Question Number 116091 by I want to learn more last updated on 30/Sep/20

Is there a formular to tell how many times a digit occur in an interval.    e.g.  How many times digits  2  occur between  1 − 100

In each tens the digits 2 appears one  time,only tens from 20 to 30 digits 2  appears two times.Therefore,from 1  to 100 digts 2 appears 11 times  The other digits are the  same

2 ⇒one time 2  12,22,32,...,92 ⇒10 times 2  20,21,23,...,29 ⇒9 times 2  ⇒totally 1+10+9=20 times 2

n digit numbers:  10^(n−1) +(n−1)×9×10^(n−2)   =(9n+1)10^(n−2)     from 1 to 100:  1+19×1=20 times

ndigitnumbers:10n1+(n1)×9×10n2=(9n+1)10n2from1to100:1+19×1=20times

I just see this now sir,  so it will work for  1 to 50  too  or  another  nth derivative

And sorry for bordering you sir,  How to generalise it as you solve, so that i can think too on my own.  Thanks sir.

let′s look at numbers with m digits  xxxx...x  the digit 2 (or any other non−zero  digit) can be at first position  2xxx..x  there are 10×10×..×10=10^(m−1)   such numbers, i.e. digit 2 comes  10^(m−1)  times at this position.  when the digit 2 is at other positions,  x2xx..x  (m−1 possible positions)  there are 9×10×10×...10=9×10^(m−2)   such numbers, i.e. digit 2 comes  (m−1)×9×10^(m−2)  times.    all together:  10^(m−1) +(m−1)×9×10^(m−2)   =10^(m−2) [10+(m−1)×9]  =(9m+1)×10^(m−2)
