sliding numbers
A number  $n$  is called sliding if there exists two numbers  $x+y=n$  such that
\[ \frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{y} = \frac{n}{10^k} \]
for some  $k\ge0$. Note that  $n/10^k$  is simply  $n$  "shifted" by  $k$  decimal places.

For example, 7 is a sliding number because  $7=2+5$  and  $1/2+1/5=0.7$. Similarly, 646625 is a sliding number because  $256000+390625=646625$  and

\[ \frac{1}{256000}+\frac{1}{390625}=0.00000646625\,. \]

In practice, a number  $n$  is sliding if it can be written as  $x+10^k/x$  for some  $k\ge 0$, where  $x$  is a divisor of  $10^k$. The sliding numbers which are not divisible by 10 are called primitive sliding numbers.

Up to  $10^{18}$  there are only 3861 sliding numbers.

The first sliding numbers are 2, 7, 11, 20, 25, 29, 52, 65, 70, 101, 110, 133, 200, 205, 250, 254, 290, 425, 502, 520, 641, 650 more terms
