10^4 <x<10^n ,(x,20)=1  20=2^2 ×5  φ(20)=20×(1−(1/2))×(1−(1/5))=8  (((10^n −10^4 ))/(20))×φ(20)=9999000  (((10^n −10^4 ))/(20))×8=9999000  (10^n −10^4 )=((9999000×20)/8)  10^n −10^4 =24997500  10^n =25000000+10^4   10^n =25010000  n=log_(10) (2.501×10^7 )  n=log_(10) (2.501)+log_(10) (10^7 )  n=log_(10) (2.501)+7  n≈0.398+7  n≈7.398  since n must be an integer,                     determinant (((n=8)))

but between 10^4  and 10^8  there are  39 996 000 coprimes with 20, not  9 999 000.

butbetween104and108thereare39996000coprimeswith20,not9999000.

20=2^2 ×5  a coprime with 20 should not contain  the prime factor 2 and 5. that means  all numbers between 10^4  and 10^n ,  which are a multiple of 2 or of 5 or  of both must be eliminated.  (10^n −10^4 )(1−(1/2)−(1/5)+(1/(10)))=9999000  10^n =25 007 500  this is not possible, since n is natural  number.  that means it is not possible that  there are exactly 9999000 coprimes  with 20 between 10^4  and 10^n !
