Prove it using the mathematical induction.

First here are a couple of things to note:

[1] A number whose digits add up to a multiple of three is
divisable by 3.

e.g. 369: 3+6+9=18: 1+8=9 which is a multiple of 3 hence 369
is divisable by 3.

[2] Whenever a number (X) is multiplied with another number
(Y) then the product (X*Y) will have all the factors of X as
well as all the factors of Y in its set of factors.

e.g. if X has factors of (1,P,Q,X) and Y has factors of
(1,Q,R,Y) then X*Y has factors of (1,P,Q,Q,R,X,Y).

Let

N = any series of digits (e.g. N=369)

D = the number of digits in N (e.g. if N=369 then D=3)

P = is a number constructed in the following way : a 1,
followed by (D-1) 0s, followed by another 1, followed by
(D-1) 0s, followed by another 1. (e.g. if N=369 then D=3 and
P would be 1001001) Note that P will always be divisible by 3.

Also, if we multiply N with P we are essentially repeating N
for (D-1) times.

e.g. if N=369 then D=3, P=1001001 and N*P=369369369

Let's start with N=111. It is clear that N is divisible by
3. (From [1])

Also, D=3 and P=1001001

N*P=111111111 (9 times)

The resulting number 111111111 must be divisible by 9 as N
and P both are divisible by 3.

Now, let's start with N=111111111. It is clear that N is
divisible by 9.

Also, D=9 and P=1000000001000000001

N*P=111111111... (27 times)

The resulting number 1111111... (27 times) must be divisible
by 27 as N is divisible by 9 and P is divisible by 3.

Repeat the same procedure for N=1111111... (27 times) The
resulting number 1111111... (81 times) must be divisible by
81 as N is divisible by 27 and P is divisible by 3.

Similarly, for N=1111111... (81 times) The resulting number
1111111... (243 times) must be divisible by 243 as N is
divisible by 81 and P is divisible by 3.

Thus, 1111111... (243 times) is divisible by 243.

Answer / madman042262

1111....n times(n=243) divided by 243
>>
2+4+3=9
2+4+3=9
.............. 1n/243 where addition of 243 is 9
.............. 1(9)/9=1?
___________________________________________is this correct?

Answer / karthik

factors of 243 is 3^5(3*3*3*3*3) (i.e) 3 is the divident of 243.
.
. . the number (111111.....(243 ones)) is also
divisable by 243.

why i am saying is the total addition of a given
number is divisible by 3.so, definately i say that the given
number is divisal by 243(it is also divisable by 3).

why should we hire the others waiting to be interviewed?

A woman took a certain number of eggs to the market and sold some of them. The next day, through the industry of her hens, the number left over had been doubled, and she sold the same number as the previous day. On the third day the new remainder was tripled, and she sold the same number as before. On the fourth day the remainder was quadrupled, and her sales the same as before. On the fifth day what had been left over were quintupled, yet she sold exactly the same as on all the previous occasions and so disposed of her entire stock. What is the smallest number of eggs she could have taken to market the first day, and how many did she sell daily? Note that the answer is not zero.

When Alexander the Great attacked the forces of Porus, an Indian soldier was captured by the Greeks. He had displayed such bravery in battle, however, that the enemy offered to let him choose how he wanted to be killed. They told him, "If you tell a lie, you will put to the sword, and if you tell the truth you will be hanged." The soldier could make only one statement. He made that statement and went free. What did he say?
