When I acquired my Mercedes- Benz car in Germany the
first thing I had to do was to get a license plate. The plate I got had
peculiar number on it. It consisted of 5 different numbers and by mistake when
fixed it upside down the number could be still read, but the value had
increased by 78633.
What was my actual license number?
Answer: There are
only 5 numbers that can be read upside down
0.1.6.8 and 9. Now we only have to arrange these numbers so that when
turned upside down the result will be larger by 78633. With some experiment we
will find that the number is 10968 which are 89601, inverted.
