0 Guest Posted March 7, 2009 Report Share Posted March 7, 2009 I've only been working number 1 but this sticks out in my head How can T has to equal zero for T+Y to = Y but in the tens collumn T+S=E and there aren't any carry overs because if there were then T+Y wouldn't = Y (unless Y can represent two different numbers. Is this the case or is there a flaw in the above thinking?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this the case or is there a flaw in the above thinking?) Yes, Y can represent two different numbers. It represents one number above the line (that is, in the number BEAUTY), and a different number below the line (that is, in the number DISNEY). Furthermore, the two values are different by 1. (These are the OP's explanations. So, Y + T = Y does not imply that T = 0. In fact, it implies that T = 1 or T = 9. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 I believe one (or ten) possible solution(s) for number three could be: 942318 +44806 ====== 987124 where p=b could be any number between 0 to 9 Great fun! Thanks for the brain-teasers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
