The people living on Elvis Street in Winchester all decide to buy new house numbers so they line up at Miller's Hardware in order of their addresses: 1, 2, 3, ...
If the store has 100 of each digit, what is the first address that won't be able to buy the digits for its house number?
Solution to the Problem:
The first house that could not buy all its digits for its house number is #163.
The digits are fairly balanced from house #1 to #99, but after that,
the ones are used more, so the ones will run out first. The last house
to purchase all the digits for its house number was #162.
