Modern Puzzles by Henry Ernest Dudeney: $77$
- The Ten Volumes
- As an extension of the last puzzle, let us introduce a $10$th volume marked $0$.
- If we arrange the $10$ volumes as follows, we get a sum of money correctly multiplied by $2$.
54 3 9 2 108 7 6
- Can you do the same thing with the multiplier $4$ so that the $9$ digits and $0$ are all represented,
- once and once only?
