Question 620752: My thousands digit is twice my hundred thousands digit. My hundreds digit is 4 less than my ten thousands digit. My ones digit is more than my hundreds digit. My tens digit is 2 less than my hundreds digit. If my ones digit is 7 and my thousands digit is 6, what number am I? Answer by ankor@dixie-net.com(22740) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! let a = the 100k digit
let b = the 10k digit
let c = the 1k digit
let d = the 100s digit
let e = the 10's digit
let f = the units
:
Write an equation for each statement
:
My thousands digit is twice my hundred thousands digit.
c = 2a
:
My hundreds digit is 4 less than my ten thousands digit.
d = b - 4
:
My ones digit is more than my hundreds digit.
f > d; "I think you should have told us how much more"
:
My tens digit is 2 less than my hundreds digit.
e = d - 2
:
If my ones digit is 7
f = 7
:
and my thousands digit is 6,
c = 6
:
In the 1st equation, replace c with 6
6 = 2a
divide both sides by 2
a = 3
Now we we have 3 b 6 d e 7
:
ABout all we can do with the information given, we have to know how much d is less than 7
