Thread: Find the missed digits

Well dear, what are the conditions for me to fill the digits? If no conditions are present, each digit can take any value from 0-9.

PS: Update your post and fill in some more details.

Hey Kalayama,

Its true there r conditions behind filling it... but i'm not going to give it because thats the answer and u have to find it... Like u said each digit can take any value from 0 to 9...
Fill those place with appropriate digits(thats my question)... There is some concept behind filing the digits find it and fill it... In the question itself i mentioned its a single number(quite big its okay)...

Thanks
Manoj

Any clues manoj??

Clue 1: 1,2,3..... play an important role...
Clue 2: 36085288503???007860???25

Thanks
Manoj

Well, actually the framingof the question was not too great.
For example,

"3608??88503???007860???25
This is a single number.."

. Since the question doesn't impose ANY consitions for the digits to be filled in,
Any of the below low can be answers.(None violate the conditions specified in the question).

3608128850334500786078925
3608988850376500786043225
....

In fact I can give 10^8 solution which satisfies the given conditions in the question.

Ideally any puzzle should define what it wants. And there should be finite number of solutions for a puzzle. Unfortunately, the question doesn't satisfy either conditions.

Is there anyone else who felt the same?

PS: Manoj, you are doing a good job in Brainteaser section. There's nothing personal here. I'm just trying to express what I felt about the puzzle.

I agree only one satisfies that condition. But, that condition was never mentioned in the question

Anyway Manoj, no harm done. I was too curious as to how a person can solve the puzzzle.

Suresh, On what basis did you solve the question? Please leave your reasoning on arriving the answer. I'm curious as to how one can solve this puzzle logically.

Hey Kalayama,

Its kind of funny... If i give that condition in the question then wat is the meaning of posting a question... Its like giving answer with the question... I think u also know this... I have answered this to you in my first post itself... I'm sure the solution that i had given is purely logical...

Thanks
Manoj

I fully agree with you that the solution was logical. But, how can I "Logically" arrive at the solution just by reading your question? How should I know that number should be of this format? There is no link!

Why shouldn't reaosn like, the missing digits should be 1-9. Or 9 to 1? That was my doubt.

Anyway, this discussion has already stretched far too long. Let's leave it at this. If you want to have more of this discussion, please PM me

(I will be too happy to see someone posting what made them to think the number was "Polydivisible" though )


Anyway. Suresh, please do the honours of deleting the posts which are irrelevant to the thread as my resent posts might have been off topic.

Hi Kalayama,

Can u tell me a digit more than 0 to 9... there is difference between number and digit... i dont know y u r arguing like this... My question itself says "Find the missed digits".... Sorry man i'm agreeing my question is wrong... I dont want to continue this argument any more....

Thanks
Manoj

Hey dude. You don't have to be sorry. This argument which is going on, is just in quest of a logic. Nothing more.

When I said the digit 9-1 I meant missing digits are just digits in decending order. That is, 3608988850376500786043225 (Oops! I could use only till 2 not 1!). Similarly when I said 1-9.

Anyways, Manoj. Let's drop the issue and waite for Suresh to post how he arrived at his solution. That will pretty much solve my doubts I believe.
