Four Digit and Two Digit Treat (Posted on 2015-12-13) Difficulty: 3 of 5
The respective two digit numbers 20 and 16 are formed by considering the first two digits and the last two digits of 2016 in order. Also, 2016/(20+16)= 56, so that, 2016 is evenly divisible by the sum of the two 2-digit numbers considering its first two digits and the last two digits.

(i) Determine five numbers following 2016 that possess this property.

(ii) Determine five numbers preceding 2016 that possess this property.

*** No leading zero is permissible for any of the numbers.
