In some large data set A, the frequencies at which each number appears follow the Benford's law. Recall the percentage of a digit appears out of all the digits (0−90-9) is given by: P(d)=log⁡(1+1d)P(d)=\log(1+\frac{1}{d})

For example, if we want to know what percentage of the numbers appear were 22, we plug in d=2d=2. P(2)=log⁡(1+12)=log⁡(32)≈17.6%P(2)=\log(1+\frac{1}{2})=\log(\frac{3}{2})\approx 17.6\%

The number 11 appeared 300300 times in data set A, approximately how many times did the number 55 appear?
