I am a four digit number.
a=1000 place
b=100
c=10
d=ones
:
Write an equation for each statement:
:
The number in my hundreds place is two less than the number in my ones.
b = d - 2
:
The number in my thousands place is odd.
:
The number in my tens place is twice the number in my thousands
c = 2a
c has to equal 2, or 6; when a = 1 or 3; try a = 3 and c = 6
:
and four more than the number in my ones.
c = d + 4
6 = d + 4
d = 2
then
b = d - 2
b = 2 - 2
b = 0
:
we now have 3 0 6 2, see if that checks out
