Pages 1-9 = 9 pages with 1 digit for each number
1 * 9 = 9
Pages 10 - 99 = 90 pages , with 2 digits for each number
2 * 90 = 180
Pages 100 - 185 = 86 pages with 3 digits for each number
3 * 86 = 258
9 + 180 + 258
=447How many digits are required for numbering the pages of a book containing 185 pages?
pages 100 through 185, or 86 pages, need 3 digits so
86 * 3 = 258
Then pages 10 through 99 need 2 digits so
258 + (90 * 2) = 438
then pages 1 through 9 need 1, so
438 + (1 * 9) = 447How many digits are required for numbering the pages of a book containing 185 pages?
Pls mark me best answer....
1-digit = 1 * 9 pages = 9 digits
2-digit = 2 * 90 pages = 180 digits
3-digit (100-185) = 3 * 86 pages = 258 digits
TOTAL = 447 digits
