Prime divisors (Posted on 2005-01-04) Difficulty: 3 of 5
6300846559 is such that 6 is divisible by 2; 63, by 3; 630, by 5; 6300, by 7; and, in general, if you take its first N digits, it will be divisible by the N-th prime.

There is only one other such 10 digit number: can you find it?

It found 24 (rather than 23) that were seven digits:
