Hints
Given the equation below:
ABCDC
- BEAAC
------------
BADAD
and the information that D=0, find the numerical value for each letter given in the equation. (Note: Each letter will be a single digit number and each letter will represent a different number). Be sure to show your work.
First substitute in 0 wherever you see the letter D. So our problem will look like the following:
ABC0C
- BEAAC
------------
BA0A0
This is from the given that D=0
What is your next guess? (Hint look at the tens column, what do you remember about subtracting?)
Hint: Solve for A but remember what we know about borrowing from another number!!!
