Count all N digit numbers whose digits are multiple of X

Last Updated : 24 Apr, 2023

Given two integers N and X, the task is to find the count of all possible N digit numbers whose every single digit is a multiple of X.

Examples :

Input: N = 1, X = 3
Output: 4
Explanation:
The single-digit numbers whose digits are multiple of 3 are 0, 3, 6 and 9.
So the answer will be 4.
Input: N = 2, X = 4
Output: 6
Explanation:
The two-digit numbers whose digits are multiple of 4 are 40, 44, 48, 80, 84, 88.
So the answer will be 6.

Naive Approach: The simplest approach is to iterate over all N-digit numbers, i.e. in the range [10^{N – 1}, 10^N – 1] and for each number, check if each digit of the number is a multiple of X or not. Increase the count of such numbers and print the final count.

Time Complexity: O((10^N – 10^{N – 1})*N)
Auxiliary Space: O(1)

Efficient Approach: Follow the steps below in order to solve the problem:

Count the total digits which are multiple of X, lets denote it as total_Multiples.
BY arrange all the above digits in different positions to form an N-digit number the required count can be obtained.

Illustration:
For example N = 2, X = 3
Multiples of 3 are S = { 0, 3, 6, 9 }

To find all 2-digit numbers, arrange all the multiples of X to form a 2-digit number and count it.

Arrange the numbers from the set S. Taking 0 for the most significant bit will result in 1-digit number, so there are 3 ways to arrange the most significant position of a number and there are 4 ways to arrange the last digit of a number whose digits are multiples of 3.
So total ways = 3*4 = 12 so the answer will be 12.

From the above illustration, if M is the count of all multiples of X, then the required count of N digit numbers(for N > 1) is equal to (M – 1)*M^{N – 1}.
For one-digit numbers, the answer is M.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++

// C++ program for the above approach
 
#include <stdio.h>
#define ll long long
 
// Function to calculate x^n
// using binary-exponentiation
ll power(ll x, ll n)
{
    // Stores the resultant power
    ll temp;
 
    if (n == 0)
        return 1;
 
    // Stores the value of x^(n/2)
    temp = power(x, n / 2);
    if (n % 2 == 0)
        return temp * temp;
    else
        return x * temp * temp;
}
 
// Function to count all N-digit numbers
// whose digits are multiples of x
ll count_Total_Numbers(ll n, ll x)
{
    ll total, multiples = 0;
 
    // Count all digits which
    // are multiples of x
    for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
 
        // Check if current number
        // is a multiple of X
        if (i % x == 0)
 
            // Increase count of multiples
            multiples++;
    }
 
    // Check if it's a 1 digit number
    if (n == 1)
        return multiples;
 
    // Count the total numbers
    total = (multiples - 1)
            * power(multiples, n - 1);
 
    // Return the total numbers
    return total;
}
 
// Driver Code
int main()
{
    // Given N and X
    ll N = 1, X = 3;
 
    // Function Call
    printf("%lld ",
           count_Total_Numbers(N, X));
 
    return 0;
}

  else
