🧠:[<think>Alright, so I have this problem here where I need to calculate a big fraction. The numerator is the product of several terms, each of which is a number to the fourth power plus 64. Similarly, the denominator is another product of terms following the same pattern but with different bases. Specifically, the numerator is (7⁴ + 64)(15⁴ + 64)(23⁴ + 64)(31⁴ + 64)(39⁴ + 64), and the denominator is (3⁴ + 64)(11⁴ + 64)(19⁴ + 64)(27⁴ + 64)(35⁴ + 64). The question is asking for the value of this fraction. Hmm, that seems quite complex at first glance. Let me try to figure out a way to simplify this.First, I notice that both the numerator and the denominator have five terms each, and each term is of the form ( n^4 + 64 ). The numbers in the numerator are 7, 15, 23, 31, 39, and those in the denominator are 3, 11, 19, 27, 35. Looking at these numbers, they seem to form arithmetic sequences. Let me check:For the numerator: starting at 7, each subsequent number increases by 8. 7 + 8 = 15, 15 + 8 = 23, 23 + 8 = 31, 31 + 8 = 39. Yep, that's an arithmetic sequence with common difference 8.For the denominator: starting at 3, each term increases by 8 as well. 3 + 8 = 11, 11 + 8 = 19, 19 + 8 = 27, 27 + 8 = 35. So same common difference here. Interesting. So the terms in numerator and denominator are both in arithmetic progression with difference 8, but starting at different points.Now, each term is ( n^4 + 64 ). I wonder if there's a way to factor ( n^4 + 64 ). Normally, sums of squares are hard to factor, but maybe with some manipulation. Let me recall that ( a^4 + 4b^4 ) can be factored as ( (a^2 + 2ab + 2b^2)(a^2 - 2ab + 2b^2) ). Wait, this is similar to Sophie Germain's identity. Let me confirm:Yes, Sophie Germain's identity states that ( a^4 + 4b^4 = (a^2 + 2ab + 2b^2)(a^2 - 2ab + 2b^2) ). So if I can write ( n^4 + 64 ) in the form ( a^4 + 4b^4 ), then I can factor it. Let's see:64 is equal to 4 * 16, so 4 * (16). Therefore, if I take ( b^4 = 16 ), then ( b = 2 ), since ( 2^4 = 16 ). So, substituting into the identity, ( n^4 + 4*(2)^4 = (n^2 + 2*n*2 + 2*(2)^2)(n^2 - 2*n*2 + 2*(2)^2) ).Simplifying that, we get:( n^4 + 64 = (n^2 + 4n + 8)(n^2 - 4n + 8) ).Cool! So each term in both the numerator and the denominator can be factored into two quadratics. Let me check this with one of the terms. Let's take n = 3:( 3^4 + 64 = 81 + 64 = 145 ).Factoring using the identity: ( (3^2 + 4*3 + 8)(3^2 - 4*3 + 8) = (9 + 12 + 8)(9 - 12 + 8) = (29)(5) = 145 ). Perfect, that works. So the factorization holds.So, each term ( n^4 + 64 ) factors into ( (n^2 + 4n + 8)(n^2 - 4n + 8) ). Therefore, if we factor each term in the numerator and denominator, maybe we can see a pattern or cancellation between the numerator and denominator.Let me write out both numerator and denominator with their factored forms:Numerator terms:1. (7^4 + 64 = (7^2 + 4*7 + 8)(7^2 - 4*7 + 8) = (49 + 28 + 8)(49 - 28 + 8) = (85)(29))2. (15^4 + 64 = (15^2 + 4*15 + 8)(15^2 - 4*15 + 8) = (225 + 60 + 8)(225 - 60 + 8) = (293)(173))3. (23^4 + 64 = (23^2 + 4*23 + 8)(23^2 - 4*23 + 8) = (529 + 92 + 8)(529 - 92 + 8) = (629)(445))4. (31^4 + 64 = (31^2 + 4*31 + 8)(31^2 - 4*31 + 8) = (961 + 124 + 8)(961 - 124 + 8) = (1093)(845))5. (39^4 + 64 = (39^2 + 4*39 + 8)(39^2 - 4*39 + 8) = (1521 + 156 + 8)(1521 - 156 + 8) = (1685)(1373))Denominator terms:1. (3^4 + 64 = (3^2 + 4*3 + 8)(3^2 - 4*3 + 8) = (9 + 12 + 8)(9 - 12 + 8) = (29)(5))2. (11^4 + 64 = (11^2 + 4*11 + 8)(11^2 - 4*11 + 8) = (121 + 44 + 8)(121 - 44 + 8) = (173)(85))3. (19^4 + 64 = (19^2 + 4*19 + 8)(19^2 - 4*19 + 8) = (361 + 76 + 8)(361 - 76 + 8) = (445)(293))4. (27^4 + 64 = (27^2 + 4*27 + 8)(27^2 - 4*27 + 8) = (729 + 108 + 8)(729 - 108 + 8) = (845)(629))5. (35^4 + 64 = (35^2 + 4*35 + 8)(35^2 - 4*35 + 8) = (1225 + 140 + 8)(1225 - 140 + 8) = (1373)(1093))Wait a second, this is interesting. When I factor each term in the numerator and denominator, the factors seem to be the same numbers but in reverse order between numerator and denominator. Let's check:First numerator term factors: 85 and 29. First denominator term factors: 29 and 5.Second numerator term factors: 293 and 173. Second denominator term factors: 173 and 85.Third numerator term factors: 629 and 445. Third denominator term factors: 445 and 293.Fourth numerator term factors: 1093 and 845. Fourth denominator term factors: 845 and 629.Fifth numerator term factors: 1685 and 1373. Fifth denominator term factors: 1373 and 1093.Oh! So each denominator term's factors are the reverse of the previous numerator term's factors? Wait, let me see:Looking at the first denominator term (3⁴ + 64) factors into 29 * 5. The first numerator term (7⁴ + 64) factors into 85 * 29. So the 29 is common between the first numerator term and the first denominator term's next term? Wait, maybe not. Let me look more carefully.Wait, actually, looking at the factors:Numerator terms factored:1. 85 * 292. 293 * 1733. 629 * 4454. 1093 * 8455. 1685 * 1373Denominator terms factored:1. 29 * 52. 173 * 853. 445 * 2934. 845 * 6295. 1373 * 1093So, each denominator term is the reverse of the previous numerator term's factors. For example:Denominator term 2 is 173 * 85. Numerator term 1 is 85 * 29. So the 85 from numerator term 1 cancels with the 85 in denominator term 2?Wait, but how does the cancellation work here? Let's see.If we write out all the factors of numerator and denominator, maybe there is telescoping.Let me write the entire fraction as:[(85 * 29) * (293 * 173) * (629 * 445) * (1093 * 845) * (1685 * 1373)] / [(29 * 5) * (173 * 85) * (445 * 293) * (845 * 629) * (1373 * 1093)]If we rearrange the numerator and denominator factors, perhaps pairing them:Numerator factors: 85, 29, 293, 173, 629, 445, 1093, 845, 1685, 1373Denominator factors: 29, 5, 173, 85, 445, 293, 845, 629, 1373, 1093So arranging them in order:Numerator: 85, 29, 293, 173, 629, 445, 1093, 845, 1685, 1373Denominator: 29, 5, 173, 85, 445, 293, 845, 629, 1373, 1093Now, let's pair each numerator factor with denominator factors where possible:1. Numerator 85 cancels with Denominator 85 (fourth term in denominator).2. Numerator 29 cancels with Denominator 29 (first term in denominator).3. Numerator 293 cancels with Denominator 293 (sixth term in denominator).4. Numerator 173 cancels with Denominator 173 (third term in denominator).5. Numerator 629 cancels with Denominator 629 (eighth term in denominator).6. Numerator 445 cancels with Denominator 445 (fifth term in denominator).7. Numerator 1093 cancels with Denominator 1093 (tenth term in denominator).8. Numerator 845 cancels with Denominator 845 (seventh term in denominator).9. Numerator 1685 remains.10. Numerator 1373 cancels with Denominator 1373 (ninth term in denominator).Denominator remaining terms after cancellation: 5 (second term in denominator) and 1093 was already canceled. Wait, let me check again.Wait, after pairing:- The first term in the numerator is 85, which cancels with the fourth term in the denominator (85).- The second term in the numerator is 29, cancels with the first term in the denominator (29).- Third numerator term 293 cancels with sixth denominator term 293.- Fourth numerator term 173 cancels with third denominator term 173.- Fifth numerator term 629 cancels with eighth denominator term 629.- Sixth numerator term 445 cancels with fifth denominator term 445.- Seventh numerator term 1093 cancels with tenth denominator term 1093.- Eighth numerator term 845 cancels with seventh denominator term 845.- Ninth numerator term 1685 doesn't have a match in the denominator.- Tenth numerator term 1373 cancels with ninth denominator term 1373.So, the remaining terms after cancellation are:From the numerator: 1685From the denominator: 5So the entire product simplifies to 1685 / 5. Let me compute that: 1685 divided by 5. 5 goes into 16 three times (15), remainder 1. Bring down 8: 18. 5 goes into 18 three times (15), remainder 3. Bring down 5: 35. 5 goes into 35 seven times. So total is 337. Therefore, 1685 / 5 = 337.Hence, the entire expression simplifies to 337.But wait, let me verify this because it's easy to make a mistake in the cancellation. Let's list all numerator factors and denominator factors and cross them out step by step.Numerator factors in order:1. 852. 293. 2934. 1735. 6296. 4457. 10938. 8459. 168510. 1373Denominator factors in order:1. 292. 53. 1734. 855. 4456. 2937. 8458. 6299. 137310. 1093Now, let's go through each factor:1. Numerator 85 cancels with denominator 4 (85). So cancel 85 and 85.2. Numerator 29 cancels with denominator 1 (29). Cancel 29 and 29.3. Numerator 293 cancels with denominator 6 (293). Cancel 293 and 293.4. Numerator 173 cancels with denominator 3 (173). Cancel 173 and 173.5. Numerator 629 cancels with denominator 8 (629). Cancel 629 and 629.6. Numerator 445 cancels with denominator 5 (445). Cancel 445 and 445.7. Numerator 1093 cancels with denominator 10 (1093). Cancel 1093 and 1093.8. Numerator 845 cancels with denominator 7 (845). Cancel 845 and 845.9. Numerator 1685 has no match in the denominator. Remains.10. Numerator 1373 cancels with denominator 9 (1373). Cancel 1373 and 1373.Denominator factors remaining after cancellation:Original denominator factors: 1.29, 2.5, 3.173, 4.85, 5.445, 6.293, 7.845, 8.629, 9.1373, 10.1093After cancellation, which ones are left? The only denominator term not canceled is 2.5. Wait, no. Wait, when we canceled each denominator factor with numerator factors:Denominator 1.29 canceled by numerator 2.29.Denominator 2.5 remains.Denominator 3.173 canceled by numerator 4.173.Denominator 4.85 canceled by numerator 1.85.Denominator 5.445 canceled by numerator 6.445.Denominator 6.293 canceled by numerator 3.293.Denominator 7.845 canceled by numerator 8.845.Denominator 8.629 canceled by numerator 5.629.Denominator 9.1373 canceled by numerator 10.1373.Denominator 10.1093 canceled by numerator 7.1093.Therefore, the only remaining denominator factor is 2.5.The remaining numerator factors are only 9.1685.So the simplified fraction is 1685 / 5 = 337. So the final answer is 337. Hmm.But let me double-check with a small example. Let's take fewer terms and see if the pattern holds.Suppose I have numerator: (7⁴ +64) and denominator: (3⁴ +64). Then using the same approach:Numerator: (7⁴ +64) = (7² +4*7 +8)(7² -4*7 +8) = 85 * 29Denominator: (3⁴ +64) = (3² +4*3 +8)(3² -4*3 +8) = 29 *5So the fraction is (85 *29)/(29 *5) = 85/5 =17. So 17. Let me compute 7⁴ +64 = 2401 +64=2465. 3⁴ +64=81+64=145. 2465/145=17. Correct. So in this smaller case, the fraction simplifies to 17. So same pattern, 85 cancels with denominator's 85, but here, the numerator's 29 cancels with denominator's 29, leaving 85/5=17. Wait, but in this case, the remaining numerator factor is 85 and the remaining denominator factor is 5. So 85/5=17. So in the original problem, with multiple terms, the same telescoping occurs, leaving the last numerator factor (1685) and the first denominator factor (5). Wait, no, in the original problem, the remaining denominator factor is 5, which was the second denominator term. Wait, in the first term of the denominator, we had 29 *5. So in the denominator, after cancelling all other terms, the only remaining denominator factor is 5. Wait, in the original problem, the denominator's first term is 29*5, so when we cancel the 29 with the numerator's first term's 29, the 5 is left in the denominator. Then, as we proceed, each denominator term has a factor that cancels with the next numerator term. Wait, let me see with two terms:Numerator: (7⁴ +64)(15⁴ +64) = (85*29)(293*173)Denominator: (3⁴ +64)(11⁴ +64) = (29*5)(173*85)So the fraction is (85*29*293*173)/(29*5*173*85) = (293)/(5). Because 85 cancels with 85, 29 cancels with 29, 173 cancels with 173, leaving 293/5. But 293 is prime? 293 divided by 5 is 58.6, but in reality, 15⁴ +64 divided by 11⁴ +64 is (50625 +64)/(14641 +64)=50689/14705≈3.447. But 293/5=58.6 which is not equal. Wait, so here my previous logic might have a problem.Wait, no. Wait, if we have numerator terms factored: 85*29 and 293*173.Denominator terms factored:29*5 and 173*85.So the fraction is (85 *29 *293 *173)/(29 *5 *173 *85). The 85 cancels, 29 cancels, 173 cancels, leaving 293/5. But 293 divided by 5 is 58.6, but (50689)/(14705) is 50689 ÷14705. Let me compute that. 14705*3=44115, 50689 -44115=6574. 14705*0.4=5882. So 3.4 approximately. But 293/5=58.6. That discrepancy suggests an error in my reasoning.Wait, this is conflicting. So according to the factoring, the fraction is 293/5, but the actual division gives approximately 3.447. So something is wrong here. Therefore, my earlier assumption that the cancellation works straightforwardly might be incorrect.Wait, wait a second. Let's compute the actual values:Numerator: (7⁴ +64)(15⁴ +64) = (2401 +64)(50625 +64) = 2465 * 50689Denominator: (3⁴ +64)(11⁴ +64) = (81 +64)(14641 +64) = 145 * 14705Compute numerator:2465 *50689. Let's compute 2465*50689. That's a big number. Let's see if 2465*50689 / (145*14705) equals 293/5.First, compute 2465/145. 145*17=2465, so 2465/145=17. Then, compute 50689/14705. Let's divide 50689 by 14705. 14705*3=44115, 50689-44115=6574. So 50689=14705*3 +6574. Then, 6574/14705≈0.447. So total is 3.447. Therefore, 17*3.447≈58.6, which is 293/5=58.6. So indeed, 17*(50689/14705)=17*(approx 3.447)=58.6=293/5. So numerically it checks out. Therefore, the fraction is indeed 293/5. But how? Because 293 is a prime number. So in the two-term case, the fraction simplifies to 293/5. But in reality, how is that possible? Let me check the factoring again.Wait, when we have:Numerator: (7⁴ +64)(15⁴ +64) = (85*29)(293*173)Denominator: (3⁴ +64)(11⁴ +64) = (29*5)(173*85)Then, when written as a fraction:(85*29*293*173) / (29*5*173*85) = (293)/(5). Because 85 cancels with 85, 29 cancels with 29, 173 cancels with 173. So numerator is left with 293, denominator with 5. Therefore, 293/5. But when we actually compute the division, it is (2465*50689)/(145*14705)= (17*145 * 50689)/(145*14705)=17*50689/14705. Then, 50689 divided by 14705 is 3.447... and 17*3.447≈58.6, which is 293/5=58.6. So indeed, 17*(50689/14705)=17*(50689)/(14705)= (17*50689)/14705. But 17*50689=861,713. Then 861,713/14,705=58.6. So 58.6 is 293/5. Hence, the algebra is correct. The confusion is because even though the intermediate numbers are large, the fraction simplifies neatly due to the cancellations.So this suggests that in the original problem, after cancellation, the remaining terms would be the last numerator factor divided by the first denominator factor. Wait, in the two-term case, the remaining numerator factor was the second numerator term's first factor (293) and the remaining denominator factor was the first denominator term's second factor (5). Hmm, but in the two-term example, the remaining factors were 293 (from numerator's second term) and 5 (from denominator's first term). So in general, if we have a chain of terms, each subsequent term in the numerator cancels with the previous denominator term. So telescoping is happening across the product.Wait, perhaps in the original problem, each numerator term's second factor cancels with the next denominator term's first factor. Let me check:Original numerator terms factored:1. 85 *292. 293 *1733. 629 *4454. 1093 *8455. 1685 *1373Original denominator terms factored:1. 29 *52. 173 *853. 445 *2934. 845 *6295. 1373 *1093So if we write them in order:Numerator factors:Term1: 85, 29Term2:293,173Term3:629,445Term4:1093,845Term5:1685,1373Denominator factors:Term1:29,5Term2:173,85Term3:445,293Term4:845,629Term5:1373,1093Now, arranging all numerator factors in sequence:85, 29, 293, 173, 629, 445, 1093, 845, 1685, 1373Denominator factors in sequence:29,5, 173,85, 445,293, 845,629,1373,1093Now, observe that:Numerator's second factor (29) cancels with Denominator's first factor (29).Numerator's fourth factor (173) cancels with Denominator's third factor (173).Numerator's sixth factor (445) cancels with Denominator's fifth factor (445).Numerator's eighth factor (845) cancels with Denominator's seventh factor (845).Numerator's tenth factor (1373) cancels with Denominator's ninth factor (1373).Then, the other cancellations:Numerator's first factor (85) cancels with Denominator's fourth factor (85).Numerator's third factor (293) cancels with Denominator's sixth factor (293).Numerator's fifth factor (629) cancels with Denominator's eighth factor (629).Numerator's seventh factor (1093) cancels with Denominator's tenth factor (1093).Numerator's ninth factor (1685) remains.Denominator's remaining factors are Denominator's second factor (5) and Denominator's tenth factor was already canceled. Wait, Denominator's tenth factor is 1093, which was canceled by Numerator's seventh factor. Denominator's second factor is 5, which didn't get canceled.Therefore, after all cancellations, we have Numerator's ninth factor 1685 remaining and Denominator's second factor 5 remaining. So the result is 1685 /5 = 337. So this seems consistent.Therefore, despite the complexity of the terms, the telescoping works out such that all factors cancel except the last numerator factor and the first denominator's second factor. Hence, the answer is 337.But let me verify with one more term. Let's take three terms in numerator and denominator.Numerator: (7⁴ +64)(15⁴ +64)(23⁴ +64) = (85*29)(293*173)(629*445)Denominator: (3⁴ +64)(11⁴ +64)(19⁴ +64) = (29*5)(173*85)(445*293)So fraction is:(85*29*293*173*629*445)/(29*5*173*85*445*293) = 629/5. Because 85 cancels, 29 cancels, 293 cancels, 173 cancels, 445 cancels, leaving 629/5. 629 divided by 5 is 125.8. Let's compute actual value:Numerator: (7⁴ +64)(15⁴ +64)(23⁴ +64)=2465*50689*279841Denominator:145*14705*130321Divide these: (2465/145)*(50689/14705)*(279841/130321)=17*(3.447)*(2.148). Compute 17*3.447=58.6, 58.6*2.148≈125.8. Which is 629/5=125.8. So the pattern continues. Hence, with each additional term, the remaining numerator factor is the next in the sequence, and denominator's remaining factor is always 5.In the original problem, with five terms, the last numerator factor is 1685, so 1685/5=337.Therefore, after carefully checking with smaller numbers and verifying the cancellation pattern, I can be confident that the answer is indeed 337.Final Answerboxed{337}</think>To solve the given problem, we need to simplify the fraction:[frac{left(7^{4}+64right)left(15^{4}+64right)left(23^{4}+64right)left(31^{4}+64right)left(39^{4}+64right)}{left(3^{4}+64right)left(11^{4}+64right)left(19^{4}+64right)left(27^{4}+64right)left(35^{4}+64right)}]First, we recognize that each term in the numerator and denominator can be factored using Sophie Germain's identity, which states (a^4 + 4b^4 = (a^2 + 2ab + 2b^2)(a^2 - 2ab + 2b^2)). For (n^4 + 64), we set (b = 2), leading to the factorization:[n^4 + 64 = (n^2 + 4n + 8)(n^2 - 4n + 8)]We factor each term in the numerator and denominator:Numerator terms:1. (7^4 + 64 = (7^2 + 4 cdot 7 + 8)(7^2 - 4 cdot 7 + 8) = 85 cdot 29)2. (15^4 + 64 = (15^2 + 4 cdot 15 + 8)(15^2 - 4 cdot 15 + 8) = 293 cdot 173)3.

(39^4 + 64 = (39^2 + 4 cdot 39 + 8)(39^2 - 4 cdot 39 + 8) = 1685 cdot 1373)Denominator terms:1. (3^4 + 64 = (3^2 + 4 cdot 3 + 8)(3^2 - 4 cdot 3 + 8) = 29 cdot 5)2. (11^4 + 64 = (11^2 + 4 cdot 11 + 8)(11^2 - 4 cdot 11 + 8) = 173 cdot 85)3. (19^4 + 64 = (19^2 + 4 cdot 19 + 8)(19^2 - 4 cdot 19 + 8) = 445 cdot 293)4. (27^4 + 64 = (27^2 + 4 cdot 27 + 8)(27^2 - 4 cdot 27 + 8) = 845 cdot 629)5. (35^4 + 64 = (35^2 + 4 cdot 35 + 8)(35^2 - 4 cdot 35 + 8) = 1373 cdot 1093)Next, we observe that each factor in the denominator cancels with a corresponding factor in the numerator, except for the last factor in the numerator and the first factor in the denominator. This results in a telescoping product, leaving:[frac{1685}{5} = 337]Thus, the final answer is:[boxed{337}],<think>Okay, so I have this problem here where I need to calculate this big fraction. The numerator is the product of five terms: (7⁴ + 64), (15⁴ + 64), (23⁴ + 64), (31⁴ + 64), and (39⁴ + 64). The denominator is also a product of five terms: (3⁴ + 64), (11⁴ + 64), (19⁴ + 64), (27⁴ + 64), and (35⁴ + 64). At first glance, this looks really complicated because each term is a fourth power plus 64. Multiplying all these out would be super tedious. There must be a pattern or a formula that simplifies this.Let me start by looking at one of these terms, say 7⁴ + 64. Maybe I can factor that somehow. I remember that expressions like a⁴ + 4b⁴ can be factored using the Sophie Germain identity. Let me recall: a⁴ + 4b⁴ = (a² + 2ab + 2b²)(a² - 2ab + 2b²). Is that right? Let me check with a simple example. If a=1 and b=1, then 1 + 4 = 5. Using the formula: (1 + 2 + 2)(1 - 2 + 2) = (5)(1) = 5. That works. So maybe if I can write 64 as 4 * 16, which is 4 * 2⁴. So 64 = 4 * 2⁴. Therefore, each term in the numerator and denominator is of the form a⁴ + 4 * 2⁴. So applying the Sophie Germain identity, each term can be factored as (a² + 2 * a * 2 + 2 * 2²)(a² - 2 * a * 2 + 2 * 2²) = (a² + 4a + 8)(a² - 4a + 8).Let me test this with 7⁴ + 64. Let's factor it:7⁴ + 64 = 7⁴ + 4 * 16 = (7² + 4*7 + 8)(7² - 4*7 + 8) = (49 + 28 + 8)(49 - 28 + 8) = (85)(29). Let me check 85 * 29. 85*30 = 2550, subtract 85: 2550 - 85 = 2465. Now 7⁴ is 7*7*7*7=49*49=2401. 2401 + 64 = 2465. So yes, that factors correctly. Great, so each term in the numerator and denominator can be factored into two quadratic terms.So if I factor each term in the numerator and denominator, maybe there will be cancellation between the numerator and denominator factors. Let me try this approach.First, let's factor all terms:Starting with the numerator terms:1. 7⁴ + 64 = (7² + 4*7 + 8)(7² - 4*7 + 8) = (49 + 28 + 8)(49 - 28 + 8) = (85)(29)2. 15⁴ + 64 = (15² + 4*15 + 8)(15² - 4*15 + 8) = (225 + 60 + 8)(225 - 60 + 8) = (293)(173)3. 23⁴ + 64 = (23² + 4*23 + 8)(23² - 4*23 + 8) = (529 + 92 + 8)(529 - 92 + 8) = (629)(445)Wait, let me compute 529 + 92 + 8: 529 + 92 is 621, +8 is 629. 529 - 92 is 437, +8 is 445. So yes, 629 * 445.4. 31⁴ + 64 = (31² + 4*31 + 8)(31² - 4*31 + 8) = (961 + 124 + 8)(961 - 124 + 8) = (1093)(845)5. 39⁴ + 64 = (39² + 4*39 + 8)(39² - 4*39 + 8) = (1521 + 156 + 8)(1521 - 156 + 8) = (1685)(1373)Denominator terms:1. 3⁴ + 64 = (3² + 4*3 + 8)(3² - 4*3 + 8) = (9 + 12 + 8)(9 - 12 + 8) = (29)(5)2. 11⁴ + 64 = (11² + 4*11 + 8)(11² - 4*11 + 8) = (121 + 44 + 8)(121 - 44 + 8) = (173)(85)3. 19⁴ + 64 = (19² + 4*19 + 8)(19² - 4*19 + 8) = (361 + 76 + 8)(361 - 76 + 8) = (445)(293)4. 27⁴ + 64 = (27² + 4*27 + 8)(27² - 4*27 + 8) = (729 + 108 + 8)(729 - 108 + 8) = (845)(629)5. 35⁴ + 64 = (35² + 4*35 + 8)(35² - 4*35 + 8) = (1225 + 140 + 8)(1225 - 140 + 8) = (1373)(1093)Wait a minute! Let me check these factorizations again. For example, in the denominator:First term: 3⁴ + 64 factors into (29)(5). Then numerator's first term is 85*29. So the 29 cancels with the denominator's first term's 29. Similarly, the denominator's second term is 11⁴ + 64 = 173*85. The numerator's first term has an 85, so 85 cancels with denominator's second term's 85. Then denominator's third term is 19⁴ +64=445*293, which the numerator's second term is 293*173. Wait, numerator's second term was 15⁴ +64=293*173. So denominator's third term is 445*293. So 293 cancels with numerator's second term's 293? Wait, no, numerator's second term is 293*173, denominator's third term is 445*293. So 293 cancels between numerator's second term and denominator's third term? Wait, no, the numerator terms are:Numerator: (85*29) * (293*173) * (629*445) * (1093*845) * (1685*1373)Denominator: (29*5) * (173*85) * (445*293) * (629*845) * (1373*1093)So when written out, the numerator is:85 * 29 * 293 * 173 * 629 * 445 * 1093 * 845 * 1685 * 1373Denominator is:29 * 5 * 173 * 85 * 445 * 293 * 629 * 845 * 1373 * 1093Now let's rearrange numerator and denominator terms to see cancellation:Numerator factors: 85, 29, 293, 173, 629, 445, 1093, 845, 1685, 1373Denominator factors: 29, 5, 173, 85, 445, 293, 629, 845, 1373, 1093So let's pair them up:- 85 in numerator cancels with 85 in denominator- 29 cancels with 29- 293 cancels with 293- 173 cancels with 173- 445 cancels with 445- 629 cancels with 629- 845 cancels with 845- 1093 cancels with 1093- 1373 cancels with 1373So what's left in the numerator is 1685 and in the denominator is 5. Therefore, the entire expression simplifies to 1685 / 5.Compute 1685 ÷ 5: 5*337 = 1685. So 1685 /5 = 337.Wait, so the result is 337? That seems too straightforward, but let me verify again.Looking at the numerator's remaining term: the last term after factoring is 1685 *1373. But in the denominator, the last term after factoring is 1373 *1093. Wait, but in the denominator, the factors are 29,5,173,85,445,293,629,845,1373,1093. So the numerator has:85,29,293,173,629,445,1093,845,1685,1373Denominator has:29,5,173,85,445,293,629,845,1373,1093So when we cancel:85 (num) cancels with 85 (den)29 (num) cancels with 29 (den)293 (num) cancels with 293 (den)173 (num) cancels with 173 (den)629 (num) cancels with 629 (den)445 (num) cancels with 445 (den)845 (num) cancels with 845 (den)1093 (num) cancels with 1093 (den)1373 (num) cancels with 1373 (den)So numerator left with 1685, denominator left with 5.Therefore, 1685 /5 = 337.Yes, that seems correct. But let me check once more, maybe I missed a factor.Wait, numerator factors:First term: 85*29Second term:293*173Third term:629*445Fourth term:1093*845Fifth term:1685*1373So all factors: 85,29,293,173,629,445,1093,845,1685,1373Denominator factors:First term:29*5Second term:173*85Third term:445*293Fourth term:629*845Fifth term:1373*1093So all factors:29,5,173,85,445,293,629,845,1373,1093So yes, all numerator factors except 1685 cancel with denominator factors, and denominator has leftover 5. So 1685 /5 = 337.Therefore, the value of the big fraction is 337.But just to be thorough, let me check another term. For example, the numerator's third term is (23⁴ +64) =629*445, and denominator's third term is (19⁴ +64)=445*293. So numerator's 445 cancels with denominator's 445. Similarly, numerator's fourth term is (31⁴ +64)=1093*845, denominator's fourth term is (27⁴ +64)=629*845. So 845 cancels. Then numerator's fifth term is (39⁴ +64)=1685*1373, denominator's fifth term is (35⁴ +64)=1373*1093. So 1373 cancels. So all cancellations are accounted for. So indeed, only 1685 in numerator and 5 in denominator remain. 1685 divided by 5 is 337. 5*300=1500, 1685-1500=185. 5*37=185. So 300+37=337. Yep. Correct.So the answer is 337.Final Answerboxed{337}</think>To solve the given problem, we start by recognizing that each term in the numerator and denominator can be factored using the Sophie Germain identity: (a^4 + 4b^4 = (a^2 + 2ab + 2b^2)(a^2 - 2ab + 2b^2)).

🔑:Answer: 337

🧠:[<think>Okay, let's try to figure out how to solve this problem. So, we need to find the number of eight-digit numbers composed of 0s and 1s, starting with 1, and where the sum of the digits in the even positions equals the sum in the odd positions. Let me break this down step by step.First, the number is eight digits long, all digits are 0 or 1, and it starts with 1. So the first digit is fixed as 1. That leaves the remaining seven digits (positions 2 through 8) to be either 0 or 1. But we have this condition about the sums in even and odd positions.Wait, let's clarify the positions. When the problem says "even positions" and "odd positions," does that mean the position numbers (like second digit, fourth digit, etc.) or the digits themselves being even or odd? But since all digits are 0 or 1, their parity is already determined. But the problem says "sum of the digits in the even positions equals the sum of the digits in the odd positions." So, I think it's referring to the positions. For an eight-digit number, the positions would be 1 through 8. So odd positions are 1,3,5,7 and even positions are 2,4,6,8.But wait, the first digit is position 1, which is odd. Since the number starts with 1, that digit is fixed as 1. So in the odd positions, position 1 is 1, and positions 3,5,7 are variable (each can be 0 or 1). Similarly, even positions are 2,4,6,8, each of which can be 0 or 1.So, let's note that:- Odd positions: positions 1,3,5,7. Position 1 is fixed as 1, the other three (positions 3,5,7) can be 0 or 1. So the sum of the digits in the odd positions is 1 + (sum of digits in positions 3,5,7). Let's call the sum of digits in positions 3,5,7 as S_odd. So total sum for odd positions is 1 + S_odd.- Even positions: positions 2,4,6,8. Each can be 0 or 1, so the sum here is S_even, which is the sum of digits in these four positions.The condition is that 1 + S_odd = S_even. So S_even - S_odd = 1.Now, S_even can range from 0 to 4 (since there are four digits each 0 or 1), and S_odd can range from 0 to 3 (since there are three digits each 0 or 1). So we need to find the number of possible combinations where S_even - S_odd = 1.Let me rephrase that. Let’s let S_even = S_odd + 1. So for each possible value of S_odd, S_even is determined. Let's see what possible S_odd values can lead to valid S_even.Since S_odd can be 0,1,2,3, then S_even would be 1,2,3,4. But S_even cannot exceed 4, so all these are valid. Therefore, for each possible S_odd (0 to 3), we can compute the number of ways to get S_odd in the odd positions (positions 3,5,7) and the number of ways to get S_even = S_odd +1 in the even positions (positions 2,4,6,8). Then multiply those two numbers for each S_odd and sum them up.So, the total number of such numbers is the sum over k=0 to 3 of [C(3, k) * C(4, k+1)].Let me check that.For each k (which is S_odd), the number of ways to have sum k in three digits is C(3, k), since we need to choose k positions out of 3 to be 1s. Similarly, the number of ways to have sum k+1 in four digits is C(4, k+1). So multiplying these gives the number of numbers where the odd positions (excluding the first digit) sum to k and the even positions sum to k+1. Then we sum over all possible k (from 0 to 3).Yes, that seems correct. Let's compute this.Compute each term:For k=0:C(3,0)*C(4,1) = 1*4 = 4For k=1:C(3,1)*C(4,2) = 3*6 = 18For k=2:C(3,2)*C(4,3) = 3*4 = 12For k=3:C(3,3)*C(4,4) = 1*1 = 1Adding these up: 4 + 18 + 12 + 1 = 35.So the total number of such numbers is 35.Wait, but let me verify this again. Let me check each term.C(3,0) is 1, as there's only one way to have 0 ones in three positions. C(4,1) is 4, which is correct. So 1*4=4.C(3,1) is 3, choosing 1 one out of three. C(4,2) is 6, so 3*6=18. That's correct.C(3,2)=3, C(4,3)=4, so 3*4=12. Correct.C(3,3)=1, C(4,4)=1, so 1*1=1. Correct.Summing them up: 4+18=22, 22+12=34, 34+1=35. So 35.But wait, let me think again. The first digit is fixed as 1. Then positions 3,5,7 (three digits) contribute to S_odd, which is the sum of those three. The even positions are four digits (positions 2,4,6,8). The total number of numbers would then be 2^3 * 2^4 = 8*16=128, but with the constraint that 1 + sum(positions 3,5,7) = sum(positions 2,4,6,8). So the number of solutions is indeed the sum over k=0 to 3 of [C(3, k)*C(4, k+1)].But let me check with an example. Suppose S_odd=0, so sum(positions 3,5,7)=0, so all three digits are 0. Then sum_even must be 1. So how many ways to have sum_even=1? C(4,1)=4. So 4 numbers here.Similarly, if S_odd=1, meaning one of the three digits is 1. Then sum_even needs to be 2. The number of such combinations is C(3,1)*C(4,2)=3*6=18. So 18 numbers.If S_odd=2, sum_even=3. So C(3,2)*C(4,3)=3*4=12.If S_odd=3, sum_even=4. C(3,3)*C(4,4)=1*1=1.Total 35. That seems correct. But let me think if there's another way to approach this.Alternatively, maybe we can model it as equations. Let me denote:Let x1, x2, x3, x4, x5, x6, x7, x8 be the digits. Given x1=1. We need sum_{i even} xi = sum_{i odd} xi. Since x1=1, the sum over odd positions is 1 + x3 + x5 + x7. The sum over even positions is x2 + x4 + x6 + x8.So the equation is:x2 + x4 + x6 + x8 = 1 + x3 + x5 + x7Rearranged:x2 + x4 + x6 + x8 - x3 - x5 - x7 = 1We can think of this as a linear equation over the variables x2, x3, x4, x5, x6, x7, x8 (since x1 is fixed). Each variable is either 0 or 1. How many solutions does this equation have?Alternatively, we can set variables:Let’s let S = x2 + x4 + x6 + x8 - (x3 + x5 + x7) = 1.But since each x_i is 0 or 1, we can write:(x2 + x4 + x6 + x8) - (x3 + x5 + x7) = 1.Let’s think of the total number of variables here: 4 even variables and 3 odd variables (excluding x1). So total 7 variables, each 0 or 1.Alternatively, let me denote:Let’s let A = x2 + x4 + x6 + x8 (sum of even positions)B = x3 + x5 + x7 (sum of odd positions excluding x1)Then the equation is A - B = 1.So A = B + 1.Given that A is the sum of four bits (0-4) and B is the sum of three bits (0-3). So possible values of B are 0,1,2,3, and then A would be 1,2,3,4 respectively.For each possible B=k, A=k+1. The number of solutions is C(3, k) * C(4, k+1). Then total solutions is sum_{k=0}^3 C(3,k)*C(4,k+1) = 35 as before. So that seems to confirm.Alternatively, perhaps generating functions can be used here. Let's consider generating functions for the sum of the even positions and the sum of the odd positions (excluding the first digit).For the even positions (4 variables), the generating function is (1 + x)^4. Each term x^k represents the number of ways to get sum k.For the odd positions (3 variables), the generating function is (1 + x)^3. But since we need A = B + 1, we can model this as the coefficient of x^{k+1} in the even positions times x^k in the odd positions. Wait, let's see.The generating function for the equation A - B = 1 would require that the coefficient of x^{B+1} in the even GF multiplied by the coefficient of x^B in the odd GF. Then sum over B.So, if we multiply the generating function for even positions by the generating function for odd positions^{-1} shifted by x^{-1}? Hmm, maybe not straightforward.Alternatively, the total generating function for the equation A - B = 1 is the product of the generating functions for A and B, but looking for coefficients where the exponent difference is 1.Alternatively, think of the generating function for the difference A - B. But since A and B are non-negative integers, the difference can range from -3 (if A=0, B=3) to 4 (A=4, B=0). We need the coefficient of x^1 in the generating function representing A - B.But how to model this? The generating function for A is (1 + x)^4, and for B is (1 + x^{-1})^3, since B is subtracted. Then the generating function for A - B is (1 + x)^4 * (1 + x^{-1})^3. The coefficient of x^1 in this product would give the number of solutions.Let’s compute this:(1 + x)^4 * (1 + x^{-1})^3 = (1 + x)^4 * (1 + 1/x)^3 = (1 + x)^4 * (1/x^3)(1 + x)^3 = (1 + x)^7 / x^3.Therefore, the coefficient of x^1 in this expression is the same as the coefficient of x^{1 + 3} = x^4 in (1 + x)^7, which is C(7,4) = 35.Which matches our previous result. So that confirms the answer is 35.Hmm, that's a neat approach. So using generating functions, we can see that the number of solutions is C(7,4) = 35. Wait, why is that?Because when we set up the generating function for A - B = 1, it becomes (1 + x)^4 * (1 + x^{-1})^3 = (1 + x)^7 / x^3. So the coefficient of x^1 is the same as the coefficient of x^{4} in (1 + x)^7, which is 35. Therefore, the answer is 35.So both the combinatorial approach and generating functions give the same answer. That gives me more confidence that 35 is correct.Let me just cross-verify once more with a different approach.Suppose we fix the first digit as 1. Then, we have 7 remaining digits: positions 2,3,4,5,6,7,8. Let's consider these seven digits. The condition is that sum of even positions (positions 2,4,6,8) minus sum of odd positions (positions 3,5,7) equals 1. Because the first digit is already 1, and the original condition is that sum of even positions equals sum of odd positions (including the first digit). Therefore, sum_even = sum_odd_original. But sum_odd_original = 1 + sum(positions 3,5,7). Therefore, sum_even - sum(positions 3,5,7) = 1. So the equation is sum_even - sum_remaining_odds = 1.Now, if we treat this as a linear equation, where each of the seven remaining digits is a variable (0 or 1), then the number of solutions is the number of binary solutions to:x2 + x4 + x6 + x8 - x3 - x5 - x7 = 1.This is equivalent to:x2 + x4 + x6 + x8 = 1 + x3 + x5 + x7.But all variables are 0 or 1. Let's think of this equation as:x2 + x4 + x6 + x8 - x3 - x5 - x7 = 1.But how does this equation constrain the variables? Since each variable is 0 or 1, the left-hand side (LHS) can range from -3 (if all x3, x5, x7 are 1 and all x2, x4, x6, x8 are 0) to 4 (if all x2, x4, x6, x8 are 1 and all x3, x5, x7 are 0). We need the LHS to be 1.To count the number of solutions, we can think of it as an integer linear equation in seven variables. But given that variables are binary, this might not be straightforward. However, the generating function approach already confirmed 35.Alternatively, we can model this as an integer linear programming problem, but since variables are binary, we can use inclusion-exclusion or other combinatorial methods. But since we already have two methods confirming 35, I think that's solid.Therefore, the answer is 35.Final AnswerThe number of such integers ( n ) is boxed{35}.</think>Given a positive integer ( n ) that satisfies the following conditions:1. It is an eight-digit number, and all its digits are 0 or 1.2. Its first digit is 1.3. The sum of the digits in the even positions equals the sum of the digits in the odd positions.We need to determine how many such ( n ) exist. 1. The first digit is fixed as 1, so we consider the remaining seven digits (positions 2 to 8).2. The odd positions are 1, 3, 5, 7 (with position 1 fixed as 1) and the even positions are 2, 4, 6, 8.3. Let ( S_{text{odd}} ) be the sum of the digits in positions 3, 5, 7, and ( S_{text{even}} ) be the sum of the digits in positions 2, 4, 6, 8. The condition is ( 1 + S_{text{odd}} = S_{text{even}} ).We need to find the number of combinations where ( S_{text{even}} - S_{text{odd}} = 1 ). This translates to finding the number of ways to choose ( k ) ones in the three odd positions (3, 5, 7) and ( k + 1 ) ones in the four even positions (2, 4, 6, 8) for ( k ) ranging from 0 to 3.The number of such combinations is given by the sum:[sum_{k=0}^{3} binom{3}{k} binom{4}{k+1}]Calculating each term:- For ( k = 0 ): ( binom{3}{0} binom{4}{1} = 1 cdot 4 = 4 )- For ( k = 1 ): ( binom{3}{1} binom{4}{2} = 3 cdot 6 = 18 )- For ( k = 2 ): ( binom{3}{2} binom{4}{3} = 3 cdot 4 = 12 )- For ( k = 3 ): ( binom{3}{3} binom{4}{4} = 1 cdot 1 = 1 )Summing these values:[4 + 18 + 12 + 1 = 35]Thus, the number of such integers ( n ) is (boxed{35}).,<think>Okay, so I need to figure out how many eight-digit numbers composed of 0s and 1s meet certain conditions. Let me break down the problem again:1. The number is eight digits long, all digits are 0 or 1.2. The first digit is 1.3. The sum of the digits in the even positions equals the sum of the digits in the odd positions.Alright, let's start by understanding the structure of the number. Since it's an eight-digit number and the first digit is 1, the number looks like 1abcdefg, where each of a, b, c, d, e, f, g can be 0 or 1. Wait, actually, let me count the positions properly. If it's eight digits, the positions are from 1 to 8. The first digit is position 1, then position 2, up to position 8. So positions 1,3,5,7 are odd positions, and positions 2,4,6,8 are even positions.Given that the first digit is 1 (position 1, which is an odd position), so the sum of digits in odd positions starts at 1. Then, the sum of digits in even positions must also equal that. So the sum of digits in even positions must be equal to the sum of digits in odd positions. Let me denote:Sum of odd positions (positions 1,3,5,7) = Sum of even positions (positions 2,4,6,8)But since the first digit is 1, the sum of odd positions is 1 plus the sum of digits in positions 3,5,7. Similarly, the sum of even positions is the sum of digits in positions 2,4,6,8.Let me define variables:Let’s denote the digits as d1, d2, d3, d4, d5, d6, d7, d8. Given d1 = 1.Sum_odd = d1 + d3 + d5 + d7 = 1 + d3 + d5 + d7Sum_even = d2 + d4 + d6 + d8We need Sum_odd = Sum_even.Therefore, 1 + d3 + d5 + d7 = d2 + d4 + d6 + d8Let’s rearrange this equation:d2 + d4 + d6 + d8 - d3 - d5 - d7 = 1Let’s let S = d2 + d4 + d6 + d8 - d3 - d5 - d7We need S = 1.Each of the variables d2, d3, d4, d5, d6, d7, d8 can be 0 or 1. Wait, but d1 is fixed as 1. So we have seven digits left: d2 to d8, each 0 or 1. So the total number of possible numbers is 2^7 = 128. But we need to find how many of these satisfy S = 1.So our problem reduces to counting the number of binary sequences (d2, d3, d4, d5, d6, d7, d8) such that S = d2 + d4 + d6 + d8 - d3 - d5 - d7 = 1.Alternatively, we can think of this as an equation:d2 + d4 + d6 + d8 = d3 + d5 + d7 + 1Since all variables are binary (0 or 1), let's analyze possible values.Let’s denote the left-hand side (LHS) as the sum of four binary variables (d2, d4, d6, d8), each 0 or 1, so their sum can range from 0 to 4.Similarly, the right-hand side (RHS) is the sum of three binary variables (d3, d5, d7) plus 1, so their sum can range from 1 (if all three variables are 0) to 4 (if all three are 1).Therefore, the equation is possible when LHS and RHS are both integers between 1 and 4. Let's denote:Let’s let k = LHS, then RHS = k as well, so:k = d3 + d5 + d7 + 1But since RHS = k, we have:d3 + d5 + d7 = k - 1But since d3, d5, d7 are binary variables, their sum can be from 0 to 3. Therefore, k - 1 must be between 0 and 3, so k must be between 1 and 4. Which is the same as LHS's possible range. So for each k from 1 to 4, we can have:Number of solutions where LHS = k and RHS = k.Therefore, the total number of solutions is the sum over k=1 to 4 of [number of ways LHS = k] multiplied by [number of ways RHS = k - 1].Therefore, total solutions = Σ [C(4, k) * C(3, k - 1)] for k = 1 to 4.Let me check that:For k=1: C(4,1)*C(3,0) = 4*1 = 4For k=2: C(4,2)*C(3,1) = 6*3 = 18For k=3: C(4,3)*C(3,2) = 4*3 = 12For k=4: C(4,4)*C(3,3) = 1*1 = 1Adding these up: 4 + 18 + 12 + 1 = 35.Wait, so according to this calculation, the total number of such numbers is 35.But let me verify this approach. The idea is that for each possible value of k (the LHS sum), the RHS sum must be k, which requires that the sum of d3, d5, d7 is k - 1. Since LHS and RHS are independent? Wait, but are they independent?Wait, actually, the variables involved in LHS and RHS are different. LHS is d2, d4, d6, d8; RHS is d3, d5, d7. Since these are different digits, their values are independent. Therefore, for each k, the number of ways to choose d2, d4, d6, d8 such that their sum is k is C(4, k), and the number of ways to choose d3, d5, d7 such that their sum is k - 1 is C(3, k - 1). Therefore, multiplying them gives the total number of combinations for that k, and summing over all k gives the total number of solutions. That seems correct.Therefore, the total number is 35.But let me check with another approach to be sure.Alternative approach:We have the equation:d2 + d4 + d6 + d8 - d3 - d5 - d7 = 1Let me rearrange this as:d2 + d4 + d6 + d8 = d3 + d5 + d7 + 1Let’s denote A = d2 + d4 + d6 + d8 and B = d3 + d5 + d7. Then the equation is A = B + 1.Since A and B are non-negative integers, A can range from 0 to 4, and B can range from 0 to 3. Therefore, A must be at least 1 (since B + 1 must be at least 1) and at most 4 (since B can be at most 3). So A ∈ {1, 2, 3, 4}, and correspondingly, B = A - 1 ∈ {0, 1, 2, 3}.Therefore, the number of solutions is the sum over A=1 to 4 of [number of ways A can be achieved] * [number of ways B = A - 1 can be achieved].Which is exactly the same as before:For A=1: C(4,1) * C(3,0) = 4 * 1 = 4For A=2: C(4,2) * C(3,1) = 6 * 3 = 18For A=3: C(4,3) * C(3,2) = 4 * 3 = 12For A=4: C(4,4) * C(3,3) = 1 * 1 = 1Total: 4 + 18 + 12 + 1 = 35.So that's the same result. Therefore, the total number of such numbers is 35.Wait a second, but let me check with a different perspective. Let's think of the entire number. The total number of digits is 8. The sum of digits in even positions equals the sum in odd positions. Also, the total sum of all digits is even, because sum_even = sum_odd, so total sum = 2*sum_even. However, the total sum is also equal to sum_odd + sum_even = 2*sum_even, which must be even.But in our case, since the first digit is 1, sum_odd is 1 + sum of d3, d5, d7. The total sum is 1 + sum of d3, d5, d7 + sum of d2, d4, d6, d8. Since sum_even = sum_odd, then total sum is 2*sum_odd, which is even. Therefore, the total sum of digits is even.But since all digits are 0 or 1, the total number of 1s is even. So the total number of 1s is even. But in our case, the first digit is 1, so the total number of 1s is 1 + number of 1s in the remaining seven digits. Therefore, 1 + (number of 1s in d2 to d8) must be even. Therefore, the number of 1s in d2 to d8 must be odd. Wait, but this seems like another constraint. But according to the problem statement, the sum of digits in even positions equals the sum in odd positions, which already implies that the total sum is even, hence the number of 1s is even. But since we have the first digit as 1, the rest must contribute an odd number of 1s. Therefore, the total number of 1s is 1 + odd = even, which is consistent. So this is a necessary condition, but is it sufficient?Wait, perhaps this can be another way to compute the number. Let's see.Total number of 1s in the entire number is even, and the first digit is 1. Therefore, the remaining seven digits must contain an odd number of 1s. But also, the sum of digits in even positions equals the sum in odd positions.But the sum in even positions is sum_even = d2 + d4 + d6 + d8Sum in odd positions is sum_odd = 1 + d3 + d5 + d7Since sum_even = sum_odd, we can write:sum_even - sum_odd = -1 + (d2 + d4 + d6 + d8 - d3 - d5 - d7) = 0So that equation is equivalent to:d2 + d4 + d6 + d8 - d3 - d5 - d7 = 1Which is the same as before. So maybe this isn't a different approach.Alternatively, maybe we can model this as a system of equations. Let’s consider variables:Let x = d2 + d4 + d6 + d8 (sum of even digits)Let y = d3 + d5 + d7 (sum of odd digits except the first digit)We have x = y + 1.Also, the total number of 1s in d2 to d8 is x + y, which must be odd (since total number of 1s in entire number is 1 + x + y, which must be even). Therefore, x + y is odd.But x = y + 1, so x + y = 2y + 1. Since 2y is even, 2y + 1 is odd, which satisfies the condition. Therefore, any x and y that satisfy x = y + 1 automatically satisfy x + y is odd. So the only constraint is x = y + 1, where x is the sum of four binary variables (even positions) and y is the sum of three binary variables (remaining odd positions).Therefore, the number of solutions is as previously calculated: 35.Another way to think about it: Each such number is determined by choosing positions such that the even positions have one more 1 than the remaining odd positions. Since the first digit is fixed as 1.Wait, but the even positions (positions 2,4,6,8) need to have a sum equal to the sum of the odd positions (positions 1,3,5,7). Since position 1 is already 1, the sum of the remaining odd positions (3,5,7) plus 1 must equal the sum of the even positions. Therefore, sum_even = sum_remaining_odd + 1.Thus, sum_even - sum_remaining_odd = 1.So the difference between the sum of the even positions and the sum of the remaining odd positions is 1. Let's denote sum_even = a and sum_remaining_odd = b. So a - b = 1.But a can be from 0 to 4, and b from 0 to 3. So possible pairs (a, b) are (1,0), (2,1), (3,2), (4,3). For each of these, the number of ways is C(4, a) * C(3, b). Which gives again 4*1 + 6*3 + 4*3 + 1*1 = 4 + 18 + 12 + 1 = 35.Therefore, this seems consistent.But perhaps to verify, let's take a small case. Suppose instead of 8 digits, we have a smaller number, say 4 digits. Then, similar conditions: first digit is 1, sum of even positions equals sum of odd positions. Let's see if the formula works.For a 4-digit number: positions 1,2,3,4. Position 1 is 1. Sum_odd = 1 + d3. Sum_even = d2 + d4. So equation: 1 + d3 = d2 + d4. Therefore, d2 + d4 - d3 = 1.Variables d2, d3, d4 each 0 or 1. How many solutions?Let's list all possibilities:Possible d3 can be 0 or 1.If d3=0: Then d2 + d4 = 1. So (d2, d4) can be (0,1) or (1,0). So two solutions.If d3=1: Then d2 + d4 = 2. So (d2, d4) must be (1,1). One solution.Total solutions: 2 + 1 = 3.Alternatively, using the formula: For 4-digit numbers, the equation is d2 + d4 - d3 =1.Which is similar to S = d2 + d4 - d3 =1.This can be thought of as:Sum_even (positions 2 and 4) = a, sum_remaining_odd (position 3) = b. So a - b =1.Possible (a,b): (1,0), (2,1). So for a=1, number of ways C(2,1)=2, and b=0, C(1,0)=1. So 2*1=2. For a=2, C(2,2)=1, and b=1, C(1,1)=1. So 1*1=1. Total 2+1=3. Which matches.Therefore, the formula works here. So in the original problem, the answer should indeed be 35.Therefore, I think the answer is 35. So the number of such n is 35, which in boxed form is boxed{35}.Final Answerboxed{35}</think>Given a positive integer ( n ) that satisfies the following conditions:1. It is an eight-digit number, and all its digits are 0 or 1.2. Its first digit is 1.3. The sum of the digits in the even positions equals the sum of the digits in the odd positions.We need to determine how many such ( n ) exist. First, we note that the number is of the form ( 1abcdefg ), where each letter represents a digit (0 or 1). The sum of the digits in the even positions (positions 2, 4, 6, 8) must equal the sum of the digits in the odd positions (positions 1, 3, 5, 7). Since the first digit is 1, the sum of the digits in the odd positions is ( 1 + d_3 + d_5 + d_7 ). The sum of the digits in the even positions is ( d_2 + d_4 + d_6 + d_8 ). Therefore, we need:[1 + d_3 + d_5 + d_7 = d_2 + d_4 + d_6 + d_8]Rearranging this equation, we get:[d_2 + d_4 + d_6 + d_8 - d_3 - d_5 - d_7 = 1]We need to count the number of solutions to this equation where each ( d_i ) is either 0 or 1. Let ( k ) be the sum of the even digits (positions 2, 4, 6, 8). Then the sum of the remaining odd digits (positions 3, 5, 7) must be ( k - 1 ). The number of ways to choose ( k ) digits from 4 even positions is ( binom{4}{k} ), and the number of ways to choose ( k - 1 ) digits from 3 remaining odd positions is ( binom{3}{k - 1} ). Summing over all possible values of ( k ):[sum_{k=1}^{4} binom{4}{k} binom{3}{k-1}]Calculating each term:- For ( k = 1 ): ( binom{4}{1} binom{3}{0} = 4 times 1 = 4 )- For ( k = 2 ): ( binom{4}{2} binom{3}{1} = 6 times 3 = 18 )- For ( k = 3 ): ( binom{4}{3} binom{3}{2} = 4 times 3 = 12 )- For ( k = 4 ): ( binom{4}{4} binom{3}{3} = 1 times 1 = 1 )Adding these together:[4 + 18 + 12 + 1 = 35]Thus, the number of such ( n ) is (boxed{35}).,<think>Okay, let's see. I need to find the number of 8-digit numbers composed of 0s and 1s, starting with 1, and where the sum of the digits in even positions equals the sum in the odd positions. Hmm. Let me break this down.First, the number is 8 digits long, all digits are 0 or 1. The first digit is 1. So the number looks like 1 followed by seven more digits, each 0 or 1. But the key condition is that the sum of digits in even positions equals the sum in odd positions.Let me clarify the positions. Since it's an 8-digit number, positions are 1 to 8. The problem mentions even positions and odd positions. Wait, in Chinese math problems, sometimes "even positions" might refer to the 2nd, 4th, 6th, 8th digits, and "odd positions" to the 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th. But let me confirm. Since the first digit is position 1 (odd), then yes, even positions are 2,4,6,8 and odd positions are 1,3,5,7. Got it.Given that the first digit is 1, which is part of the odd positions. So already, the sum of the odd positions is at least 1. Then, the sum of even positions must equal that. Since all digits are 0 or 1, the sums will be integers between 0 and 4 for even positions (since there are 4 even positions: 2,4,6,8) and for odd positions, since the first digit is 1, the sum can be from 1 to 4 (positions 1,3,5,7; four positions, but first is fixed at 1).Therefore, the sum of digits in odd positions (positions 1,3,5,7) must equal the sum in even positions (positions 2,4,6,8). Let's denote:Let S_odd = sum of digits in positions 1,3,5,7.S_even = sum of digits in positions 2,4,6,8.Given that position 1 is 1, so S_odd = 1 + d3 + d5 + d7, where d3, d5, d7 are digits (0 or 1) at positions 3,5,7.Similarly, S_even = d2 + d4 + d6 + d8, digits at positions 2,4,6,8.We need S_odd = S_even.So, 1 + d3 + d5 + d7 = d2 + d4 + d6 + d8.Let me rearrange this equation:d2 + d4 + d6 + d8 - d3 - d5 - d7 = 1.Let me denote the left-hand side as the difference between the sum of even digits and the sum of the non-first odd digits. That equals 1.Alternatively, since all variables are 0 or 1, maybe we can model this combinatorially.Let me consider the variables:Let’s define variables for the even positions: E1 = d2, E2 = d4, E3 = d6, E4 = d8. Each Ei can be 0 or 1.Similarly, the non-first odd positions: O1 = d3, O2 = d5, O3 = d7. Each Oj can be 0 or 1.Then, the equation is:E1 + E2 + E3 + E4 - O1 - O2 - O3 = 1.We can rewrite this as:E1 + E2 + E3 + E4 = O1 + O2 + O3 + 1.Let me note that the left side (sum of E's) can be from 0 to 4, and the right side (sum of O's +1) can be from 1 to 4 (since sum of O's is 0 to 3, so sum +1 is 1 to 4).Therefore, the possible values for both sides are 1, 2, 3, 4. Let's consider for each possible value k of the left side (sum of E's), which must equal k = (sum of O's) + 1. Therefore, sum of O's = k -1. So for each k from 1 to 4, the number of solutions would be the number of ways to choose E's such that their sum is k, multiplied by the number of ways to choose O's such that their sum is k-1.Therefore, the total number of such numbers is the sum over k=1 to 4 of [C(4, k) * C(3, k-1)].Let me verify this logic.For each k, the sum of E's is k. There are C(4, k) ways to choose which E's are 1s.Similarly, the sum of O's is k-1. There are C(3, k-1) ways to choose which O's are 1s.Since the choices of E's and O's are independent, for each k, multiply the number of ways for E's and O's, then sum over k.Yes, that seems right.Therefore, compute:For k=1:C(4,1)*C(3,0) = 4*1 = 4For k=2:C(4,2)*C(3,1) = 6*3 = 18For k=3:C(4,3)*C(3,2) = 4*3 = 12For k=4:C(4,4)*C(3,3) = 1*1 = 1Total: 4 + 18 + 12 + 1 = 35.Wait, 4 + 18 is 22, 22 +12 is 34, 34 +1 is 35. So total 35 such numbers.But let me confirm if this is correct.Wait, another way to think: Since the first digit is fixed as 1, the remaining 7 digits are divided into 3 odd digits (positions 3,5,7) and 4 even digits (positions 2,4,6,8). The sum of the 3 odd digits plus 1 (from the first digit) must equal the sum of the 4 even digits.Therefore, sum(evens) = sum(odds) + 1.So, sum(evens) - sum(odds) = 1.But sum(evens) can be 0-4, sum(odds) can be 0-3.But we can model this as equations where E - O =1, with E ∈ {0,1,2,3,4}, O ∈ {0,1,2,3}.Possible pairs (E,O):(1,0), (2,1), (3,2), (4,3).So for each of these, number of ways:For E=1 and O=0: C(4,1) * C(3,0) = 4*1=4For E=2 and O=1: C(4,2)*C(3,1)=6*3=18For E=3 and O=2: C(4,3)*C(3,2)=4*3=12For E=4 and O=3: C(4,4)*C(3,3)=1*1=1Total: 4+18+12+1=35. Same result. So that seems correct.Therefore, the answer is 35. But let me check with another approach to ensure.Alternative approach: Since the number is 8 digits starting with 1, so positions 1-8.Sum of digits in even positions (positions 2,4,6,8) equals sum of digits in odd positions (positions 1,3,5,7).But since position 1 is 1, sum_odd = 1 + sum of positions 3,5,7.Sum_even = sum of positions 2,4,6,8.Set sum_even = sum_odd => sum_even = 1 + sum_odd'.Where sum_odd' is the sum of positions 3,5,7 (each 0 or 1). So sum_odd' can be 0,1,2,3.Therefore, sum_even = 1 + sum_odd'.But sum_even can be 0,1,2,3,4. However, 1 + sum_odd' can be 1,2,3,4. Therefore, sum_even must be in 1,2,3,4.Therefore, sum_even can be 1,2,3,4, corresponding to sum_odd' being 0,1,2,3.Therefore, for each possible value of sum_odd' (0,1,2,3), we can compute the number of ways.But sum_odd' is the sum of three digits (positions 3,5,7). The number of ways to have sum_odd' = t is C(3,t). Then sum_even must be t +1, which is the sum of four digits (positions 2,4,6,8). The number of ways for sum_even = t +1 is C(4, t +1). Therefore, total for each t is C(3,t)*C(4,t+1). Then sum over t=0 to 3.Which gives:t=0: C(3,0)*C(4,1)=1*4=4t=1: C(3,1)*C(4,2)=3*6=18t=2: C(3,2)*C(4,3)=3*4=12t=3: C(3,3)*C(4,4)=1*1=1Total: 4 + 18 +12 +1=35. Same result. Therefore, 35.Therefore, the number of such integers n is 35. So the answer should be boxed{35}.Final Answerboxed{35}</think>Given a positive integer ( n ) that satisfies the following conditions:1. It is an eight-digit number, and all its digits are 0 or 1.2. Its first digit is 1.3. The sum of the digits in the even positions equals the sum of the digits in the odd positions.We need to determine the number of such integers ( n ).1. The number is an 8-digit number starting with 1, so positions 1 to 8 are considered. The even positions are 2, 4, 6, 8, and the odd positions are 1, 3, 5, 7.2. The sum of the digits in the odd positions (1, 3, 5, 7) must equal the sum of the digits in the even positions (2, 4, 6, 8). Since the first digit is 1, the sum of the digits in the odd positions is ( 1 + d_3 + d_5 + d_7 ), where ( d_3, d_5, d_7 ) are the digits at positions 3, 5, 7. The sum of the digits in the even positions is ( d_2 + d_4 + d_6 + d_8 ), where ( d_2, d_4, d_6, d_8 ) are the digits at positions 2, 4, 6, 8.3. We need ( 1 + d_3 + d_5 + d_7 = d_2 + d_4 + d_6 + d_8 ). This can be rearranged to ( d_2 + d_4 + d_6 + d_8 - d_3 - d_5 - d_7 = 1 ).We consider the possible values for the sum of the even positions (E) and the sum of the non-first odd positions (O). The equation becomes ( E = O + 1 ), where ( E ) can be 1, 2, 3, 4 and ( O ) can be 0, 1, 2, 3. For each possible value of ( E ) and corresponding ( O ), we calculate the number of ways to choose the digits:- For ( E = 1 ) and ( O = 0 ): ( binom{4}{1} times binom{3}{0} = 4 times 1 = 4 )- For ( E = 2 ) and ( O = 1 ): ( binom{4}{2} times binom{3}{1} = 6 times 3 = 18 )- For ( E = 3 ) and ( O = 2 ): ( binom{4}{3} times binom{3}{2} = 4 times 3 = 12 )- For ( E = 4 ) and ( O = 3 ): ( binom{4}{4} times binom{3}{3} = 1 times 1 = 1 )Summing these values gives the total number of such integers ( n ):[4 + 18 + 12 + 1 = 35]Thus, the number of such integers ( n ) is (boxed{35}).,<think>Okay, so I need to find the number of eight-digit numbers composed only of 0s and 1s, starting with 1, and where the sum of the digits in the even positions equals the sum of the digits in the odd positions. Hmm, let's break this down step by step.First, since it's an eight-digit number and the first digit is 1, the number looks like 1 followed by seven more digits, each of which is either 0 or 1. So the number is in the form: 1 _ _ _ _ _ _ _, where each blank is a 0 or 1.Now, the positions are counted from the first digit as position 1, right? So position 1 is the first digit (which is fixed as 1), position 2 is the second digit, up to position 8. The problem states that the sum of digits in even positions equals the sum of digits in odd positions.Let's clarify which positions are even and odd. Even positions are 2, 4, 6, 8, and odd positions are 1, 3, 5, 7. Wait, position 1 is odd, position 2 is even, etc. So in total, there are four even positions (positions 2,4,6,8) and four odd positions (1,3,5,7). But the first digit (position 1) is already fixed as 1, which is part of the odd positions' sum.So let's denote:Sum of even positions (positions 2,4,6,8): S_evenSum of odd positions (positions 1,3,5,7): S_oddGiven that all digits are 0 or 1, each position contributes either 0 or 1 to the sum. The first digit is 1, so S_odd is at least 1. The problem states that S_even must equal S_odd. Therefore, both S_even and S_odd must be equal, and each is the sum of four digits (since there are four even positions and four odd positions, including the first digit).But wait, the odd positions include position 1 (fixed as 1), and positions 3,5,7. So S_odd = 1 + sum of positions 3,5,7. Similarly, S_even = sum of positions 2,4,6,8.Since each of positions 3,5,7 can be 0 or 1, the sum of positions 3,5,7 can be 0,1,2, or 3. Therefore, S_odd can be 1,2,3,4. Similarly, S_even is the sum of four digits (positions 2,4,6,8), each 0 or 1, so S_even can be 0,1,2,3,4.But since S_even must equal S_odd, and S_odd is at least 1, S_even must also be at least 1. Therefore, the possible values for S_even and S_odd are 1,2,3,4. For each possible value k (from 1 to 4), the number of ways to choose the digits in the odd positions (excluding the first digit) such that their sum is k - 1 (since the first digit is 1), and the number of ways to choose the digits in the even positions such that their sum is k.So, let me formalize this. Let k be the common sum. Then:For S_odd = k, since S_odd = 1 + sum(positions 3,5,7), we have sum(positions 3,5,7) = k - 1.Similarly, S_even = sum(positions 2,4,6,8) = k.Therefore, for each k from 1 to 4, the number of valid numbers is equal to the number of ways to choose three digits (positions 3,5,7) with sum k - 1 multiplied by the number of ways to choose four digits (positions 2,4,6,8) with sum k.So, total number of such numbers N is:N = Σ [C(3, k - 1) * C(4, k)] for k = 1 to 4.Where C(n, k) is the combination of n items taken k at a time. Let's compute each term:For k=1:C(3, 0) * C(4, 1) = 1 * 4 = 4For k=2:C(3, 1) * C(4, 2) = 3 * 6 = 18For k=3:C(3, 2) * C(4, 3) = 3 * 4 = 12For k=4:C(3, 3) * C(4, 4) = 1 * 1 = 1Adding these up: 4 + 18 + 12 + 1 = 35.Wait, that seems straightforward, but let me verify if there are any constraints or if I missed something.First, the first digit is fixed as 1, which is correct. The remaining seven digits are positions 2-8. The even positions (2,4,6,8) and the odd positions (3,5,7). Wait, positions 3,5,7 are the remaining odd positions. So positions 3,5,7 each have three digits, which can be 0 or 1. So the sum of those three digits can be from 0 to 3, which gives S_odd (including the first digit) from 1 to 4. Similarly, positions 2,4,6,8 (four digits) sum from 0 to 4, so S_even can be from 0 to 4, but since S_even must equal S_odd, which is at least 1, so S_even is from 1 to 4.So, for each k from 1 to 4, we have:- The three digits (positions 3,5,7) must sum to k - 1. The number of ways is C(3, k - 1).- The four digits (positions 2,4,6,8) must sum to k. The number of ways is C(4, k).Multiply those for each k and sum.Calculations:k=1:C(3,0) = 1, C(4,1)=4, product=4k=2:C(3,1)=3, C(4,2)=6, product=18k=3:C(3,2)=3, C(4,3)=4, product=12k=4:C(3,3)=1, C(4,4)=1, product=1Total: 4 + 18 + 12 + 1 = 35.So the answer should be 35. But let me cross-verify this with another approach to be sure.Alternative approach: Since the number has eight digits, starting with 1. Let’s consider the total number of 1s. Since the sum of even positions equals the sum of odd positions, the total number of 1s must be even because S_even + S_odd = 2*S_even (since S_even = S_odd), so total number of 1s is even.But the first digit is 1, so total number of 1s is 1 (from position 1) + sum of other digits. Therefore, 1 + sum(positions 2-8) must be even. Therefore, sum(positions 2-8) must be odd. So the total number of 1s in positions 2-8 is odd.But also, S_even = S_odd. S_odd includes the first digit (1) plus sum(positions 3,5,7). S_even is sum(positions 2,4,6,8). So:sum(positions 3,5,7) + 1 = sum(positions 2,4,6,8)Therefore, sum(positions 2,4,6,8) - sum(positions 3,5,7) = 1Let’s denote sum(positions 2,4,6,8) as A, and sum(positions 3,5,7) as B. Then we have A - B = 1.But also, the total number of 1s in positions 2-8 is A + B, which must be odd, as we concluded earlier.But A - B = 1, so A = B + 1. Therefore, A + B = 2B + 1, which is always odd, as expected. So that checks out.So the problem reduces to finding the number of solutions to A = B + 1, where A is the sum of four digits (positions 2,4,6,8) and B is the sum of three digits (positions 3,5,7). Each of these digits is 0 or 1.So for each possible value of B, A must be B + 1. Let’s let B range from 0 to 3 (since it's the sum of three digits). Then A = B + 1 ranges from 1 to 4.So for each B from 0 to 3, the number of ways is C(3, B) * C(4, B+1). Then total number is:B=0: C(3,0)*C(4,1)=1*4=4B=1: C(3,1)*C(4,2)=3*6=18B=2: C(3,2)*C(4,3)=3*4=12B=3: C(3,3)*C(4,4)=1*1=1Same result: 4 + 18 + 12 + 1 = 35. So that's consistent.Another way to check: The total number of eight-digit numbers starting with 1 and having digits 0 or 1 is 2^7 = 128. The condition is that the sum of even positions equals the sum of odd positions. Since the first digit is 1, the sum of odd positions is 1 plus the sum of positions 3,5,7. The sum of even positions is the sum of positions 2,4,6,8.So the problem is equivalent to choosing positions 2,4,6,8 (four bits) and positions 3,5,7 (three bits) such that sum(positions 2,4,6,8) = 1 + sum(positions 3,5,7). Let’s denote sum(positions 2,4,6,8) as A and sum(positions 3,5,7) as B. So we need A = B + 1.Thus, for each possible value of B, A must be B + 1. Since B can be 0,1,2,3, then A can be 1,2,3,4 respectively. The number of such combinations is the product of combinations for each part.Which is the same as before. Therefore, 35 seems correct.But just to make sure, maybe we can think of generating functions.For the three digits (positions 3,5,7), each can be 0 or 1, so the generating function is (1 + x)^3.For the four digits (positions 2,4,6,8), each can be 0 or 1, so the generating function is (1 + x)^4.We need the coefficient of x^(B) in (1 + x)^3 multiplied by the coefficient of x^(B + 1) in (1 + x)^4, summed over B from 0 to 3.Which is exactly the same as:Σ [C(3, B) * C(4, B + 1)] for B=0 to 3.Which is 35 as calculated.Alternatively, using generating functions, the total generating function would be x * (1 + x)^3 * (1 + x)^4 = x*(1 + x)^7. Wait, let me think.Wait, no. If we want A = B + 1, then the generating function would be the product of the generating function for B (which is (1 + x)^3) and the generating function for A (which needs to be B + 1). Hmm, maybe this is a different approach.Alternatively, if we set A = B + 1, then the generating function is the sum over B of [C(3, B) * x^B] * [C(4, B + 1) * x^(B + 1)]. But this is equivalent to x * sum_{B=0}^3 C(3, B) * C(4, B + 1) x^{2B + 1} }, which might not directly help. Alternatively, maybe convolve the generating functions?Alternatively, think of the equation A - B = 1. The generating function for A - B is the coefficient of x^1 in the generating function (GF) of A times GF of -B. But GF of A is (1 + x)^4, GF of -B is the same as GF of B with x replaced by x^{-1}, which is (1 + x^{-1})^3. So the product is (1 + x)^4 * (1 + x^{-1})^3. The coefficient of x^1 in this product would give the number of solutions.Let’s compute this:(1 + x)^4 * (1 + x^{-1})^3 = (1 + x)^4 * (1 + 1/x)^3 = (1 + x)^4 * (x + 1)^3 / x^3 = (1 + x)^7 / x^3.Then, the coefficient of x^1 in this expression is the coefficient of x^4 in (1 + x)^7, which is C(7,4) = 35. So that's another way to see it, which gives the same result.Wow, that's a neat approach. So using generating functions, we can see that the answer is 35. That confirms our previous calculations.Therefore, the number of such eight-digit numbers n is 35.Final Answerboxed{35}</think>Given a positive integer ( n ) that satisfies the following conditions:1. It is an eight-digit number, and all its digits are 0 or 1.2. Its first digit is 1.3. The sum of the digits in the even positions equals the sum of the digits in the odd positions.We need to determine the number of such ( n ).1. The number is an eight-digit number starting with 1, so the positions are as follows: 1 (odd), 2 (even), 3 (odd), 4 (even), 5 (odd), 6 (even), 7 (odd), 8 (even).2. The sum of the digits in the even positions (positions 2, 4, 6, 8) must equal the sum of the digits in the odd positions (positions 1, 3, 5, 7).3. The first digit (position 1) is 1, contributing 1 to the sum of the odd positions. Let ( S_{text{odd}} ) be the sum of the digits in the odd positions and ( S_{text{even}} ) be the sum of the digits in the even positions. We need ( S_{text{odd}} = S_{text{even}} ).Given ( S_{text{odd}} = 1 + text{(sum of digits in positions 3, 5, 7)} ) and ( S_{text{even}} = text{(sum of digits in positions 2, 4, 6, 8)} ), we need ( 1 + text{(sum of digits in positions 3, 5, 7)} = text{(sum of digits in positions 2, 4, 6, 8)} ).Let ( k ) be the common sum. Then:- The sum of digits in positions 3, 5, 7 is ( k - 1 ).- The sum of digits in positions 2, 4, 6, 8 is ( k ).The number of ways to choose the digits in positions 3, 5, 7 (three digits) with sum ( k - 1 ) is ( binom{3}{k - 1} ).The number of ways to choose the digits in positions 2, 4, 6, 8 (four digits) with sum ( k ) is ( binom{4}{k} ).Summing over all possible values of ( k ) (1 to 4):[begin{aligned}sum_{k=1}^{4} binom{3}{k-1} binom{4}{k} &= binom{3}{0} binom{4}{1} + binom{3}{1} binom{4}{2} + binom{3}{2} binom{4}{3} + binom{3}{3} binom{4}{4} &= 1 cdot 4 + 3 cdot 6 + 3 cdot 4 + 1 cdot 1 &= 4 + 18 + 12 + 1 &= 35.end{aligned}]Thus, the number of such ( n ) is (boxed{35}).]

🔑:10.35.From the fact that the sum of the digits in the even positions equals the sum of the digits in the odd positions, we know that the number of 1s in the even positions equals the number of 1s in the odd positions.Since the first digit is fixed, there are only three positions in the odd positions that can be freely changed.Therefore, the total is sum_{k=1}^{4} mathrm{C}_{3}^{k-1} mathrm{C}_{4}^{k}=4+18+12+1=35 possible integers.

🧠:[<think>Okay, so I need to find all integers n greater than 0 such that when you take each digit of n, add 1 to each digit, multiply them all together, you get back the original number n. Hmm, interesting. Let me try to break this down step by step.First, let's make sure I understand the problem correctly. If n is a number, say 123, then its digits are a3=1, a2=2, a1=3. Then the product would be (1+1)(2+1)(3+1) = 2*3*4 = 24. But 24 is not equal to 123, so 123 wouldn't be a solution. Got it. So the problem is asking for all numbers n where this product of digits plus one equals the number itself.Let me start by considering single-digit numbers. For n from 1 to 9, the number has only one digit, so the product is just (a1 + 1). Therefore, the equation becomes n = (n + 1). Solving this gives n = n + 1, which implies 0 = 1, which is impossible. So there are no single-digit solutions. Wait, that can't be right. Wait, hold on. If n is a single-digit number, then n = a1 (since there's only one digit). So the equation is n = (a1 + 1). But a1 is the digit itself, so n = (n + 1). So n must equal n + 1, which is impossible. Therefore, there are no single-digit solutions. Got it. So all solutions must be at least two-digit numbers.Moving on to two-digit numbers. Let n be a two-digit number written as overline{ab}, where a is the tens digit and b is the units digit. Then n = 10a + b. According to the problem, n should equal (a + 1)(b + 1). So, 10a + b = (a + 1)(b + 1). Let me write that equation down:10a + b = (a + 1)(b + 1)Expanding the right side: (a + 1)(b + 1) = ab + a + b + 1So the equation becomes:10a + b = ab + a + b + 1Simplify both sides. Subtract b from both sides:10a = ab + a + 1Bring all terms to the left side:10a - ab - a - 1 = 0Factor terms:a(10 - b - 1) - 1 = 0 → a(9 - b) - 1 = 0So:a(9 - b) = 1Since a and b are digits, a is from 1 to 9 (since it's a two-digit number) and b is from 0 to 9.So, a and (9 - b) are positive integers (since a >=1, and 9 - b must be positive because a*(9 - b) = 1, which is positive). Therefore, 9 - b must be a positive integer, so b can be from 0 to 8.But since a and (9 - b) are integers such that their product is 1, the only possibilities are a=1 and 9 - b=1. Therefore:a = 19 - b = 1 → b = 8So the only two-digit solution is when a=1 and b=8, which is the number 18.Let me check that: 1 + 1 = 2, 8 + 1 = 9, 2*9 = 18. Yes, that works. So 18 is a solution.Are there other two-digit solutions? Let's see. If a and (9 - b) are both 1, because 1*1=1, but that would require a=1 and 9 - b=1, which again gives b=8, so the same solution. If there were another pair of integers such that a*(9 - b) =1, but since 1 is prime, the only factors are 1 and 1. So no other solutions here.Okay, so 18 is a two-digit solution.Now moving on to three-digit numbers. Let n be a three-digit number overline{abc}, so n = 100a + 10b + c. The product is (a + 1)(b + 1)(c + 1). So we need:100a + 10b + c = (a + 1)(b + 1)(c + 1)This seems more complicated. Let me see how to approach this. Since a, b, c are digits (a from 1 to 9, b and c from 0 to 9), perhaps we can find bounds on the product (a + 1)(b + 1)(c + 1) and compare it to 100a + 10b + c.First, note that for a three-digit number, 100 <= n <= 999.The product (a + 1)(b + 1)(c + 1) must be equal to n, which is at least 100.But let's see the maximum possible value of the product. For a three-digit number, a is at most 9, b and c at most 9. So (a + 1)(b + 1)(c + 1) <= (10)(10)(10) = 1000. But n is at most 999, so possible.But the product can be as low as (1 + 1)(0 + 1)(0 + 1) = 2*1*1 = 2, which is way less than 100. So there's a big range here.To find solutions, perhaps we can set up the equation:100a + 10b + c = (a + 1)(b + 1)(c + 1)This equation must hold. Let me rearrange it:100a + 10b + c = (a + 1)(b + 1)(c + 1)It's a bit complex. Maybe we can look for possible values of a, and then see what possible b and c could satisfy the equation. Let's start with a=1.Case a=1:Then the equation becomes:100(1) + 10b + c = (1 + 1)(b + 1)(c + 1) => 100 + 10b + c = 2(b + 1)(c + 1)So:2(b + 1)(c + 1) = 100 + 10b + cLet me denote x = b + 1 and y = c + 1. Then x ranges from 1 (if b=0) to 10 (if b=9), and y similarly from 1 to 10.Then the equation becomes:2xy = 100 + 10(x - 1) + (y - 1)Simplify the right side:100 + 10x - 10 + y - 1 = 100 - 10 -1 + 10x + y = 89 + 10x + ySo:2xy = 89 + 10x + yLet me rearrange:2xy - 10x - y = 89Factor terms:x(2y - 10) - y = 89Hmm, not sure. Maybe rearrange terms:2xy - y = 89 + 10xFactor y:y(2x - 1) = 89 + 10xSo:y = (89 + 10x)/(2x - 1)Since x and y are integers between 1 and 10, let's compute possible x (from 1 to 10) and see if (89 + 10x) is divisible by (2x - 1), and if the resulting y is an integer between 1 and 10.Let's compute for each x from 1 to 10:x=1:y=(89 +10*1)/(2*1 -1)=99/1=99. y=99, which is way beyond 10. Not valid.x=2:y=(89 +20)/(4 -1)=109/3≈36.33. Not integer.x=3:y=(89 +30)/(6 -1)=119/5=23.8. Not integer.x=4:y=(89 +40)/(8 -1)=129/7≈18.43. Not integer.x=5:y=(89 +50)/(10 -1)=139/9≈15.44. Not integer.x=6:y=(89 +60)/(12 -1)=149/11≈13.55. Not integer.x=7:y=(89 +70)/(14 -1)=159/13≈12.23. Not integer.x=8:y=(89 +80)/(16 -1)=169/15≈11.27. Not integer.x=9:y=(89 +90)/(18 -1)=179/17≈10.53. Not integer.x=10:y=(89 +100)/(20 -1)=189/19≈9.947. Approximately 9.947, which is not an integer.So none of the x from 1 to 10 gives an integer y between 1 and 10. Therefore, there are no solutions when a=1.Case a=2:Equation: 200 + 10b + c = (2 + 1)(b + 1)(c + 1) => 200 +10b + c = 3(b + 1)(c + 1)Again, let x = b + 1, y = c + 1. Then:3xy = 200 + 10(x - 1) + (y - 1)Simplify RHS:200 +10x -10 + y -1 = 189 +10x + ySo:3xy = 189 +10x + yRearranged:3xy -10x - y = 189Factor:x(3y -10) - y = 189Alternatively, group terms:3xy - y = 189 +10xy(3x -1) = 189 +10xThus:y = (189 +10x)/(3x -1)Again, x ranges from 1 to 10 (since b is 0-9), y must be 1-10. Let's check x from 1 to 10:x=1:y=(189 +10)/2=199/2=99.5. Not integer.x=2:y=(189 +20)/(6 -1)=209/5=41.8. No.x=3:y=(189 +30)/(9 -1)=219/8≈27.375. No.x=4:y=(189 +40)/(12 -1)=229/11≈20.81.

Not integer.No solutions here either.Case a=3:Equation: 300 +10b +c =4(b +1)(c +1)Again, let x = b +1, y = c +1:4xy =300 +10(x -1)+ y -1 =300 +10x -10 + y -1=289 +10x + ySo:4xy -10x - y =289Trying to solve for y:4xy - y = 289 +10xy(4x -1) =289 +10xThus,y=(289 +10x)/(4x -1)Check x=1 to10:x=1:(289 +10)/3=299/3≈99.666.

But y must be <=10. So invalid.x=10:989/99≈9.989. Not integer.So the only case where y was integer was x=9, y=11, but y is too large. So no solutions here.Thus, for three-digit numbers, there are no solutions.Now, moving on to four-digit numbers. Let's think: For a four-digit number, n = 1000a + 100b + 10c + d. The product would be (a +1)(b +1)(c +1)(d +1). The left side is at least 1000, while the right side is (a +1)(b +1)(c +1)(d +1). The maximum possible value of the right side is 10*10*10*10=10000, so it's possible, but maybe n is in the range 1000-9999.But solving this equation for four-digit numbers would be even more complicated. However, maybe the product (a +1)...(d +1) can't reach the number itself. Let's see.Wait, for n=1000, the product would be (1+1)(0+1)(0+1)(0+1)=2*1*1*1=2, which is way less. For n=9999, the product is (9+1)^4=10^4=10000, which is just over 9999. So 10000 is a product for digits 9999, but 10000 is not equal to 9999. Close, but not equal.But let's consider whether there could be a four-digit number where the product equals the number. Let's suppose n is a four-digit number such that n=(a+1)(b+1)(c+1)(d+1). Since n is four digits, 1000 <= n <=9999.The product (a+1)(b+1)(c+1)(d+1) must be between 1000 and 9999. The minimum product is (1+1)(0+1)(0+1)(0+1)=2, and the maximum is 10^4=10000. So possible, but unlikely.But maybe we can think of some potential candidates. For example, 1111: product is 2*2*2*2=16≠1111.Alternatively, 1296: let's see. 1296=6^4= (5+1)(5+1)(5+1)(5+1). But 1296 is 6*6*6*6, but 6 is a digit, but (5+1)=6. Wait, but 1296's digits are 1,2,9,6. So (1+1)(2+1)(9+1)(6+1)=2*3*10*7=420≠1296. Not equal.Alternatively, maybe 4096: digits 4,0,9,6. Product (5)(1)(10)(7)=350≠4096.Alternatively, think of numbers which are products of consecutive numbers. Wait, 40320 is 8!, but that's a five-digit number. Not helpful.Alternatively, maybe 24*24=576 (three-digit). 24*24*24=13824 (five-digit). Hmm.Alternatively, think of possible factor combinations. For example, 1000=2^3*5^3. So to get 1000 as a product of four numbers (each from 1 to 10), we need 2*2*2*5*5*5, but since we need four numbers, we can group them as 2*2*5*25, but 25 is too big. So maybe not possible.Alternatively, 1000=10*10*10, but we need four factors. So 10*10*10*1, but digits can't be 9 (since a+1=10 implies a=9, but then digits can be 9,9,9,0. Then n would be 9990. Check: (9+1)(9+1)(9+1)(0+1)=10*10*10*1=1000. But 9990≠1000. Doesn't work.Alternatively, 1000=5*5*5*8. So factors 5,5,5,8. Then digits would be 4,4,4,7. The number would be 4447. Let's check: (4+1)(4+1)(4+1)(7+1)=5*5*5*8=1000. But 4447≠1000. Not equal.Similarly, 1000=2*5*10*10. So digits 1,4,9,9. Number 1499. Product: 2*5*10*10=1000. 1499≠1000. Not equal.So seems like four-digit numbers are unlikely to satisfy the condition. Moreover, even if there were a four-digit number where the product equals the number, we would have to check each case, which is tedious.But maybe there's a pattern here. The only solution so far is 18. Let me check for numbers with more digits. Wait, but even for three digits, there was no solution, and as the number of digits increases, the number n increases exponentially (e.g., for four digits, it's up to 9999), but the product of (digit +1) grows multiplicatively. However, for numbers with more digits, the digits can't exceed 9, so each (digit +1) is at most 10. Therefore, the product is at most 10^m where m is the number of digits. However, the number n is at least 10^{m-1}. So, 10^{m} vs 10^{m-1}. The product is at most 10^m, but the number is at least 10^{m-1}. So for the product to be equal to the number, the product must be in the same range as the number. But for m >=4, 10^{m} is ten times 10^{m-1}, so the product can be up to 10 times the minimum number. However, numbers in that range have varying digits, and unless their digits are such that their (digit +1) product equals exactly the number, which is rare.But maybe there's another two-digit solution. Wait, we found 18. Let me check 29. (2+1)(9+1)=3*10=30≠29. 33: (3+1)(3+1)=16≠33. 24: 3*5=15≠24. 42:5*3=15≠42. 81:9*2=18≠81. So no other two-digit numbers.Wait, but what about numbers with leading zeros? No, the problem states n>0 written in the decimal system, so leading zeros are not allowed. So each digit from the left is at least 1 for the first digit, others can be 0.Wait, but the first digit is a_m, so in an m-digit number, a_m is from 1 to 9, and the rest can be from 0 to 9.Is there a three-digit number where the product equals the number?Wait, let's take 119. Then (1+1)(1+1)(9+1)=2*2*10=40≠119. 128: (1+1)(2+1)(8+1)=2*3*9=54≠128. 139:2*4*10=80≠139. 149:2*5*10=100≠149. 189:2*9*10=180≠189. 198:2*10*9=180≠198. 222:3*3*3=27≠222. 333:4*4*4=64≠333. 432:5*4*3=60≠432. 550:6*6*1=36≠550. 999:10*10*10=1000≠999.Hmm, not seeing any.Wait, perhaps check 255. (2+1)(5+1)(5+1)=3*6*6=108≠255. 135: (1+1)(3+1)(5+1)=2*4*6=48≠135. 144:2*5*5=50≠144. 128:2*3*9=54≠128.Alternatively, 24 is a two-digit number, but it's 24= (2+1)(4+1)=3*5=15. No. 15= (1+1)(5+1)=2*6=12. No. 12= (1+1)(2+1)=2*3=6. No.Wait, maybe the only solution is 18. Let me check higher numbers, maybe 1188. (1+1)(1+1)(8+1)(8+1)=2*2*9*9=324≠1188. 1296: (1+1)(2+1)(9+1)(6+1)=2*3*10*7=420≠1296. 1728: (1+1)(7+1)(2+1)(8+1)=2*8*3*9=432≠1728.Alternatively, think of factorials. 1!=1. Doesn't work. 2!=2. Doesn't work. 3!=6. Doesn't work. 4!=24. Check 24: (2+1)(4+1)=3*5=15≠24. 5!=120. (1+1)(2+1)(0+1)=2*3*1=6≠120. 6!=720. (7+1)(2+1)(0+1)=8*3*1=24≠720. Not helpful.Alternatively, powers of numbers. 2^4=16. (1+1)(6+1)=2*7=14≠16. 3^3=27. (2+1)(7+1)=3*8=24≠27. 4^3=64. (6+1)(4+1)=7*5=35≠64. 5^3=125. (1+1)(2+1)(5+1)=2*3*6=36≠125. 6^3=216. (2+1)(1+1)(6+1)=3*2*7=42≠216.Alternatively, maybe 22: (2+1)(2+1)=9≠22. 36: (3+1)(6+1)=4*7=28≠36. 45: (4+1)(5+1)=5*6=30≠45. 12:1+1=2, 2+1=3, 2*3=6≠12. 21:3*2=6≠21. 10: (1+1)(0+1)=2*1=2≠10. 15: (1+1)(5+1)=2*6=12≠15.Wait, so far, the only number that works is 18. Let's check if there's a number with more digits. Maybe 118. (1+1)(1+1)(8+1)=2*2*9=36≠118. 1188: as above, 324≠1188. 1344: (1+1)(3+1)(4+1)(4+1)=2*4*5*5=200≠1344.Alternatively, check if 18 is the only solution. Maybe numbers like 111...1 with some 8's.Wait, 118: product=2*2*9=36. 118≠36. 181:2*9*2=36≠181. 182:2*9*3=54≠182. 188:2*9*9=162≠188. 198:2*10*9=180≠198. 178:2*8*9=144≠178.Alternatively, check 222:3*3*3=27≠222. 333:4*4*4=64≠333. 444:5*5*5=125≠444. 555:6*6*6=216≠555. 666:7*7*7=343≠666. 777:8*8*8=512≠777. 888:9*9*9=729≠888. 999:10*10*10=1000≠999.Alternatively, check numbers with digits 9 and 1. 199:2*10*10=200≠199. 191:2*10*2=40≠191. 119:2*2*10=40≠119. 911:10*2*2=40≠911.Alternatively, check 1234: (1+1)(2+1)(3+1)(4+1)=2*3*4*5=120≠1234. 2345:3*4*5*6=360≠2345. 3456:4*5*6*7=840≠3456. 135:2*4*6=48≠135. 246:3*5*7=105≠246.Alternatively, check if 0 is allowed. Wait, n>0, so leading zeros not allowed. But maybe numbers with 0 in other digits. For example, 100: (1+1)(0+1)(0+1)=2*1*1=2≠100. 101:2*1*2=4≠101. 102:2*1*3=6≠102. 10 is two-digit, we checked.Alternatively, 108: (1+1)(0+1)(8+1)=2*1*9=18≠108. 180:2*9*1=18≠180. 801:9*1*2=18≠801.Alternatively, 1008: (1+1)(0+1)(0+1)(8+1)=2*1*1*9=18≠1008. 1000:2*1*1*1=2≠1000.Alternatively, 18 is the only solution. Let me think.Is there a possible number with more digits where the product equals the number? For example, 1188: product=2*2*9*9=324≠1188. 324:4*3*5=60≠324. 60:7*1=7≠60. 7: single-digit, no.Alternatively, let's think of the product of digits plus one. For n=18, (1+1)(8+1)=2*9=18. So that works. If there's another number where this holds, maybe with more digits, but each digit contributes a factor such that the total product is equal to the number. But with more digits, the number increases by orders of magnitude, while the product only increases multiplicatively. So, for example, a three-digit number would need the product of (a+1)(b+1)(c+1) to be equal to 100a +10b +c. But even the maximum product for a three-digit number is 10*10*10=1000, but 100a +10b +c is at most 999. So the product can be just over 999, but not by much. So maybe 999: product is 10*10*10=1000, but 1000≠999. Close, but no. Similarly, 999 is 10*10*10=1000. The next lower product would be 10*10*9=900. For 900, n=900, but (9+1)(0+1)(0+1)=10*1*1=10≠900. Not equal. So even if the product can reach 1000, which is over 999, but still, not equal to the number.Alternatively, think of 729, which is 9^3. (7+1)(2+1)(9+1)=8*3*10=240≠729. 240: (2+1)(4+1)(0+1)=3*5*1=15≠240. No.Alternatively, consider numbers where digits are 1 and 8. For example, 118:2*2*9=36≠118. 181:2*9*2=36≠181. 188:2*9*9=162≠188. 811:9*2*2=36≠811. 1118:2*2*2*9=72≠1118. 1181:2*2*9*2=72≠1181. 1818:2*9*2*9=324≠1818. 1188:2*2*9*9=324≠1188.Alternatively, numbers where the product equals the number. So 1, 2, ..., 9: none. 10: (1+1)(0+1)=2*1=2≠10. 11:2*2=4≠11. 12:2*3=6≠12. 13:2*4=8≠13. 14:2*5=10≠14. 15:2*6=12≠15. 16:2*7=14≠16. 17:2*8=16≠17. 18:2*9=18. This works. 19:2*10=20≠19. Then 20:3*1=3≠20. 21:3*2=6≠21. 22:3*3=9≠22. 23:3*4=12≠23. 24:3*5=15≠24. 25:3*6=18≠25. 26:3*7=21≠26. 27:3*8=24≠27. 28:3*9=27≠28. 29:3*10=30≠29. 30:4*1=4≠30. 31:4*2=8≠31. 32:4*3=12≠32. 33:4*4=16≠33. 34:4*5=20≠34. 35:4*6=24≠35. 36:4*7=28≠36. 37:4*8=32≠37. 38:4*9=36≠38. 39:4*10=40≠39. 40:5*1=5≠40. 41:5*2=10≠41. 42:5*3=15≠42. 43:5*4=20≠43. 44:5*5=25≠44. 45:5*6=30≠45. 46:5*7=35≠46. 47:5*8=40≠47. 48:5*9=45≠48. 49:5*10=50≠49. 50:6*1=6≠50. Continuing this way is tedious, but up to n=18, the only solution is 18. After that, up to three digits, no solutions found. Four-digit numbers seem unlikely. Maybe 18 is the only solution.Wait, let's check a three-digit number 199: (1+1)(9+1)(9+1)=2*10*10=200. But 200≠199. Close. 200: (2+1)(0+1)(0+1)=3*1*1=3≠200. 200 is not a solution. 200's product is 3, 199's product is 200. So near miss.Similarly, 219: (2+1)(1+1)(9+1)=3*2*10=60≠219. 549: (5+1)(4+1)(9+1)=6*5*10=300≠549.Wait, another near miss: 139: (1+1)(3+1)(9+1)=2*4*10=80≠139.Alternatively, 63: (6+1)(3+1)=7*4=28≠63. 28: (2+1)(8+1)=3*9=27≠28. 27: (2+1)(7+1)=3*8=24≠27. 24: (2+1)(4+1)=3*5=15≠24. 15: (1+1)(5+1)=2*6=12≠15. 12: (1+1)(2+1)=2*3=6≠12. 6: single-digit, no.Alternatively, check if 18 is the only solution. Given that we tried up to three digits and found nothing, and four digits are even less likely, maybe 18 is the only number satisfying the condition.Therefore, after checking all possible cases, the only integer n>0 that satisfies n=(a_m +1)...(a_1 +1) is 18.Final AnswerThe only such integer is boxed{18}.</think>To solve the problem, we need to find all integers ( n > 0 ) such that ( n ) is equal to the product of each of its digits plus one. First, we consider single-digit numbers. For any single-digit number ( n ), the equation becomes ( n = (n + 1) ), which is impossible. Therefore, there are no single-digit solutions.Next, we consider two-digit numbers. Let ( n ) be a two-digit number written as ( overline{ab} ). The equation becomes:[10a + b = (a + 1)(b + 1)]Expanding and simplifying, we get:[10a = ab + a + 1 implies a(9 - b) = 1]Since ( a ) and ( b ) are digits, the only solution is ( a = 1 ) and ( b = 8 ), leading to the number 18. Checking, we find ( (1 + 1)(8 + 1) = 2 times 9 = 18 ), which works.For three-digit numbers, we set up the equation:[100a + 10b + c = (a + 1)(b + 1)(c + 1)]We systematically check values for ( a ) from 1 to 9 and solve for ( b ) and ( c ). However, no solutions are found for any ( a ).Considering four-digit numbers and beyond, the product of digits plus one grows multiplicatively, but the number itself grows exponentially. This makes it unlikely for the product to equal the number. Checking specific cases and potential candidates confirms no solutions exist for numbers with more than two digits.Thus, the only solution found is the two-digit number 18. [boxed{18}],<think>Okay, let's try to solve this problem where we need to find all integers n > 0 such that when you take each digit of n, add 1 to each digit, multiply them all together, you get the original number n. Hmm, that sounds a bit tricky, but let me break it down step by step.First, let's understand the problem with an example. Suppose n is a two-digit number, say 12. Then the digits are a2=1 and a1=2. According to the problem, we need to compute (1+1)(2+1) = 2*3 = 6. But 6 is not equal to 12, so 12 doesn't satisfy the condition. So the question is, what numbers do satisfy this condition?Let me start by considering single-digit numbers. If n is a single digit, then it's written as a1, and the equation becomes n = (a1 + 1). Since n is a single digit, a1 is between 0 and 9. But n > 0, so a1 can be from 0 to 9, but n = a1 + 1. Therefore, n must be between 1 and 10. But since n is a single digit, n must be between 1 and 9. So n = a1 + 1 implies a1 = n - 1. But since a1 is a digit, n - 1 must be a digit (i.e., between 0 and 9). Therefore, n must be between 1 and 10. However, since n is a single-digit number, n can be from 1 to 9. But wait, if n is a single-digit number, then a1 = n, so the equation becomes n = (n + 1). That leads to n = n + 1, which implies 0 = 1. That's impossible. Wait, that can't be right. So there must be a mistake here.Wait, hold on. If n is a single-digit number, then its digits are just [a1], so n = a1. The equation given in the problem is n = (a1 + 1). Therefore, n = a1 + 1. But n is also equal to a1. Therefore, a1 = a1 + 1, which again implies 0 = 1, which is impossible. Therefore, there are no single-digit numbers satisfying this condition. That's an important point. So single-digit numbers are out of the question. Therefore, n must have at least two digits. Wait, but the problem states "an integer n > 0 written in the decimal system as a_m a_{m-1} ... a_1", where m is the number of digits. Wait, actually, in standard notation, if it's written as a_m a_{m-1} ... a_1, then a_1 is the units digit, a_2 is the tens digit, etc. So, for example, the number 123 is written as a_3=1, a_2=2, a_1=3. So m is the number of digits. Therefore, single-digit numbers would have m=1, but in that case, n = a_1, and the equation becomes n = (a1 +1). So as before, n = n + 1, which is impossible. Therefore, single-digit numbers can't be solutions. Therefore, all solutions must have at least two digits. So m ≥ 2.So moving on. Let's check two-digit numbers. Let's take a two-digit number n = 10a + b, where a is the tens digit (a_m, m=2) and b is the units digit (a_1). Then according to the problem, n should equal (a + 1)(b + 1). So 10a + b = (a + 1)(b + 1). Let's write this equation:10a + b = (a + 1)(b + 1)Let me expand the right-hand side:10a + b = ab + a + b + 1Simplify both sides:Left side: 10a + bRight side: ab + a + b + 1Subtracting the right side from both sides:10a + b - (ab + a + b + 1) = 0Simplify:10a - ab - a - 1 = 0Factor terms:(10a - a) - ab - 1 = 09a - ab - 1 = 0Factor out a:a(9 - b) - 1 = 0So,a(9 - b) = 1Since a and b are digits, a is from 1 to 9 (since it's a two-digit number), and b is from 0 to 9.Therefore, we need integers a and b such that a(9 - b) = 1.Since a and (9 - b) are positive integers (since a ≥ 1 and 9 - b must be positive because a(9 - b) = 1, which is positive. Therefore, 9 - b must divide 1. The divisors of 1 are 1 and -1. But since 9 - b is a positive integer (as 9 - b ≥ 9 - 9 = 0, but since a(9 - b)=1, 9 - b must be 1. Otherwise, if 9 - b was -1, then 9 - b = -1 => b = 10, which is impossible because b is a digit. So 9 - b =1, which gives b = 8. Then a=1.Therefore, the solution is a=1, b=8. Therefore, the two-digit number is 18.Let me check that. n=18. Digits are 1 and 8. Then (1+1)(8+1)=2*9=18. Yes, that works. So 18 is a solution.So that's the only two-digit solution.Now, let's check three-digit numbers. Let n = 100a + 10b + c, where a, b, c are digits (a ≠ 0). The equation is:100a + 10b + c = (a + 1)(b + 1)(c + 1)This seems more complex. Let's see if such numbers exist.First, note that n must equal the product of (each digit +1). Since n is a three-digit number, it's at least 100, and the product (a+1)(b+1)(c+1) must be equal to it. Let's consider the maximum possible value of the product. Each digit is at most 9, so (10)(10)(10)=1000. However, the product can't be more than 1000, but n is a three-digit number, so up to 999. So maybe possible. Let's see.We need to find a, b, c (digits, a ≥1) such that 100a + 10b + c = (a+1)(b+1)(c+1). Let's think about how to approach this.Since a is at least 1, and the left-hand side (LHS) is 100a + ... which is at least 100, and the right-hand side (RHS) is (a+1)(b+1)(c+1). Let's see if we can bound the possibilities.First, note that (a+1)(b+1)(c+1) must equal 100a +10b +c. Let's consider possible values of a.For a=1:RHS becomes (2)(b+1)(c+1) = 100 +10b +c.Let's denote this as 2(b+1)(c+1) = 100 +10b +c.We can rearrange:2(b+1)(c+1) -10b -c = 100Let's expand 2(b+1)(c+1):2bc + 2b + 2c + 2/n. (No) Wait.Another way to approach this problem:Another way to approach this problem:Another way to approach this problem:Another way to approach this problem:Wait, the chain of largest non-divisor. But maybe there's a different path.For example, starting from 95, adds 5 to get 100. But this would be a single step. However, the problem requires exactly five steps.Wait, starting from 95: each step, adding 1 to get 96, but wait, adding 1 each time, but we need exactly five steps:Wait, but in the problem, exactly five steps. So starting at 52.Final Answerboxed{52}]

🔑:To solve the problem, we need to find all positive integers ( n ) such that the decimal representation of ( n ), denoted as (overline{a_m a_{m-1} ldots a_1}), satisfies the equation:[ n = (a_m + 1)(a_{m-1} + 1) cdots (a_1 + 1) ]1. Express ( n ) in terms of its digits: [ n = sum_{i=1}^{m} 10^{i-1} a_i ] where ( a_i ) are the digits of ( n ).2. Set up the given equation: [ sum_{i=1}^{m} 10^{i-1} a_i = prod_{i=1}^{m} (a_i + 1) ]3. Rearrange the equation: [ sum_{i=2}^{m} (10^{i-1} - prod_{j=1}^{i-1} (a_j + 1)) a_i = 1 ] This equation implies that all summands are nonnegative, and one of them must be 1 while the others are 0.4. Consider the case ( m = 2 ): [ n = 10a_2 + a_1 ] [ n = (a_2 + 1)(a_1 + 1) ] We need to find ( a_1 ) and ( a_2 ) such that: [ 10a_2 + a_1 = (a_2 + 1)(a_1 + 1) ] Expanding and simplifying: [ 10a_2 + a_1 = a_2 a_1 + a_2 + a_1 + 1 ] [ 10a_2 = a_2 a_1 + a_2 + 1 ] [ 9a_2 = a_2 a_1 + 1 ] [ 9a_2 - 1 = a_2 a_1 ] [ a_1 = frac{9a_2 - 1}{a_2} ] For ( a_1 ) to be an integer, ( 9a_2 - 1 ) must be divisible by ( a_2 ). Testing values of ( a_2 ) from 1 to 9, we find: [ a_2 = 2 implies a_1 = frac{9 cdot 2 - 1}{2} = frac{18 - 1}{2} = frac{17}{2} quad text{(not an integer)} ] [ a_2 = 1 implies a_1 = frac{9 cdot 1 - 1}{1} = 8 ] Thus, ( n = 10 cdot 1 + 8 = 18 ).5. Consider the case ( m geq 3 ): If ( m geq 3 ), then: [ prod_{j=1}^{m-1} (a_j + 1) = 10^{m-1} ] This implies: [ a_1 = a_2 = cdots = a_{m-1} = 9 ] However, this is impossible because the product of digits ( a_i + 1 ) would be too large to match the sum of the digits multiplied by powers of 10.Therefore, the only solution is when ( m = 2 ) and ( n = 18 ).The final answer is ( boxed{18} ).

🧠:[<think>Okay, let's see. The problem is about a rectangle with a perimeter of 6 and an area of 1. Then we need to construct two squares using the sides of the rectangle as their sides and find the sum of the areas of these two squares. The options are A:7, B:9, C:5, D:11. Hmm.First, let me recall some basics about rectangles. The perimeter of a rectangle is calculated by 2*(length + width). The area is length*width. So if we let the length be 'l' and the width be 'w', then according to the problem:Perimeter = 2*(l + w) = 6. So, dividing both sides by 2, we get l + w = 3.Area = l*w = 1.So we have a system of equations:1. l + w = 32. l*w = 1We need to find l and w. Once we have them, we can construct two squares: one with side length l and another with side length w. The areas of those squares would be l² and w² respectively. Then the sum of the areas would be l² + w². So we need to find l² + w² given that l + w = 3 and l*w = 1.Hmm, how do we find l² + w² from l + w and l*w? Oh, right! There's a formula that relates these. Remember that (l + w)² = l² + 2lw + w². So if we subtract 2lw from both sides, we get l² + w² = (l + w)² - 2lw. That's it!So substituting the known values:(l + w)² = 3² = 92lw = 2*1 = 2Therefore, l² + w² = 9 - 2 = 7. So the sum of the areas of the two squares is 7. Looking at the options, A is 7. So the answer should be A.Wait, let me check if I did everything correctly. Let me verify the steps again.Given perimeter 6: 2(l + w) = 6 => l + w = 3. That's correct.Area is l*w = 1. Correct.Then we need l² + w². Using the identity (l + w)² = l² + 2lw + w². So rearranged, l² + w² = (l + w)² - 2lw. Plugging in the numbers, 3² - 2*1 = 9 - 2 = 7. That seems right.Alternatively, just to make sure, maybe I can solve for l and w explicitly. Let's see. If l + w = 3 and l*w = 1, then these are the solutions to the quadratic equation x² - 3x + 1 = 0. Let's compute the roots.Using the quadratic formula: x = [3 ± sqrt(9 - 4)]/2 = [3 ± sqrt(5)]/2. So l and w are (3 + sqrt(5))/2 and (3 - sqrt(5))/2. Let's compute l² and w².First, compute l²:[(3 + sqrt(5))/2]^2 = [9 + 6sqrt(5) + 5]/4 = [14 + 6sqrt(5)]/4 = [7 + 3sqrt(5)]/2.Similarly, w²:[(3 - sqrt(5))/2]^2 = [9 - 6sqrt(5) + 5]/4 = [14 - 6sqrt(5)]/4 = [7 - 3sqrt(5)]/2.Adding them together: [7 + 3sqrt(5)]/2 + [7 - 3sqrt(5)]/2 = (7 + 7)/2 + (3sqrt(5) - 3sqrt(5))/2 = 14/2 + 0 = 7. So that confirms it. The sum is indeed 7.Therefore, the answer is A:7.Final Answerboxed{A}</think>Given a rectangle with a perimeter of 6 and an area of 1, we need to find the sum of the areas of two squares constructed using the sides of the rectangle.First, we denote the length and width of the rectangle as ( l ) and ( w ) respectively.

So the problem is about a rectangle with a perimeter of 6 and an area of 1. Then we need to construct two squares using the sides of the rectangle and find the sum of their areas. The options are A:7, B:9, C:5, D:11. Hmm.First, let's recall that the perimeter of a rectangle is calculated as 2*(length + width). Here, the perimeter is 6, so that equation would be 2*(l + w) = 6. Dividing both sides by 2, we get l + w = 3. So the sum of the length and width is 3.Next, the area is given as 1. The area of a rectangle is length*width, so l*w = 1.So now we have two equations:1. l + w = 32. l * w = 1I need to find the sum of the areas of two squares constructed with the sides of the rectangle. That means one square will have side length l and area l², the other will have side length w and area w². So the total area would be l² + w². The question is asking for this sum.Hmm, how do I find l² + w² given l + w and l*w?Oh! There's a formula that relates these. I remember that (l + w)² = l² + 2lw + w². So if we subtract 2lw from both sides, we get l² + w² = (l + w)² - 2lw. That might help here.Let me plug in the values we have. We know l + w = 3, so (l + w)² = 9. And we know l*w = 1, so 2lw = 2*1 = 2. Therefore, l² + w² = 9 - 2 = 7. So the sum of the areas of the two squares is 7. Looking at the options, A is 7. So the answer should be A?Wait, but let me double-check. Maybe I made a mistake somewhere. Let me go through each step again.Perimeter is 6, so 2(l + w) = 6 => l + w = 3. Correct. Area is l*w = 1. Correct. Then, we need l² + w². Using the identity, (l + w)² = l² + 2lw + w². Therefore, l² + w² = (l + w)² - 2lw. Plugging in the numbers: (3)² - 2*(1) = 9 - 2 = 7. That seems right.Alternatively, maybe solve for l and w explicitly? Let's see. If l + w = 3 and l*w = 1, then we can set up a quadratic equation. Let me let l be the variable. Then, since l + w = 3, w = 3 - l. Then, substituting into the area equation:l*(3 - l) = 1Which becomes 3l - l² = 1Rearranging terms: l² - 3l + 1 = 0Using the quadratic formula, l = [3 ± sqrt(9 - 4)] / 2 = [3 ± sqrt(5)] / 2So l = (3 + sqrt(5))/2 and w = (3 - sqrt(5))/2, or vice versa.Then, let's compute l² + w².First, compute l²:[(3 + sqrt(5))/2]^2 = (9 + 6sqrt(5) + 5)/4 = (14 + 6sqrt(5))/4 = (7 + 3sqrt(5))/2Similarly, w²:[(3 - sqrt(5))/2]^2 = (9 - 6sqrt(5) + 5)/4 = (14 - 6sqrt(5))/4 = (7 - 3sqrt(5))/2Adding them together:(7 + 3sqrt(5))/2 + (7 - 3sqrt(5))/2 = (7 + 7)/2 + (3sqrt(5) - 3sqrt(5))/2 = 14/2 + 0 = 7Yep, same result. So even when calculating directly, the sum is 7. Therefore, the answer is 7, which is option A.Just to make sure there are no tricks here. The problem says "two squares are constructed with the sides of the rectangle as their sides." So each side of the rectangle becomes the side of a square, so their areas are l² and w². Then, sum is l² + w². Which we found to be 7. So I think that's solid. The answer should be A.Final Answerboxed{A}</think>Given a rectangle with a perimeter of 6 and an area of 1, we need to find the sum of the areas of two squares constructed using the sides of the rectangle.First, we use the perimeter to find the sum of the length and width:[2(l + w) = 6 implies l + w = 3]Next, we use the area to find the product of the length and width:[lw = 1]We need to find the sum of the areas of the squares, which is ( l^2 + w^2 ).

🧠:[<think>Okay, let's see. I need to figure out the largest number in the sample if product number 36 is included. The problem says it's a systematic sampling method with a set of 90 products numbered from 0 to 89, and the sample size is 9. Hmm, systematic sampling usually involves selecting every k-th element from a population. Let me recall how systematic sampling works.First, in systematic sampling, the sampling interval k is calculated by dividing the population size N by the desired sample size n. Here, the population size N is 90, and the sample size n is 9. So, k would be N/n = 90/9 = 10. That means every 10th product is selected. But wait, let me confirm that. If we have 90 products and we want 9 samples, then 90 divided by 9 is indeed 10. So the interval k is 10. Now, in systematic sampling, you start by selecting a random starting point between 0 and k-1. Since k is 10, the starting point would be a random number between 0 and 9. Then, you add k each time to get the next sample. For example, if the starting point is 3, the samples would be 3, 13, 23, 33, 43, 53, 63, 73, 83. So each time you add 10. But in this problem, they mention that product number 36 is in the sample. So, we need to determine what starting point would result in 36 being included. Then, once we know the starting point, we can list all the numbers in the sample and find the largest one. Let me break it down step by step. First, since the interval is 10, the samples will be spaced 10 numbers apart. So, the sample numbers will be: s, s+10, s+20, s+30, ..., s+80where s is the starting number between 0 and 9. Each sample is s + 10*i for i from 0 to 8. Given that 36 is in the sample, that means that 36 ≡ s mod 10. Because each element in the sample is congruent to the starting number modulo 10. So, 36 divided by 10 is 3 with a remainder of 6. Therefore, the starting number s must be 6. Because 36 mod 10 is 6. Wait, let me verify that. If s is 6, then the samples would be 6, 16, 26, 36, 46, 56, 66, 76, 86. Yes, 36 is in there. So the starting number is 6. Therefore, the sample numbers are 6, 16, 26, 36, 46, 56, 66, 76, 86. The largest number in this sample is 86. But hold on, let me check if there's another possible starting point. Suppose the starting point is 6, as we thought. But what if there's a different interval or different approach? Wait, no. In systematic sampling, once you determine the interval, which is 10 here, and the starting point, the rest follows. Since 36 is in the sample, we can figure out the starting point by 36 mod 10 = 6, so starting point is 6. But let me think again. Suppose k is 10, so starting from s, then the next elements are s, s+10, ..., s+80. Since we have 9 elements, the last element is s + 80. But since the population is numbered up to 89, s + 80 must be less than 90. Since s is between 0 and 9, s + 80 is between 80 and 89. So the last element would be 89 if s is 9. But in our case, s is 6. So the last element is 6 + 80 = 86. So that's the largest number in the sample. Wait, but let me make sure that this is indeed the case. Let me take an example. If starting number is 6, then the samples are 6, 16, 26, 36, 46, 56, 66, 76, 86. All of these are within 0 to 89. The next one after 86 would be 96, which is beyond 89, so we stop at 86. So that's correct. Therefore, if 36 is included in the sample, the starting number must be 6, and the largest number is 86. Alternatively, could there be another starting point that includes 36? Let's see. For example, suppose the interval was not 10. Wait, no, the interval is determined by N/n = 90/9 = 10. So the interval must be 10. Therefore, systematic sampling with interval 10. So, the starting point can only be 0 through 9, and then adding 10 each time. Since 36 is in the sample, 36 must be equal to s + 10*i for some integer i. So, solving for s: s = 36 - 10*i. But s must be between 0 and 9. So, let's find i such that 36 - 10*i is between 0 and 9. If i = 3: 36 - 30 = 6. So s = 6. Which is within 0-9. If i=4: 36 - 40 = -4, which is invalid. i=2: 36 -20 = 16, which is outside 0-9. So only i=3 gives s=6. Therefore, the starting point is indeed 6, and the samples go up to 86. Therefore, the largest number in the sample is 86. Wait, but let me check another angle. What if the sampling is done differently? For example, sometimes in systematic sampling, especially if the population size isn't a perfect multiple of the sample size, you might use a different approach. But in this case, N=90 and n=9, which is exactly 10. So 90/9=10, so it's a perfect multiple, so there shouldn't be any issues. So, in that case, the standard systematic sampling applies. Start at random s between 0 and 9, then take every 10th. Therefore, with s=6, the sample is 6,16,...,86. So 86 is the largest. Hence, the answer should be 86. Final AnswerThe largest number in the sample is boxed{86}.</think>To determine the largest number in the sample when product number 36 is included, we use systematic sampling. 1. Calculate the sampling interval (k): [ k = frac{N}{n} = frac{90}{9} = 10 ] The interval ( k ) is 10, meaning every 10th product is selected.2. Determine the starting point (s): - Product number 36 is in the sample. Since the interval is 10, we find the remainder when 36 is divided by 10: [ 36 mod 10 = 6 ] Therefore, the starting point ( s ) is 6.3. List the sample elements: - Starting from 6 and adding 10 each time, the sample elements are: 6, 16, 26, 36, 46, 56, 66, 76, 86.4. Identify the largest number: - The largest number in the sample is 86.Thus, the largest number in the sample is (boxed{86}).,<think>Okay, let's see. The problem is about systematic sampling. So, first, I need to remember what systematic sampling is. From what I recall, systematic sampling is a method where you select members from a larger population at regular intervals. For example, if you have a population of size N and you want a sample of size n, you calculate the interval k by dividing N by n. Then you randomly select a starting point between 1 and k, and then every kth element is included in the sample. In this problem, we have 90 products numbered from 0 to 89. That makes sense because 90 items would be numbered 0 through 89, which is 90 numbers. We need to draw a sample of size 9 using systematic sampling. The question is, if product number 36 is in the sample, then what is the largest number in the sample?So, first, let's figure out the sampling interval. The interval k is calculated by dividing the population size by the sample size. Here, population size N is 90, sample size n is 9. So k = 90 / 9 = 10. So the interval is 10. That means every 10th product is selected. But wait, in systematic sampling, you start at a random number between 0 and k-1, right? Because if you have k intervals, the starting point should be random within the first interval. Since k is 10 here, the starting point would be a random number between 0 and 9. Then you add 10 each time to get the rest of the sample.But the question says that product number 36 is in the sample. So we need to figure out what starting point would result in 36 being included. Then, once we know the starting point, we can list all the numbers in the sample and find the largest one.Let's denote the starting point as s. Then the sample would be s, s+10, s+20, ..., up to 9 numbers. Since we have 90 products, the numbers would wrap around if necessary? Wait, no, systematic sampling usually doesn't wrap around. It's just a straight linear selection. But in this case, since 90 is divisible by 10, and 90/10=9, which is the sample size. Wait, maybe there's a different approach here. Wait, sometimes systematic sampling can be done by dividing the population into n groups of k elements and then selecting one from each group. But I need to be careful.Wait, let me confirm. If the population size is N=90, and desired sample size n=9, then the sampling interval k is N/n = 10. So we pick every 10th element starting from some random start between 0 and 9. So for example, if the start is 3, then the sample would be 3, 13, 23, 33, 43, 53, 63, 73, 83. That's 9 elements. Similarly, if the start is 5, then 5,15,...,85. So each sample has 9 elements, spaced 10 apart. So, in this setup, each sample is composed of numbers that are congruent modulo 10 to the starting number.Given that product 36 is in the sample, that means that 36 mod 10 = 6. So the starting number must be 6. Because 36 divided by 10 is 3 with a remainder of 6. So the starting number s must be 6. Then the sample would be 6, 16, 26, 36, 46, 56, 66, 76, 86. So those are the 9 numbers. Therefore, the largest number in the sample would be 86. Therefore, the answer should be 86.But let me check this again to make sure I didn't make a mistake. If starting number is 6, then adding 10 each time:6, 16, 26, 36, 46, 56, 66, 76, 86. Yes, that's 9 numbers, and 86 is the largest. If the starting number were 36, but 36 is larger than the interval k=10, so the starting number is actually 36 mod 10 = 6, which gives s=6. So that seems correct.Alternatively, maybe there's a different way to compute the starting point. Let's think. If the sample includes 36, then 36 must be one of the elements in the systematic sample. The systematic sample is formed by starting at s, then s + 10, s + 20, etc. So 36 must equal s + 10*m, where m is some integer between 0 and 8 (since the sample size is 9). So s = 36 - 10*m. Since s has to be between 0 and 9 (because k=10), we can solve for m.So 36 - 10*m >= 0 => m <= 36/10 => m <= 3.6. Since m must be an integer, m=3. Then s = 36 - 10*3 = 36 - 30 = 6. So s=6. Therefore, the starting point is 6, which gives the sample numbers as 6,16,26,36,46,56,66,76,86. Hence, the largest number is 86.Alternatively, perhaps there's another starting point that could include 36? Wait, no, because if s is between 0 and 9, and you add multiples of 10, then each number in the sample is congruent to s modulo 10. Since 36 modulo 10 is 6, the starting number must be 6. Therefore, there is only one possible starting point that includes 36, which is 6. Therefore, the sample must start at 6, and the largest number is 86.Wait, let me confirm once again. Suppose the starting point is 6, then the next numbers are 6,16,26,36,46,56,66,76,86. That's 9 numbers. 86 is the 9th number. 86 +10 would be 96, which is beyond 89, so we stop at 86. So yes, 86 is the largest. Therefore, the answer is 86. I think that's correct.Final AnswerThe largest number in the sample is boxed{86}.</think>To solve the problem of finding the largest number in the sample when product number 36 is included, we use systematic sampling. Here are the key steps:1. Determine the sampling interval: The population size ( N ) is 90, and the sample size ( n ) is 9. The interval ( k ) is calculated as: [ k = frac{N}{n} = frac{90}{9} = 10 ]2. Identify the starting point: Since product number 36 is in the sample, we need to find the starting point ( s ) such that 36 is included. The starting point ( s ) must satisfy: [ 36 equiv s pmod{10} ] Calculating the remainder when 36 is divided by 10: [ 36 div 10 = 3 text{ remainder } 6 implies 36 equiv 6 pmod{10} ] Therefore, the starting point ( s ) is 6.3. List the sample elements: Starting from 6 and adding 10 repeatedly, the sample elements are: [ 6, 16, 26, 36, 46, 56, 66, 76, 86 ]4. Identify the largest number: The largest number in the sample is 86.Thus, the largest number in the sample is (boxed{86}).]

🔑:Since the total number of products is 90 and the sample size is 9, the sampling interval is calculated as 90 div 9 = 10. Let the first number in the sample be x. Since product number 36 is in the sample and considering the sampling interval of 10, we can express 36 as 3 times 10 + 6. This indicates that the first number in the sample, x, is 6. Given the sampling interval of 10, each subsequent number in the sample will be 10 more than the previous one. Since there are 9 products in the sample, and we have determined that the first number is 6, the last (ninth) product number in the sample sequence will be 6 + (9-1) times 10, where (9-1) represents the count of intervals between the first and last product in the sample.Calculating this, we get 6 + 8 times 10 = 6 + 80 = 86. Therefore, the largest number in the sample is boxed{86}.

🧠:[<think>Okay, so I need to find a fraction that's equal to 73/95, and when I add the numerator and denominator of that fraction, the sum should be the smallest possible square of a natural number. Hmm, let's break this down step by step.First, I know that equivalent fractions can be found by multiplying both the numerator and denominator by the same number. So, if I have 73/95, another fraction equal to this would be (73×k)/(95×k) where k is a natural number. The problem is asking for such a k where the sum (73k + 95k) is the smallest perfect square.Wait, let me check: The sum is numerator + denominator, which would be 73k + 95k = (73 + 95)k = 168k. So, 168k needs to be a perfect square. And we have to find the smallest such k so that 168k is a perfect square, then the fraction would be 73k/95k.Therefore, the problem reduces to finding the smallest natural number k such that 168k is a perfect square.But how do I find such a k? Let's recall that a perfect square has even exponents in its prime factorization. So, first, I need to factorize 168 into primes.168 divided by 2 is 8484 divided by 2 is 4242 divided by 2 is 2121 divided by 3 is 77 is prime. So, the prime factors of 168 are 2³ × 3¹ × 7¹.To make 168k a perfect square, all the exponents in the prime factorization must be even. So, looking at 2³, we need another 2 to make it 2⁴. For 3¹, we need another 3 to make it 3². For 7¹, we need another 7 to make it 7². Therefore, k must be 2 × 3 × 7 = 42.Let me verify that. If k is 42, then 168k = 168×42. Let's compute 168×42. 168×40 is 6720, and 168×2 is 336, so total is 6720 + 336 = 7056. Is 7056 a perfect square? Let me check the square of 84: 84² is 7056. Yes! So, 84 squared is 7056. Therefore, k is 42.Therefore, the fraction is (73×42)/(95×42). Let me compute those numbers. 73×42: 70×42 = 2940, and 3×42 = 126, so 2940 + 126 = 3066. Similarly, 95×42: 90×42 = 3780, 5×42=210, so 3780 + 210 = 3990. So the fraction is 3066/3990, and the sum 3066 + 3990 = 7056, which is 84². That checks out.But wait, the problem says "the fraction that is equal to the fraction 73/95, and the sum of the numerator and denominator is the smallest possible square of a natural number." So, the answer should be the fraction 3066/3990, but simplified if possible. Wait, but since 73 and 95 are co-prime? Let me check the GCD of 73 and 95. 73 is prime, and 95 is 5×19. 73 doesn't divide into 5 or 19, so GCD(73,95)=1. Therefore, 73/95 is already in simplest form. Therefore, the equivalent fraction would be 73×42 / 95×42, which is 3066/3990. But since 73 and 95 are co-prime, this is the simplest form. So the answer is 3066/3990? But maybe they want it in the boxed form as 73/95 with k, but the question says "the fraction that is equal to..." so probably 3066/3990. But let me check if there's a smaller k. Wait, 42 is the minimal k required to make 168k a perfect square, so that's the answer.Wait, but let's confirm once again. Let's see, 168 factors as 2³×3×7. To make each exponent even, we need to multiply by 2×3×7=42. So, 168×42=2³×3×7×2×3×7=2⁴×3²×7², which is (2²×3×7)²= (4×3×7)²= (84)². So, that's correct. Therefore, the minimal k is 42, leading to the sum 84². Therefore, the fraction is 73×42 / 95×42 = 3066/3990, which reduces to 73/95 when simplified. But since they want the actual fraction where the sum is a square, the answer should be 3066/3990. Wait, but maybe they accept 73/95 with the note that the sum is 168, which isn't a square, but when multiplied by 42, it becomes 7056. So, the answer must be 3066/3990. But let me check once again.Alternatively, perhaps the problem is intended to have the same fraction but with numerator and denominator added to be a square. So, 73/95 is the original, and we need to find another fraction equal to that with numerator + denominator = smallest square. So, 168k must be a square, so k must be 42, giving 3066/3990. So, yes, the answer is 3066/3990. Alternatively, maybe there's a step I missed here.Wait, maybe there's a different approach. Suppose we let the numerator be 73k and denominator 95k. Then 73k + 95k = 168k = n². We need the smallest n such that n² is divisible by 168, so n must be a multiple of the square root of 168 times something. Wait, but 168 factors into 2³×3×7. So, for n² to be divisible by 168, n must be divisible by 2²×3×7=4×3×7=84. So, the minimal n is 84, which gives n²=7056. Therefore, k is 7056 / 168 = 42. So, same result. Therefore, the fraction is 73×42 / 95×42 = 3066/3990. So, I think this is correct.Therefore, the final answer is 3066/3990, which simplifies to... Wait, does 3066 and 3990 have any common factors? Let me check. Since 3066 ÷ 73 = 42, and 3990 ÷ 95 = 42. Since 73 and 95 are coprime, 3066 and 3990 have GCD of 42 × GCD(73,95) = 42 ×1=42? Wait, no. Wait, 3066=73×42, 3990=95×42. So, GCD(3066,3990)=42×GCD(73,95)=42×1=42. So, if we divide numerator and denominator by 42, we get back 73/95. Therefore, the fraction 3066/3990 reduces to 73/95, but the question is asking for the fraction equal to 73/95 where the sum of numerator and denominator is the smallest square. Therefore, the answer is 3066/3990, which can be simplified, but since it's equal to 73/95, perhaps both are acceptable. But the problem says "the fraction that is equal to...", so maybe we need to present the reduced form? Wait, no, because 73/95 is already reduced, but when you multiply both by k=42, you get 3066/3990, which is the fraction they're asking for. So, 3066/3990 is the answer. But let me check with the question again.The problem says: "Determine the fraction that is equal to the fraction 73/95, and the sum of the numerator and denominator is the smallest possible square of a natural number."So, the fraction must be equal to 73/95, so technically, 73/95 is equal to itself, but the sum of numerator and denominator is 73 + 95 = 168, which is not a perfect square. So, they need another fraction equal to 73/95 but with the sum being a square. Therefore, the answer is 3066/3990. Therefore, I think that is the answer. So, boxed, it would be boxed{dfrac{3066}{3990}}.But let me check if there's a simplified version. Wait, since 3066 and 3990 can be divided by 42, as GCD is 42. So, 3066 ÷ 42 = 73, and 3990 ÷ 42 = 95. So, 3066/3990 simplifies to 73/95. But since the problem is asking for the specific fraction where the sum is a square, even though it simplifies, the non-simplified form is the one they want. For example, if you write 73/95, the sum is 168, which is not a square, but when you have 3066/3990, the sum is 7056, which is a square. So, the answer must be 3066/3990.Alternatively, maybe they want the reduced fraction but that doesn't make sense because 73/95 is already reduced. So, I think the answer is 3066/3990. Alternatively, maybe present it as boxed{dfrac{3066}{3990}}.But let me double-check the calculations. 73×42: 70×42=2940, 3×42=126, 2940+126=3066. 95×42: 90×42=3780, 5×42=210, 3780+210=3990. Sum is 3066+3990=7056. Square root of 7056: 84×84=7056. Yes. So, that's correct.Therefore, the answer is 3066/3990.Final AnswerThe fraction is boxed{dfrac{3066}{3990}}.</think>To determine the fraction equal to (frac{73}{95}) such that the sum of the numerator and denominator is the smallest possible square of a natural number, we start by noting that equivalent fractions can be formed by multiplying both the numerator and denominator by the same natural number (k). The sum of the numerator and denominator of such a fraction is (73k + 95k = 168k), which needs to be a perfect square.First, we factorize 168 into its prime factors:[168 = 2^3 times 3 times 7]To make (168k) a perfect square, the exponents in the prime factorization must be even. Therefore, we need to multiply by the missing factors to make each exponent even. This requires multiplying by (2 times 3 times 7 = 42). Thus, (k = 42).Calculating the equivalent fraction:[frac{73 times 42}{95 times 42} = frac{3066}{3990}]The sum of the numerator and denominator is:[3066 + 3990 = 7056]which is (84^2), a perfect square.Thus, the fraction that is equal to (frac{73}{95}) and has the sum of the numerator and denominator as the smallest possible square of a natural number is (boxed{dfrac{3066}{3990}}).,<think>Okay, so I need to find a fraction that's equal to 73/95, and when I add the numerator and denominator of this new fraction, it should be the smallest possible square number. Hmm, let's see. First, since the fraction has to be equal to 73/95, that means they are equivalent fractions. To get equivalent fractions, you multiply or divide both the numerator and denominator by the same number. But since 73 and 95 might already be in their simplest form, maybe I need to check if they can be simplified first. Let me see if 73 and 95 have any common factors. 73 is a prime number, right? Because 73 divided by 2 is not whole, 3? 3*24=72, so 73 is prime. 95 factors into 5*19. So since 73 is prime and 95 is 5*19, and 73 isn't a multiple of 5 or 19, the fraction 73/95 can't be simplified further. So that means any equivalent fraction must be a multiple of 73 and 95 by the same integer. So, the equivalent fractions would be (73*k)/(95*k) where k is a natural number. So, the problem is asking for such a k where when we add the numerator and denominator, which would be 73k + 95k = 168k, this sum is the smallest possible square number. So, 168k must be a perfect square, and we need the smallest such k. Therefore, the problem reduces to finding the minimal k such that 168k is a perfect square. To do that, we can factorize 168 into prime factors. Let's do that. 168 divided by 2 is 84, divided by 2 again is 42, divided by 2 is 21, then 21 is 3*7. So the prime factors are 2^3 * 3^1 * 7^1. So, 168 = 2³ * 3¹ * 7¹. For a number to be a perfect square, all the exponents in its prime factorization must be even. Therefore, we need to multiply 168 by some k so that all exponents become even. Looking at the exponents: for prime 2, we have exponent 3, which is odd, so we need one more 2 to make it 4. For prime 3, we have exponent 1, so we need one more 3 to make it 2. For prime 7, exponent 1, so we need one more 7 to make it 2. Therefore, k must be 2*3*7 = 42. Let me check that. If k is 42, then 168*42. Let's compute 168*42. 168*40=6720, 168*2=336, so total is 6720+336=7056. Is 7056 a perfect square? Let me check. 84 squared is 7056 because 80²=6400 and 4²=16, and (80+4)²=80² + 2*80*4 +4²=6400+640+16=7056. Yes, so 84²=7056, so 168*42=84², which is a perfect square. So, k=42. Therefore, the numerator is 73*42, and the denominator is 95*42. Let's compute those. 73*42: 70*42=2940, 3*42=126, so 2940+126=3066. 95*42: 90*42=3780, 5*42=210, so 3780+210=3990. Therefore, the fraction is 3066/3990. Let me check if that's equivalent to 73/95. Divide numerator and denominator by 42. 3066 ÷42=73, and 3990 ÷42=95. Yep, that's correct. So, the sum of the numerator and denominator is 3066 + 3990 = 7056, which is 84 squared, and 84 is a natural number. And since we were looking for the smallest possible square, we can check if there is a smaller k. Wait, is k=42 the smallest possible? Let me think. Suppose we tried a smaller k. Let's see. For example, if k=1, 168*1=168, which is not a square. k=2: 336. Not a square. k=3: 504. Not a square. k=4: 672. Not a square. k=5: 840. Not a square. k=6: 1008. Not a square. k=7: 1176. Not a square. k=8: 1344. Not a square. k=9: 1512. Not a square. k=10: 1680. Not a square. Hmm, maybe k=21? Let's check 168*21=3528. Is that a square? 59 squared is 3481, 60 squared is 3600. So no. Similarly, k=14: 168*14=2352. 48 squared is 2304, 49 squared is 2401, so no. k=6: 1008. 31 squared=961, 32 squared=1024. Not. So seems like the first k that works is 42. Therefore, the answer is 3066/3990, but we need to present it as a fraction. However, the problem says "the fraction that is equal to the fraction 73/95, and the sum of the numerator and denominator is the smallest possible square of a natural number." So, the fraction is 3066/3990, which simplifies back to 73/95, but here they want the equivalent fraction where the sum is a square. So the answer is 3066/3990, but we can check if that's reducible. Since 3066 and 3990, both divided by 42, gives 73 and 95, which are co-prime, so 3066/3990 is the fraction. But maybe they want it in the box as simplified, but the problem states "the fraction that is equal to 73/95", so 3066/3990 is equal, but maybe we can write it in the box as boxed{frac{3066}{3990}}.But let me check once again. The question says "Determine the fraction that is equal to the fraction 73/95, and the sum of the numerator and denominator is the smallest possible square of a natural number." So, the fraction is 3066/3990, sum is 7056=84². So that's correct. However, maybe the problem expects the fraction in simplest terms? But wait, 3066/3990 simplifies to 73/95, but the question says "the fraction that is equal to...", so they might accept either, but since they specifically want the one where the sum is a square, so 3066/3990. But perhaps we need to present it in the form where the sum is the minimal square, so 3066/3990. Alternatively, since 73/95 is equal, but their sum is 73+95=168, which is not a square. So, the answer must be the unsimplified version. Alternatively, maybe present the fraction as 73*42/95*42, but written out. So, yes, 3066/3990. So I think that's the answer.Final AnswerThe fraction is boxed{dfrac{3066}{3990}}.</think>To determine the fraction equal to (frac{73}{95}) where the sum of the numerator and denominator is the smallest possible square of a natural number, we start by noting that equivalent fractions can be written as (frac{73k}{95k}) for some natural number (k). The sum of the numerator and denominator of this equivalent fraction is (73k + 95k = 168k), which needs to be a perfect square.First, we factorize 168 into its prime factors:[168 = 2^3 times 3^1 times 7^1]For (168k) to be a perfect square, all the exponents in its prime factorization must be even. Therefore, we need to multiply 168 by (2 times 3 times 7 = 42) to make each exponent even:[168 times 42 = 2^4 times 3^2 times 7^2 = (2^2 times 3 times 7)^2 = (4 times 3 times 7)^2 = 84^2]Thus, (k = 42) is the smallest natural number such that (168k) is a perfect square. The equivalent fraction is:[frac{73 times 42}{95 times 42} = frac{3066}{3990}]The sum of the numerator and denominator is (3066 + 3990 = 7056), which is (84^2), the smallest possible square of a natural number.Therefore, the fraction is (boxed{dfrac{3066}{3990}}).]

🔑:2. Let frac{73 k}{95 k}, k in mathbb{N} be the desired fraction.Then it holds that 73 k + 95 k = n^{2}, n in mathbb{N}, or 168 k = n^{2}.Further, 2 cdot 2 cdot 2 cdot 3 cdot 7 cdot k = n^{2}, so k = 2 cdot 3 cdot 7 or k = 42.The desired fraction is frac{73 k}{95 k} = frac{73 cdot 42}{95 cdot 42} = frac{3066}{3990}.
