Line 1:
== number of ways to place two ones in three slots ==
This is the number of ways to place two ones in three slots, which is three, times the number of ways to place 0,2-9 in the remaining slot, which is nine. So at least twenty seven is the correct answer. Surely somewhere this task is already covered.--[[User:Nigel Galloway|Nigel Galloway]] ([[User talk:Nigel Galloway|talk]]) 17:00, 8 July 2021 (UTC)
== suggest a task rename ==
I suggest that this (draft) task be renamed to reflect:
::* that ''positive integers'' be specified instead of ''numbers''.
::* that the number '''one''' be found in the number be changed to the ''digit'' '''one''' be found in ...
::* indicate that the integers be expressed in base ten.
::* specify that ''exactly'' two '''one''' digits be found.
The number '''1211''' does have two '''1''' digits in it. It also has a '''1''' digit in it.
I've already modified the (draft) task's requirements (as everyone appears to have already assumed positive base ten numbers). -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 23:27, 8 July 2021 (UTC)
