Ken's POTW
More Money
- A poor college student was quite frugal and sent the following
telegram to his parents. How much MONEY did he want?
SEND + MORE = MONEY
- A friend of the above student liked the idea, but wanted a
little more, so sent a similar telegram. She knew her parents would
send the smallest amount possible. How much MONEY did she want?
SEND + MORE + GOLD = MONEY
In each problem, assume each letter stands for a single digit 0-9.
Although a computer can solve these easily, I'm looking for logical
solutions.
