The discussion focuses on finding the 8-digit number represented as $A=20\overline{abcd}13$, which must be a multiple of 2013. Participants are tasked with determining the values of the digits $a$, $b$, $c$, and $d$ that satisfy this condition. The method involves checking the divisibility of $A$ by 2013, which can be broken down into its prime factors. Solutions and approaches to calculate the valid combinations of digits are shared among users. Ultimately, the goal is to identify the specific 8-digit number that meets the criteria outlined in the problem.

more than one solution
 
continuing with Greg's solution

A = 20132013 is one solution other solutions are A + 2013 *100 * n as long as 2013 * n < 10000 so n = 0 to 4 giving 20132013(this is A itself) , 20333313, 20534613,20735913, 20937213.
 
Here is a little puzzle from the book 100 Geometric Games by Pierre Berloquin. The side of a small square is one meter long and the side of a larger square one and a half meters long. One vertex of the large square is at the center of the small square. The side of the large square cuts two sides of the small square into one- third parts and two-thirds parts. What is the area where the squares overlap?
