AMC10 2016 A · Q6. It mainly tests Digit properties (sum of digits, divisibility tests), Base representation.

Ximena lists the whole numbers 1 through 30 once. Emilio copies Ximena’s numbers, replacing each occurrence of the digit 2 by the digit 1. Ximena adds her numbers and Emilio adds his numbers. How much larger is Ximena’s sum than Emilio’s?
Ximena 把从 1 到 30 的所有整数各写一次。Emilio 抄写 Ximena 的这些数,并把每一次出现的数字 2 都替换成数字 1。Ximena 计算她这些数的总和,Emilio 计算他这些数的总和。Ximena 的总和比 Emilio 的总和大多少?
(A) 13 13
(B) 26 26
(C) 102 102
(D) 103 103
(E) 110 110
Answer
Correct choice: (D)
正确答案:(D)
Solution
Answer (D): Each time Emilio replaces a 2 in the ones position by 1, Ximena’s sum is decreased by 1. When Emilio replaces a 2 in the tens position by 1, Ximena’s sum is decreased by 10. Ximena wrote 3 twos in the ones position (2, 12, 22) and 10 twos in the tens position (20, 21, 22, $\ldots$, 29). Thus Ximena’s sum is greater than Emilio’s sum by $3 \cdot 1 + 10 \cdot 10 = 103$.
答案(D):每当埃米利奥把个位上的一个 2 替换成 1,希梅娜的总和就减少 1。每当埃米利奥把十位上的一个 2 替换成 1,希梅娜的总和就减少 10。希梅娜在个位上写了 3 个 2(2,12,22),在十位上写了 10 个 2(20,21,22,$\ldots$,29)。因此,希梅娜的总和比埃米利奥的总和大 $3 \cdot 1 + 10 \cdot 10 = 103$。
