Question

In the equation a + b + c + d + e = fg where fg is the two digit number whose value is 10f + g and letters a, b , c , d , e, f and g each represent different digits. If fg is as large as possible. What is the value of g?

Answer 1

Answer:

g = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

In the equation a + b + c + d + e = fg where fg is the two digit number whose value is 10f + g and letters a, b , c , d , e, f and g each represent different digits. If fg is as large as possible. What is the value of g?

fg Would be largest

if a , b , c , d & e

are 9 , 8 7 ,6 & 5

=> Sum = 35 then g = 5 which is not possible

9 , 8 , 7 , 6 4 can result in 34  having 4 repeated

33 itself has 3 repeated

so Largest possible number = 32

9 + 8 + 6 + 5 + 4 = 32

=> g = 2
