Count N digit numbers divisible by both given numbers X and Y

Last Updated : 12 Jan, 2024

Given X, Y, and N. Find the number of N digit integers divisible by both X and Y.

Examples:

Input: N = 2, X = 5, Y = 7
Output: 2
Explanation: There are only 2 two-digit numbers divisible by both 5 and 7. They are 35 and 70.

Input: N = 1, X = 2, Y = 3
Output: 1
Explanation: 6 is the only 1-digit number divisible by both 2 and 3.

Approach: This can be solved with the following idea:

LCM of two numbers denotes the lowest number that is divisible by both numbers.

Below are the steps involved:

Find the LCM of X and Y.
Initialize a variable ans.
Divide 10^N by LCM and store it in ans which denotes total numbers divisible by LCM up to 10^N.
subtract 10^(N-1) / LCM from ans.
Output ans.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++

// C++ Implementation
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

// Function to calculate GCD of two numbers
int gcd(int x, int y)
{
    while (y) {
        int temp = x % y;
        x = y;
        y = temp;
    }
    return x;
}

// Function to calculate LCM of two numbers
int lcm(int x, int y) { return (x * y) / gcd(x, y); }

// Function to calculate x^y modulo p
long long power(long long x, int y)
{
    long long res = 1; // Initialize result

    if (x == 0)
        return 0; // In case x is divisible by p;

    while (y > 0) {
        // If y is odd, multiply x with result
        if (y & 1)
            res = (res * x);

        // y must be even now
        y = y >> 1; // y = y/2
        x = (x * x);
    }
    return res;
}

// Function to count number of N digits
long long divCount(int N, int X, int Y)
{

    // Finding the number of digits divisible by 10 ^ N
    long long ans = (power(10ll, N) - 1) / (lcm(X, Y));

    // Find the floor
    ans -= (power(10ll, N - 1) - 1) / (lcm(X, Y));

    return ans;
}

// Driver code
int main()
{

    int N = 5;
    int X = 2;
    int Y = 4;

    // Function call
    cout << divCount(N, X, Y);
    return 0;
}
