We need 1 0 m ≡ 1 0 n ( m o d 1 0 0 1 ) , and hence 1 0 n − m ≡ 1 modulo 7 , 1 1 and 1 3 . Since 1 0 6 is the smallest power of 1 0 that is congruent to 1 modulo each of 7 , 1 1 , 1 3 , the answer is simply the number of pairs of non-negative integers 0 ≤ m < n ≤ 9 9 such that m ≡ n ( m o d 6 ) .
For j = 0 , 1 , 2 , 3 there are 1 7 integers between 0 and 9 9 that are congruent to j modulo 6 , and hence there are ( 2 1 7 ) pairs of integers 0 ≤ m < n ≤ 9 9 such that m ≡ n ≡ j ( m o d 6 ) .
For j = 4 , 5 there are 1 6 integers between 0 and 9 9 that are congruent to j modulo 6 , and hence there are ( 2 1 6 ) pairs of integers 0 ≤ m < n ≤ 9 9 such that m ≡ n ≡ j ( m o d 6 ) .
Hence there are 4 ( 2 1 7 ) + 2 ( 2 1 6 ) = 7 8 4 pairs of non-negative integers 0 ≤ m < n ≤ 9 9 such that 1 0 m ≡ 1 0 n ( m o d 1 0 0 1 ) .
