Let T be a positive integer whose only digits are 0s and 1s. If X = T ÷ 12, and X is an integer, what is the smallest possible value of X?

    We have:

    12 = 3 x 4 

    So T \(⋮12\) <=> T \(⋮3and4\)

    T \(⋮3\Leftrightarrow\)The sum of all the number of T \(⋮3\)

    \(\Leftrightarrow\left(1+1+1+...+1+0+...+0\right)⋮3\)

    But T's sum must be different than 0 

    => The smallest sum must be 3 = 1 + 1 + 1 + 0 + 0 + ... + 0

    T divided by 4 <=> Two-last digit must be divided by 4

    => Two last digits must be 00

    => T = 11100

    It's too big :)
