How many different positive integers exist between 106 and 107, the sum of whose digits is equal to 2?
A. 6
B. 7
C. 5
D. 8
E. 18

[spoiler]
IMO - B
1 000 000

sol:
1 in place of each of 6 zeroes - 6
2 000 000 - 1

thus total = 7[/spoiler]

Assuming you meant 10^6 and 10^7 - correct.

10^6 = 1,000,000

As 2 = 1 + 1 = 2 + 0
We can have 6 integers starting with 1 with sum of digits equal to 2 and one integer starting with 2.

Hence, a total of (6 + 1) = 7 integers.

The correct answer is B.
