A computer is programmed to scan the digits of the counting numbers. For example, if it scans 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 then it has scanned 17 digits altogether. If the computer begins its task and scans the first 1392 digits starting at 1, what is the last counting number scanned?

    I believed it is "401"

    1-9 = 9 digits

    10-99 = 90 which is 180

    100-200 = 100 which is 300 digits

    9+180 = 189

    1392-189 = 1203

    1200:300=400 which 1200 digits

    401 is the 1392 number scanned
