1223334444........
First term=1+2+3+4=10
Second term=2+4+6+8=20
It increase in double 10,20,30,40,60..
In 23rd term sum of total is=2760
2888-2760==128
24th term 1 will cme 24 times,2 will cme 48 times,3 will cme 72 times..
24+48+72=144
So 144 is>128

1 to 4 as a set it repeats in order 10,20,30,...... so 23 full sets sums up to 2760 so now in 24th set 1's and 2's sums to 72 and next 72 will be 3's so i guess 3 will be 2888th number

Is this solution Helpfull? Yes (3) | No

Here it form GP with C.R=2

therefore : 1(2^n-1)/(2-1) + 2(2^n-1)/(2-1) + 3(2^n-1)/(2-1) +4(2^n-1)/(2-1) = (2^n-1)10

for n=8
(2^8-1)*10=2560
2888-2560=328.

now the series starts with 9 1's,10 2's,11 3'3 and so on...

hence 2888th term will be 2.

Answer is 2

U.Hari Prasath  (10 years ago)

first term has 1 1's 2 2's 3 3's and 4 4's total nos wil be 10
second terms has 2 1's 4 2's 6 3's and 8 4's total nos wil be 20
it goes in such a way like 10+20+40+80+160+320+640+1280=2550 2888-2550=338
remaining there will be 338 digits nineth term has 2^9 1s so ans will be 2

Is this solution Helpfull? Yes | No (1)
