  1. There are 101 numbers from 200 to 300, inclusive. The last one, 300, has no ‘2’. The other 100 numbers have form 2MN, with M, N being any digit. There are 100 ‘2’ in the first position {2MN}, 10 in the second position {22N}, and 10 in the last position {2M2}. Thus, the total is 120 ‘2’ digits will be written.
    Of course, if she wrote it all in binary, none of the digits will be ‘2’.
