A palindrome is a number that has the same value when read from left to right or from right to left. (For example 12321 is a palindrome.) Let NN be the least three-digit integer which is not a palindrome but which is the sum of three distinct two-digit palindromes. What is the sum of the digits of NN?
A. 2
B. 3
C. 4
D. 5
E. 6

回文数.设NN是最小的这种三位数:不是回文数且是三个不同的两位回文数之和.问NN的数位之和是多少?
Two-digit palindromes must be of the form aa‾\overline{aa}. Thus immediately 11∣N11|N as a sum of three multiplies of 11. Smallest three-digit multiple is 110. Good news is that it is not a palindrome. We can easily rewrite as, for example, 22+33+5522 + 33 + 55.

Answer

A. 2
