You can put this solution on YOUR website! Five digits: a,b,c,d,e :
 Write an equation for each statement
 :
 the first digit is 2 more than the last digit
 a = e + 2
 but less than the second digit
 a < b
 the second digit is the third multiple of 3
 b = 9
 while the fourth digit is the second multiple of 3
 d = 6
 the third digit is the difference between the second and the fourth digits
 c = b - d
 c = 9 - 6
 c = 3
 now we have: _ 9 3 6 _
 Could be 89366, 79365, 69364............39361
 what number
