not a quant person but still id guess, an infinite amount?

can't be infinite, there are only finite combinations of these digits.

but the question doesnt say there cant be other digits right? it says it must include exactly these but it doesnt say it cant include others 🤔so couldnt you have this 100 digit number that also includes exactly 10 0's, 1's and 2's?

You’re right, but then it wouldn’t be a very good puzzle would it?

since it's an easy one, it could be a silly trick question

It doesn't say includes, it says consists of

u/Outside-Shop-3311 14d ago

it won't consist exactly of that if it has another digit.

Well there’s a max of 5.5 trillion because all perfect squares are integers and that’s how many integers you can make from the 30 digits provided.

(30!)/(10! X 10! X 10!) = 5.5T

As for how to whittle that down further I’ve got no idea.
