Is there a number when squared and when cubed all figures from 0 to 9 are represented.
I give you a solution that is faulty:
42^2 = 86420 and 42^3 = 97531. In these two answers combined every figure (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) is represented, even if they're not in the correct order. So one solution is 42.
No, it is not, this is just an example. 42 is *not* a solution.
Is there a solution? Are there many solutions? How did you do to find it out?
