\r\n" );
document.write( "The other tutor's answer is wrong because the hundreds digit\r\n" );
document.write( "can't be 3 because half of the tens digit is 4, not 3.\r\n" );
document.write( "Let's see what I can do with it.\r\n" );
document.write( "

\n" ); document.write( "i am a six digit number
\n" ); document.write( "
\r\n" );
document.write( "Let's fill in these 6 blanks with digits:\r\n" );
document.write( "_ _ _ _ _ _\r\n" );
document.write( "

\n" ); document.write( "my ones digit is 4
\n" ); document.write( "
\r\n" );
document.write( "That's the 6th digit, so we put a 4 there\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "_ _ _ _ _ 4\r\n" );
document.write( "

\n" ); document.write( "my tens digit is twice my ones digit
\n" ); document.write( "
\r\n" );
document.write( "Twice 4 is 8, so we put an 8 just left of the 4\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "_ _ _ _ 8 4\r\n" );
document.write( "

\n" ); document.write( "my hundreds digit is one half of my tens digit
\n" ); document.write( "
\r\n" );
document.write( "Half of 8 is 4, so we put another 4 just left of the 8\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "_ _ _ 4 8 4\r\n" );
document.write( "

\n" ); document.write( "my thousands digit is five more than my ones digit
\n" ); document.write( "
\r\n" );
document.write( "The ones digit is 4 and 4+5=9, so we put a 9 just left of that:\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "_ _ 9 4 8 4\r\n" );
document.write( "

\n" ); document.write( "and the rest is 6 less than my thousands digit
\n" ); document.write( "
\r\n" );
document.write( "6 less than 9 is 3.  But where does the 3 go?\r\n" );
document.write( "The rest???? But this is supposed to be a 6 digit number!!\r\n" );
document.write( "We have two more digits to fill in!!!  The rest???  What\r\n" );
document.write( "do you mean by the rest???  Is \"the rest\" the first two\r\n" );
document.write( "digits???\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Was it supposed to be only a 5-digit number and you wrote \r\n" );
document.write( "\"6-digit number\" by mistake?  And \"the rest\" means the \r\n" );
document.write( "\"ten thousands digit\" and there are only 5 digits, not 6??\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "If so, then the answer is\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "3 9 4 8 4\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "But if you meant a 6-digit number, then you left out something.\r\n" );
document.write( "Sorry.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
