Joe uses 9 different digits out of 0 to 9 to create a 2-digit number, a 3-digit number, and a 4-digit number. He \ffinds the sum of these three numbers is 2014. Do you know which digit is not used?

True or false: Let $\tau({n})$ denotes the number of positive divisors that $n$ has. Then $$\tau({1}) + \tau({2}) +\tau({3}) +\cdots + \tau({2015})$$ is an odd number.
Is it possible to equally divide the set {$1, 2, 3, \cdots, 972$} into 12 non-intersect subsets so that each subset has exactly 81 elements, and the sums of those subsets are all equal?
Eleven members of the Middle School Math Club each paid the same amount for a guest speaker to talk about problem solving at their math club meeting. They paid their guest speaker \$ $\underline{1}\underline{A}\underline{2}$. What is the missing digit A of this 3-digit number?
What is the minimum number of digits to the right of the decimal point needed to express the fraction $\frac{123456789}{2^{26}\cdot 5^4}$ as a decimal?
Back in 1930, Tillie had to memorize her multiplication facts from $0 \times 0$ to $12 \times 12$. The multiplication table she was given had rows and columns labeled with the factors, and the products formed the body of the table. To the nearest hundredth, what fraction of the numbers in the body of the table are odd?
For every composite positive integer $n$, define $r(n)$ to be the sum of the factors in the prime factorization of $n$. For example, $r(50) = 12$ because the prime factorization of $50$ is $2 \times 5^{2}$, and $2 + 5 + 5 = 12$. What is the range of the function $r$, $\{r(n): n \text{ is a composite positive integer}\}$ ?
For how many positive integers $n$ is $\frac{n}{30-n}$ also a positive integer?
Let $S$ be the set of positive integers $n$ for which $\tfrac{1}{n}$ has the repeating decimal representation $0.\overline{ab} = 0.ababab\cdots,$ with $a$ and $b$ different digits. What is the sum of the elements of $S$?
A group of $12$ pirates agree to divide a treasure chest of gold coins among themselves as follows. The $k^\text{th}$ pirate to take a share takes $\frac{k}{12}$ of the coins that remain in the chest. The number of coins initially in the chest is the smallest number for which this arrangement will allow each pirate to receive a positive whole number of coins. How many coins does the $12^{\text{th}}$ pirate receive?
