A car's odometer shows 72927 miles, a palindromic number. What are the minimum miles you would need to travel to form another?
A palindrome is a word (or in this case a number) which can be read forwards and backwards as the same word, such as kayak or 1221.
The next one would be 73037, I would think. So, 110 miles?
ReplyDeleteI got 110 too, is this correct?
ReplyDeleteI believe so. 73,037 should be the next palindrome mile, so the car has to go 110 miles to get there.
