2 4's
2 5's
2 6's

1 digit between the 2 4's: 4_4
2 digits between the 2 5's: 5_ _ 5
3 digits between the 2 6's: 6_ _ _ 6

1) start by putting the 5 between the two 4's"
4_4
454

2) 454 forms 3 numbers.
It says there are 3 digits between the 2 6's. so I can place the 2 6 around 454:
_454_
6_ _ _ 6
64546

3) it says that there were two digits between the two 5's:
64546
look at the part that says: 546 4, 6 form two digits, add 5 at the end: 5464

645465 or 564546
