Gayatri Vidya Parishad student Interview Question
StudentsCountry: India
Interview Type: In-Person
the no. exists I got it. i think you didn't get the question. suppose take an example no. as 128. if we multiply 128 with 2 to 6 numbers i.e.., 128*2 or 128*3 or 128*4 or 128*5 128*6 then we have to get either 281 or 182 or 812 or 218 or 821 means permutations of 128.
Yeah, this is not an easy problem to solve outright by logic. So far all I've determined is that this number would have to have a fair amount of digits and begin with 1. Also, if one such number exists, infinitely many do, as you could add any number of zeros at the end.
Answer is
22/7=3.142857142857142857142857142857
1 × 142,857 = 142,857
2 × 142,857 = 285,714
3 × 142,857 = 428,571
4 × 142,857 = 571,428
5 × 142,857 = 714,285
6 × 142,857 = 857,142
I thought the question was asking for multiplication with ALL numbers 2..6.
Yes, such number exists.
142857 (1428570, 14285700, 142857000) is a good example, anyone can share a way to logically find such numbers (like a rule with pen and paper).

Looks like 142xxxx857 is a pattern, where xxxx can be any number of 9 (digit 9).
If I understand the question correctly, then such a number does not exist.
- amustea June 28, 20122*3*4*5*6 = 720, and the number (X*720) will have more digits than the original number (X).
