Find out all possible groups of three different numbers that add up to 13 and arrange them accordin..

Answer / guest

It is clear that 9 must go with 1 and 3. Also, no digit may
be used in more than two sums. Hence, there are 2 cases:

Case I: If 8 goes with 1 and 4, then 7 goes with 2 and 4,
then 6 goes with 2 and 5.

Case II: If 8 goes with 2 and 3, then 7 goes with 2 and 4,
then 6 goes with 3 and 4.

But in case II, 3 is used in three sums. Hence, Case I is
correct. And the possible arrangements are:

9 3 1 5 6 2

8 7

4 7 2 4 8 1

6 3

5 9

Thus, E must be 4.

Substitute digits for the letters to make the following addition problem true. W H O S E T E E T H A R E + A S ------------------- S W O R D S Note that the leftmost letter can't be zero in any word. Also, there must be a one-to-one mapping between digits and letters. e.g. if you substitute 3 for the letter H, no other letter can be 3 and all other H in the puzzle must be 3.
