    Sorry!!

    I think that I didn’t get the question correctly! Let me expalin it to you, maybe ypu can help me where I am wrong.

    As you said each letter means a figure, then we will have (For example):

    e=1, i=2, g=3, h=4, t=5, w=6, o=7, f=8, u=9

    Now, we have still “r” here. Then it must be “0”! Namely:

    r=0

    Since you used “*” among them, we will have:

    F*u*o*r=8*9*7*0=0  => e*i*g*h*t/t*w*o=0!!

     

    Please tell me where I am wrong, Inesh?!

      Hi!

      Yes, it can get only one answer - 0.

      There are only t can be 0, because only t is repeated.

      Oh, when I solved this puzzle, I deleted t at first and forgot it, so I spent all day and only ne[t day understood that t is 0. :-) :-) :-)

      Thank you, dear Inesh.

    It isn't my own puzzle. It came to me on the competition "Kangaroo. Maths".
    Sorry Sahar, I didn;t understand the first question.
    Every letter means one of the 10 figures, not the numbers.
    Darius, and what is your answer?
    How meanings t*h*r*e*e can get?
    • Sahar > Inesh June 26, 2011 17:02
      Yes! In this way we can have a logical answer.

    e*i*g*h*t / f*o*u*r = t*w*o

     

    e*i*g*h*t = f*o*u*r * t*w*o

    e*i*g*h*t = f*o*u * w*o*t*r

    e*e*i*g*h*t = f*o*u * w*o*t*r*e

    e*e*e*i*g*h*t = f*o*u * w*o*t*r*e*e

    h*e*e*e*i*g*h*t = f*o*u * w*o*t*h*r*e*e

    t*h*r*e*e=h*e*e*e*i*g*h*t/f*o*u*w*o

    t*h*r*e*e=h*e*e*e*i*g*h*t*t*r*y/f*o*u*w*o*t*r*y

    t*h*r*e*e= e*i*g*h*t*y*t*h*r*e*e/f*o*u*r*t*y*t*w*o

      Oh!!

      Yes!

      Nice!!

      Very nice...

    Oh!

    Inesh, I don't know!!

    We had some questions like this before. The only difference was this:

    Each letters was coded by numbers according to a logical relation there, but in your puzzle every number is coded by one letter.

    Now, I have 2 questions:

    1-Are these letters coded according to a logical relation?

    2- Have you made this puzzle yourself? (It is really nice, I like it)

    Every letter means a figure.

    Same letters mean the same figures.

    What do you mean, Inesh?!
