97. The number $A$ is written in the decimal system using 666 threes, and the number $B$ is written using 666 sixes. From which digits does the product $A \cdot B$ consist?
97. The desired number will be equal to the product $A_{1} \cdot B_{1}$, where $A_{1}$ consists of 666 digits 9, and $B_{1}$ consists of 666 digits 2. But $A_{1}$ is one less than the number $10^{6666}$, which is expressed by a one followed by 666 zeros. Therefore, multiplying the number $B_{1}$ by this number is the s...

100. From the equality $m^{2}=n^{2}+1954$ it follows that the numbers $m^{2}$ and $n^{2}$ are of the same parity (i.e., both even or both odd); therefore, the same can be said about the numbers $m$ and $n$. But in this case, the number $1954=m^{2}-n^{2}=(m+n)(m-n)$ must necessarily be divisible by 4 (since the numbers ...
