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:p:D |

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. |

exactly howw i solved it... i wonder, if there's other way:) |
