if you're tired of postwhoring, here's a small problem to think about:
DONALD + GERALD = ROBERT
each letter represents a digit. two letters cannot represent the same digit. it is known that D = 5. find out what other letters represent.
please, don't google; use your own brain.
p.s. for those smartasses who, seeing "donald + gerald = robert" will stray into the subjects of homosexuality and artificial male impregnation, please don't bother

wtf? Is this like the math problem with the train going 65 mph? How long will it take to go from point a to point b when making 3 stops to the stations?
I dunno.

Step 1 - If D= 5, then T = 0
Step 2 - If o + e = o, then e =9
Step 3 - If L + L + 1 = R, then R must be an odd number because two of the same numbers added together give an even number
Step 4 - We know R is odd and greater than 5 because 5 + G = R. We know E = 9 so R must be 7 because it's the only odd number greater than 5 between 6 and 8.
Step 5 - G must be 1 because 5 + 1 + G = 7 and G can't be 0.
Step 6 - L + L + 1 (carried over) = R.R is seven so L is either 3 or 8. we know A + A = E. E = 9 so A = 4 so there has to be a one carried over. Therefore L must be 8.
Step 7 - N + 7 = B, the only numbers left are 2, 3, and 6. So n must be six and B is 3.
Step 8 - O must be 2 because it's the only one left.
