression N = X - Y – Z where X, Y and Z are variables representing single digits (0 to 9), Alok would like to maximize N while Bhanu would like to minimize it. Towards this end, Alok chooses a single digit number and Bhanu substitutes this for a variable of her choice (X, Y or Z). Alok then chooses the next value and Bhanu, the variable to substitute the value. Finally Alok proposes the value for the remaining variable. Assuming both play to their optimal strategies, the value of N at the end of the game would be • 4 • -18 • 9 • 2
