Your teacher must be too easy.
To find the number you are describing, we can start by looking at the information provided:
1. The number is less than one million.
2. The number in the leftmost place is a 9.
3. The numbers in each place to the right are 2 less than the previous number.
4. The number has no ones.
Let's break down the information step by step:
First, we know that the number in the leftmost place is a 9. This means that the number starts with 9.
Next, we need to determine the rest of the digits. We are told that each digit to the right is 2 less than the previous number. Since we have no ones, we will subtract 2 from 9 to get the next digit. So the second digit will be 9 - 2 = 7.
Continuing this pattern, we keep subtracting 2 to find the rest of the digits. The third digit will be 7 - 2 = 5, the fourth digit will be 5 - 2 = 3, and the fifth digit will be 3 - 2 = 1.
Now, we have the five-digit number that satisfies the given conditions: 97531.
To ensure that this number is less than one million, we can verify that it is indeed less than 1,000,000.
Therefore, the number you are describing is 97531.
