Problem

Recall that a palindrome is a number that reads the same forward and backward. Find the greatest integer less than 10001000 that is a palindrome both when written in base ten and when written in base eight, such as 292=444eight.292 = 444_{\text{eight}}.

解析

Solution

Assuming that such palindrome is greater than 7778=511,777_8 = 511, we conclude that the palindrome has four digits when written in base 8.8. Let such palindrome be

(ABBA)8=512A+64B+8B+A=513A+72B.(\underline{ABBA})_8 = 512A + 64B + 8B + A = 513A + 72B. It is clear that A=1,A=1, so we repeatedly add 7272 to 513513 until we get palindromes less than 1000:1000:

513+720=513,513+721=585,513+722=657,513+723=729,513+724=801,513+725=873,513+726=945,513+727=1017.\begin{aligned} 513+72\cdot0 &= 513, \\ 513+72\cdot1 &= \boxed{585}, \\ 513+72\cdot2 &= 657, \\ 513+72\cdot3 &= 729, \\ 513+72\cdot4 &= 801, \\ 513+72\cdot5 &= 873, \\ 513+72\cdot6 &= 945, \\ 513+72\cdot7 &= 1017. \\ \end{aligned} ~MRENTHUSIASM
