Yesterday's SOTD * Tomorrow's SOTD

The line below marks the end of the <noinclude> ... </noinclude> section.



A121023: Multiples of 3 containing a 3 in their decimal representation.

{ 3, 30, 33, 36, 39, 63, 93, 123, 132, 135, 138, 153, 183, 213, 231, ... }

The graph of this sequence is (roughly) self-similar: it has the same appearance when the scale is multiplied by 10.

The same can be generalized to multiples of any other number
d
which have
d
as a substring in their decimal (or other?) expansion. Sequences A011531 (numbers having the digit 1) and A121022 through A121040 cover this for
d
= 1, ..., 20.

Another generalization is that of numbers containing some or all of their divisors as substrings in their decimal expansion, or simply the digits thereof. Relevant sequences include

  • A092911: All divisors can be formed using the digits of the number.
  • A239058: All divisors are a substring of the decimal expansion, which is the union of primes having a digit 1 (A208270).

and the more challenging

  • A239060: Non-prime numbers having all divisors are a substring of the decimal expansion. (Of which the 4th term is not yet known!)
