The Telephone Problem |
---|
My son's new telephone number, together with the area code, forms a ten-digit number consisting of a pair of 1's separated by one digit, a pair of 2's separated by two digits, a pair of 3's and a pair of 4's both separated by three digits, and a pair of 5's separated by five digits. Neither the sixth nor the ninth digit is a 4. What is his new telephone number? |
