The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of finding the values of A and B in the equation \( AB \times 6 = BBB \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the equation The equation \( AB \times 6 = BBB \) means that when we multiply the two-digit number \( AB \) (where A is the tens place and B is the units place) by 6, we should get a three-digit number where all digits are the same (i.e., \( BBB \)). ### Step 2: Identify the possible values of B Since \( BBB \) is a three-digit number with all the same digits, the possible values for B (the unit digit) can be 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8. This is because these are the digits that, when multiplied by 6, will still end with the same digit. ### Step 3: Check each possible value of B 1. **If B = 0**: - \( AB = A0 \) - \( A0 \times 6 = 000 \) (not valid since it doesn't give a three-digit number). 2. **If B = 1**: - \( A1 \times 6 = 111 \) (not valid since \( 1 \times 6 = 6 \)). 3. **If B = 2**: - \( A2 \times 6 = 222 \) - Dividing \( 222 \) by \( 6 \): \[ 222 \div 6 = 37 \] - This gives \( A = 3 \) (not valid since 3 is not a single digit). 4. **If B = 3**: - \( A3 \times 6 = 333 \) (not valid since \( 3 \times 6 = 18 \)). 5. **If B = 4**: - \( A4 \times 6 = 444 \) - Dividing \( 444 \) by \( 6 \): \[ 444 \div 6 = 74 \] - This gives \( A = 7 \). 6. **If B = 5**: - \( A5 \times 6 = 555 \) (not valid since \( 5 \times 6 = 30 \)). 7. **If B = 6**: - \( A6 \times 6 = 666 \) (not valid since \( 6 \times 6 = 36 \)). 8. **If B = 7**: - \( A7 \times 6 = 777 \) (not valid since \( 7 \times 6 = 42 \)). 9. **If B = 8**: - \( A8 \times 6 = 888 \) - Dividing \( 888 \) by \( 6 \): \[ 888 \div 6 = 148 \] - This gives \( A = 14 \) (not valid since 14 is not a single digit). ### Step 4: Conclusion From the above checks, the only valid values we found are: - \( A = 7 \) - \( B = 4 \) Thus, the values of A and B are: \[ \text{A} = 7, \text{B} = 4 \]
