Thank You So Much

-What is the mystery # ________

Nicole -- please don't keep reposting the same question. As soon as a volunteer tutor is available, they'll help you.

To find the mystery number based on the given clues, we can start by breaking down each clue and systematically narrowing down the possibilities step by step.

1. The mystery number is a decimal: This means that it has a whole part and a decimal part.

2. The digit in the 1's place is less than the digit in the 10th place: This tells us that the tenths place value is greater than the ones place value.

3. No two digits are the same: This means that all the digits in the number are different.

4. The number is less than the number of years in a century: There are 100 years in a century, so the mystery number is less than 100.

5. The digit in the 10th place is less than the digit in the 1000's: This means the digit in the tens place is smaller than the digit in the thousands place.

6. There are 2 digits in the whole part: This indicates that the number has two digits to the left of the decimal point.

7. There are 5 digits altogether: Since there are already two digits in the whole part, this means there must be three digits in the decimal part.

8. The sum of the digits is 20: The sum of all the digits in the number (both whole and decimal parts) should add up to 20.

9. No digit is odd: This means that all the digits must be even.

10. The product of the digits in the ones place and the hundreds place is zero: This implies that at least one of the digits in the ones place or the hundreds place is zero.

11. The sum of the digits in the ones place and the hundreds place is two: This tells us that the sum of the digits in these two places is 2.

12. The number is greater than 5 dozen: 5 dozen is equal to 60, so the mystery number is greater than 60.

13. The sum of the digits in the decimal part of the number is the same as the digits in the whole part: This means that the sum of the digits in the decimal part is equal to the sum of the digits in the whole part.

14. The product of the digits in the tenths place and the thousands place is equal to 2 dozen: 2 dozen is equal to 24, so the product of the digits in the tenths place and the thousands place is 24.

15. The product of the digits in the hundreds place and the tens place is zero: This tells us that at least one of the digits in the hundreds place or the tens place is zero.

Using these clues, we can start by narrowing down the possible digits for each place value based on the given conditions. Then, we can generate all the possible numbers that satisfy these conditions and check against the other clues until we find the correct mystery number.

Please wait for a moment while I calculate the solution for you.
