W H Y

N U T

O O N P

O Y P Y

O U H A

O N E P O P

When you see second multiple (W H Y ) * U = (O Y P Y)

So, The number for U = 6 and Y is (2 , 4) Lets take the value of Y is 4 and replace it in figure.

W H 4

N 6 T

O O N P

O 4 P 4

O 6 H A
O N E P O P

Clearly if you see the yellow portion O + 6 = N and there is no carry to the next digit so we can confirm that
‘N’ is single digit number. If ‘N’ is single digit number ‘O’ should be less than (O < 3)

Let’s take O = 1 and redraw the table…

W H 4

N 6 T

1 1 N P

1 4 P 4

1 6 H A

1 N E P 1 P
If you observe 1 + 6 = N & N + 4 = 1 so, we can clearly the value of N =7

So replace N = 7 and redraw the table.

W H 4

7 6 T

1 1 7 P

1 4 P 4

1 6 H A

1 7 E P 1 P

Take the third multiple (W H 4) * 7 = 1 6 H A from this we get A = 8, and if you replace the H with 3 and w = 2
then the equation satisfies.

Like (2 3 4) * 7 = 1 6 3 8 so redraw the table with particular values.

2 3 4

7 6 T

1 1 7 P

1 4 P 4

1 6 3 8

1 7 E P 1 P
The remaining numbers are (0,5,9) It is simple to analyse we can’t get 5 in place of p because when you
multiply with 4 we cannot get the last digit as 5.

So T = 5, P = 0, E = 9

After redraw the table.

Solution:
First if you see ( D E C ) * C from this we can confirm that two possibilities:

1) E = ( 3, 7, 9 ) and C = 5

2) E = 6 and C = ( 2, 4, 8 )

So now you are in little bit confusion which possibility I should proceed.

If you are not choosing the correct possibility time will be killed off course time is very very precious in
eLitmus exam.

So, better step forward to estimate the correct possibility–)

If you see last multiple ( D E C ) * C = E if you assume C = 5 and E = (3, 7, 9 ) the only possible values ofD = (2,
4, 8) if you keep any value for D then the value E = 0 that is contradiction.

So it is very clear that first possibilities is wrong then go with the second possibility means

E = 6 and C = (2, 4, 8) Let’s take C = 2 Then the table changes as:

A B 2

D 6 2

3 0 4

I A 2

A 2 A 6

A 3 A 0 2 4

Clearly from the table H = 4 and G = 0 (because G + 2 = 2 means G = 0), and F = 3 (C + carry= F).

After filling this values let’s take (A B 2) * 2 = 3 0 4. It happens only when B = 5 and A = 1

Replace the values and redraw the table.

1 5 2

D 6 2

3 0 4

I 1 2

1 2 1 6

1 3 1 0 2 4
From the table (1 5 2) * D = 1 2 1 6 It will happen only when D = 8 and from the line (I + 1 + carry = 1) so from that
we can say I = 9.

Replace all the values,

1 5 2

8 6 2

3 0 4

9 1 2

1 2 1 6

1 3 1 0 2 4

Follow the steps to solve the above puzzle:

Step 1: Look for '0' or '1' in the Multiplier(F B I), sadly we do not find one.

Step 2: Now look at the last terms in each of the individual products of this puzzle, F T B I, S S T B and S A
SF, it is clear that 'S=1' (Because, any other odd number will not give the same value when multiplied to it.)
Now our cryptarithmetic problem will look something like this(I've bolded the I's just to differentiate from the
1's),

Step 3: This step is the most important step in this problem, if you recognize this, you have done a great job.
In the product term, G A 1 * F - -, F*1=F and there will be no carry which is a well known fact. Now, ifyou
look at the product (- A -) * F = 1 A 1 F, you will guess that, F * A leads to a product of 21(because there is 1
in the second term of the resulting product of the considered section of the puzzle, and of course no carry from
the previous product term.). Now, it is not a Rocket Science to guess that F, A should be 3, 7 or 7, 3. Let us
assume that F=3 and A=7, and proceed,

Step 4: Now, looking at the term (G 7 1) * 3 = 1 7 1 3, we can easily make out that G=5. Hence

Step 5: Notice that R=8, which is pretty straightforward, since there is no carry coming through. I, will either
be 5 or 6, depending on whether a carry is coming through or not. Since, A is already 5, I is 6. Hence
the puzzle will look like,

Step 6: Looking at the product term (5 7 1) * - - 6 = 3 T B 6, we find that 5 7 1 * 6 = 3 4 2 6, we can easily say
that, T=4 and B=2. And hence, we have completed solving this cryptarithmetic problem.
