There is my math's exam on monday. I was preparing for that. I was busy in the problems of maths but I do not know the method to solve this problem -WHAT IS THE SUMMATION OF THE TOTAL NUMBERS FORMED BY 1,2,3,4.


The answer is 66660.

Let the numbers be part of a set " S " "S" .

Now, we see that, for every number a 1 a 2 a 3 a 4 \overline{a_1a_2a_3a_4} of S S , the exists another member of S S , b 1 b 2 b 3 b 4 \overline{b_1b_2b_3b_4} such that a 1 a 2 a 3 a 4 + b 1 b 2 b 3 b 4 = 5555 \overline{a_1a_2a_3a_4} + \overline{b_1b_2b_3b_4} = 5555 . For example, 1324 1324 can be paired with 4231 4231 , 2314 2314 can be paired with 3241 3241 .

Now, we see that there are 4 ! = 24 4! = 24 numbers in S S . Since every pair contains 2 numbers, there are a total of 12 pairs.

Since the sum of each pair is 5555, the sum of all the numbers must be 12 × 5555 = 66660 12 \times 5555 = \boxed{66660} .
