CREATE A 10 DIGIT NUMBER

Find a 10-digit number where the first digit is how many zeros in the number, the second digit is how many 1s in the number etc. until the tenth digit which is how many 9s in the number.

FRACTION WITH ALL DIGITS

Can you arrange the numerals 1 to 9 (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9) in a single fraction that equals exactly 1/3 (one third)? 

Example that doesn't work: 7192/38456 = 0.187

AGE PROBLEM

Jack, John and Julie are talking about their ages.
"When you multiply mine and John's age you get a square number" says Jack.
"In 40 years, Jack will be as old as I am now", says Julie.
"In 10 years, our three  combined ages will be the same square number Jack was talking about" says John.
How old are Jack, John and Julie?

Geometric problem

A circle is inscribed inside an equilateral triangle and an infinite set of circles are nested inside such that each circle touches the previous circle and the edges of the triangle act as tangents.

What fraction of the large red circle do the infinite set of smaller circles represent?
Lets see who gets this one...!!

FORM NUMBERS FROM 1,9,9,9

Today a new thing.. NOT A METHOD.. BUT A PROBLEM... Lets see who cracks it... The goal is to reach numbers from 1 to 100.. by using only 4 digits 1,9,9,9... 
U=You can use addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, power,root,factorial.. But you cant use square or cube.. u cant club numbers like 19 or 99...
so I wish to see at least comments for 50 numbers...
I will give two examples:
1=(9+9)/9-1 or (9-9)/9+1
2= root(9) -1 +(9-9)
Lets search for a genius mathematician here
