Check if N is divisible by a number which is composed of the digits from the set {A, B}
Last Updated :

Given three integers N, A and B, the task is to find whether N is divisible by any number that contains only A and B as it's digits.
Examples:
Input: N = 106, a = 3, b = 5
Output: Yes
106 is divisible by 53
Input: N = 107, a = 3, b = 5
Output: No
Approach 1 (Recursive):
An efficient solution is to make all the numbers that contains a and b as their digits using recursive function starting with the numbers a and b. If function call is fun(x) then recursively call for fun(x * 10 + a) and fun(x * 10 + b). If n is divisible by any of the number then print Yes else print No.
Below is the implementation of the above approach:
C++
// C++ program to find if number N is divisible by a
// number that contains only a and b as it's digits
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
// Function to check whether n is divisible
// by a number whose digits are either a or b
bool isDivisibleRec(int x, int a, int b, int n)
{
// base condition
if (x > n)
return false;
if (n % x == 0)
return true;
// recursive call
return (isDivisibleRec(x * 10 + a, a, b, n)
|| isDivisibleRec(x * 10 + b, a, b, n));
}
bool isDivisible(int a, int b, int n)
{
// Check for all numbers beginning with 'a' or 'b'
return isDivisibleRec(a, a, b, n) ||
isDivisibleRec(b, a, b, n);
}
// Driver program
int main()
{
int a = 3, b = 5, n = 53;
if (isDivisible(a, b, n))
cout << "Yes";
else
cout << "No";
return 0;
}

// number that contains only a and b as it's digits
import java.util.*;
class solution
{
// Function to check whether n is divisible
// by a number whose digits are either a or b
static boolean isDivisibleRec(int x, int a, int b, int n)
{
// base condition
if (x > n)
return false;
if (n % x == 0)
return true;
// recursive call
return (isDivisibleRec(x * 10 + a, a, b, n)
|| isDivisibleRec(x * 10 + b, a, b, n));
}
static boolean isDivisible(int a, int b, int n)
{
// Check for all numbers beginning with 'a' or 'b'
return isDivisibleRec(a, a, b, n)
||isDivisibleRec(b, a, b, n);
}
// Driver program
public static void main(String args[])
{
int a = 3, b = 5, n = 53;
if (isDivisible(a, b, n))
System.out.print("Yes");
else
System.out.print("No");
}
}

Approach 2 (Queue Based):
The idea is to generate all numbers (smaller than n) containing digits a and b. For every number check if it divides n or not. How to generate all numbers smaller than n? We use queue for this. Initially we push 'a' and 'b' to the queue. Then we run a loop while front of queue is smaller than n. We pop an item one by one and for ever popped item x, we generate next numbers x*10 + a and x*10 + b and enqueue them. Time complexity of this approach is O(n).
Please refer below post for implementation of this approach.
