. We're sorry about the hassle.
We are adding all the integers 1 , 2 , 3 , … 1 0 at least once in some order, and adding all the n 's of a 1 , a 2 , a 3 , … a 1 0 in order, for a total of 1 + 2 + 3 + ⋯ + 1 0 + 1 + 2 + 3 + ⋯ + 1 0 = 9 0 , so the sum of all the unit digits of a n + n must end in 0 .
However, since all 1 0 unit digits of a n + n must be different, all 1 0 unit digits 0 , 1 , 2 , … 9 are represented, but 0 + 1 + 2 + ⋯ + 9 = 4 5 , which ends in 5 , not 0 .
Therefore, 0 possible arrangements are possible.
