I've clearly failed. I don't understand what is meant by "the pages in the book equate to 555 digits". I thought it might mean that the sum of each of the page numbers is 555.

So I must be misinterpreting the question. pages 1 - 9 = 9 digits total page 10 is 2 more digits so 10 - 99 = 180 digits so thats 189 digits total so far all pages from there on in are 3 digits.. |

Re: I Q TEST
I am so glad people are finding this a little taxing, it was homework for our 10 year old and we had floods of tears because she couldn't do it.
I work in a Technology College so I took the question to work and the Maths teachers here were initially stumped, trying to find some formula to answer it with. |
Re: I Q TEST
I was thinking Fibonacci sequence but it can't be, must be a trick question.
