| Question 1 |
|---|
| Find the sum of all the multiples of 3 or 5 below 1000. |
$x = 1000; echo 1.5*(int)(($x-1)/3)*(int)(($x+2)/3) + 2.5*(int)(($x-1)/5)*(int)(($x+4)/5) - 7.5*(int)(($x-1)/15)*(int)(($x+14)/15); |
| Language used: java |
| Question 2 |
|---|
| Find the sum of all the even-valued terms in the sequence which do not exceed four million. |
int total = 0;
int x = 1, y = 1;
do {
if (x % 2 == 0)
total += x;
int z = x;
x += y;
y = z;
} while (x > 1000000); |
| Language used: c++ |
| Question 4 |
|---|
| Find the largest palindrome made from the product of two 3-digit numbers. |
int max = 0; for(int i = 100; i <= 999; i++) for(int j = 100; j <= 999; j++) if (palin(j * i)) if(j * i > max) max = j * i; System.out.println(max); |

| Question 5 |
|---|
| What is the smallest number that is evenly divisible by all of the numbers from 1 to 20? |
This does not require programming at all. Compute the prime factorization of each number from 1 to 20, and multiply the greatest power of each prime together: 20 = 2^2 * 5 19 = 19 18 = 2 * 3^2 17 = 17 16 = 2^4 15 = 3 * 5 14 = 2 * 7 13 = 13 11 = 11 All others are included in the previous numbers. ANSWER: 2^4 * 3^2 * 5 * 7 * 11 * 13 * 17 * 19 = 232792560 |
| Language used: cpp |
| Question 6 |
|---|
| Find the difference between the sum of the squares of the first one hundred natural numbers and the square of the sum. |
require 'mathn'
n = 100
puts "Difference is #{ (n * (n**2 - 1) * (n / 4 + 1 / 6)).abs }." |

| Question 8 |
|---|
Find the greatest product of five consecutive digits in the 1000-digit number:73167176531330624919225119674426574742355349194934
