GeekDad Puzzle of the Week Solution – Palindromic Products

This week’s puzzle, as previously posted:

The smallest three-digit palindromic product of two, two-digits numbers happens to be a perfect square: 11 x 11 = 121. The largest three-digit palindromic product of two, two-digits numbers is 999 = 37 x 27, and the smallest four-digit palindromic product of two, two-digit numbers is 1001 = 91 x 11. The largest four-digit palindromic product of two, two-digit numbers? 91 x 99 = 9009.

This week’s Geekdad Puzzle of the Week is straightforward: What are the largest and smallest palindromic products of the appropriate set of digit-sizes for each of three, four, and five-digit numbers? Note that like two-digits numbers, above, there may be more than one digit-size applicable.
