Question 120

If p and q represent digits, what is the possible maximum value of q in the statement 5p9 + 327 + 2q8= 1114?

Solution

We can break the sum according to 500 + 10p +9 + 327 + 200 + 10q + 8 = 1114
 or 1027 + 17 + 10(p+q) = 1114
 or (p+q) = 7
so for q to be maximum p will be zero then q = 7
