Numbers $n$ whose representation as the product of two divisors require more digits than that of $n$
Note: Posting in MO since it was unanswered in MSE
Let $f(x)$ be the number of digits in the decimal representation of $x$ e.g. $, f(0) = 1, f(1729) = 4$. If $n = ab$ then we can show that $f(ab) > ...
