Definition: "Brazilian" numbers ("les nombres brésiliens" in French)are numbers n such that exists a natural number k with 1<k< (n-1) such that
the representation of n in base k has all equal digits.
1.Prove that all even numbers above 6 are Brazilian numbers.
2. How many odd Brazilian numbers are there below 100?
(In reply to
Part 1 Solution and more by Brian Smith)
Instead of searching for a specific OEIS sequence, search for the word "Brazilian".
This finds many relevant sequences, including
A220570 Numbers that are not Brazilian.
This list starts with 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 11, 17, 19, 23, 25, 29, 37, 41, 47, 49, 53, 59, 61, 67, 71, 79, 83, 89, 97.
There are 23 odd numbers below 100 that are not Brazilian, so there are 27 odd Brazilians below 100.
According to
they are 7, 13, 15, 21, 27, 31, 33, 35, 39, 43, 45, 51, 55, 57, 63, 65, 69, 73, 75, 77, 81, 85, 87, 91, 93, 95, 99
I take no credit for this solution, since all I did was look it up and count
