let your number be:
abcde
given:
40+000%3C+abcde%3C70+000
ones digit is two more than ten thousands digit: e=a%2B2
All my other digits are the same:->b=c=d
The sum of my digit is 19:
a%2Bb%2Bc%2Bd%2Be=19.....since e=a%2B2, b=c and d=c, we have
a%2Bc%2Bc%2Bc%2Ba%2B2=19
2a%2B3c=19-2
2a%2B3c=17.........since greater than 40000 but less than 70+000->ten thousands digit could be from 4 to 7 but less than 7; so, could be a=4, a=5 or a=6
since given that ones digit is two more than ten thousands digit: e=a%2B2-> a cannot be 6; so,e must be 6, and a=4
2%2A4%2B3c=17
8%2B3c=17
3c=17-8
3c=9
c=3 ->then b=3 and d=3
and your number is: 43336
