What is the smallest number divisible by 225 that consists of all 1’s and 0’s?

My answer is 11111111100 (decimal).
Why?
225 = 9 * 25. If you add all the digits of a decimal number and the sum is a multiple of 9, then the original number is also a multiple of .
That means the number must have at least nine 1's in it.
It must also be a multiple of 25.
100 is the smallest multiple of 25 that does not ruin the sequence of 1's, hence 11111111100.

You are correct. I also misread the question.

Nope, once. It’s a balance scale, so assuming the heavier ball is on one side the first time around, that pan will be lower. If two identical weight balls are used the first time, you have to try at least one more to find the heavier ball.
