100=244 (base 6) See that if x is in the yth place in the base 6 representation of n, then the yth place of nth number that is in Eva's list is the xth possible digit (in ascending order of 1,2,4,5,7,8). The 2nd digit that can be used is 2. Therefore, the number in the hundreds place is 2. The 4th digit that can be used is 5. Therefore, the numbers in the tens and ones places are both 5. The 100th number in Eva's list is 255.
