Answer:
Let N be the 5 digit number JOINT .
Let J+O+I+N+T=S
required : (J+O+I+N+T)3=JOINT=N(1)
minimum value of N is 10234 and maximum value 98765
10234−−−−−√3≤S≤98765−−−−−√3
21<S<47
But maximum possible S=9+8+7+6+5=35
21<S≤35(2)
N=104J+1000O+100I+10N+T
Take mod w.r.t 9
Since 10n≡1mod9
N≡J+O+I+N+T≡Smod9.
Therefore S3≡Smod9
this is possible if mod values are −1,0 or 1
So eligible values of S consistent with (2)are26,27,28 and 35
263=17576; Digits are not distinct.Discard.
273=19683; Digits are distinct ; 1+9+6+8+3=27 . O.K.
283=21952; Digits are not distinct.Discard.
353=42875; Digits are distinct ; 4+2+8+7+5=26≠35. Discard.
So only solution is 19683
