(In reply to thoughts on solution by Daniel)

Daniel, I donīt know what happened. When in the queue, a JM asked me to change from "3" to "5" (what I did) since the answer to "3" is a 10-digit number.

Using the computer, you will find quickly the answer to "5", but thereīs an analytical way to find it?
