The following is a list of positive integers smaller than the given solution of 11111111100, yet satisfy the conditions that each can be written entirely with zeroes and ones and each is evenly divisible by 225. 


1232100 can be written as 1001110  
1947375 can be written as 111010111  
102212100 can be written as 10010110  
121220100 can be written as 10011010 
123210000 can be written as 10011100

225 written in binary, 1110001, is written entirely with zeroes and ones and, of course, would also be evenly divisible by 225. But, as stated in earlier posts, as 225 is written without a radix, we must assume all numbers written without a radix to be in the same base, and if not indicated otherwise, that base is the decimal base 10.
