222?
Wow! I was way off. Quite a questions, Mr. Swisher!
Slight problem: after further review, the number with the most letters in its name (78, 77, 73 share this honor) is not first alphabetically (18). Last number alphabetically is 22. Of course, it's 1:00 AM and I may have mistyped on Excel.
The last part of the problem means the longest name that cones first in the alphabet.
1716
Yes, 1716 is correct! Now try one of the other problems, if you dare!
