(C) 819 819
(D) 826 826
(E) 833 833
Answer
Correct choice: (D)
正确答案:(D)
Solution
Since $10^{93}=1\underbrace{00\cdots00}_{93\text{ zeros}}$, we have \[10^{93}-93=\underbrace{99\cdots9}_{91\text{ nines}}07.\] Thus the sum of the digits is $(91\times9)+7=826$.
因为 $10^{93}=1\underbrace{00\cdots00}_{93\text{ 个零}}$,所以 \[10^{93}-93=\underbrace{99\cdots9}_{91\text{ 个 9}}07.\] 因此各位数字之和为 $(91\times9)+7=826$。
