- #Take the number 192 and multiply it by each of 1, 2, and 3:
- # 192 x 1 = 192
- # 192 x 2 = 384
- # 192 x 3 = 576
- #By concatenating each product we get the 1 to 9 pandigital, 192384576.
- #We will call 192384576 the concatenated product of 192 and (1,2,3)
- #The same can be achieved by starting with 9 and multiplying by 1, 2, 3, 4,
- #and 5, giving the pandigital, 918273645, which is the concatenated product
- #of 9 and (1,2,3,4,5).
- #What is the largest 1 to 9 pandigital 9-digit number that can be formed as
- #the concatenated product of an integer with (1,2, ... , n) where n > 1?
