Answer:
It appears 20 times.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can list the number of times
4, 14,24,34,40,41,42,43,44( counts as twice),45,46,47,48,49,54,64,74,84,94
It appears 20 times.
The digit '4' appears 19 times in the page numbers from 1 to 96 of a book.
we will count the occurrences of '4' in each tens place and then in each units place.
- The tens digit '4' appears in the 40s series: 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, and 49. This gives us a total of 10 occurrences. Note how the number 44 contains two fours, adding an extra count in this step.
- The units digit '4' appears once in every series of ten pages: 04, 14, 24, 34, 54, 64, 74, 84, and 94, adding 9 more occurrences of the digit '4'.
Therefore, by summing up the occurrences from both steps, we get 10 (from step 1) + 9 (from step 2) = 19. However, we counted the '4' in '44' in step 1 already, so we stick with a total count of 19.
